I'll confess that we did a little overspending. I feel that hubby and I could easily manage for months on what we have at home, if I plan strategically. I bought a lot of long-lasting things, as I mentioned yesterday.

I'm embarrassed to say that I have not taken a shower or washed my hair since my salon appointment last Thursday. I have done some wash cloth baths, but that's it. Part of it has been just forgetting, and other being too busy. For some odd reason, I have grown to hate the whole process. I know that it's not that uncomfortable at all. It is very hard to understand my reluctance.
I also overspent on my recent trip to the grocery-- I suppose it may be sort of a natural response, givem the current situation.

And I also really, really struggle taking care of all my hygiene requirements. I also am embarrassed by this. The simplest things can become almost insurmountable for me when I am symptomatic, which is most of the time these days. I have no clue what any of this is actually all about. No insight there whatsoever. But I certainly relate. Hang in there. We will march through it--somehow...
