I took seroquel last night at 11:30 so I didn’t wake up until almost 9am and even then I forced myself because I feel lazy when I wake up past 9. Even though I can’t go help around the house today. I might take a nap because I’m still very tired.

RS is hopefully getting paid from that side job today. He made $2000 so I suppose it was worth it but he said the aggravation and time spent away from us isn’t worth the money. It’s nice though that we’ll be able to pay his vehicle insurance and mortgage without worrying. I was definitely worried because I’m not getting paid a dime this week and maybe even next paycheck in two weeks considering the amount of time I’ve been home. But what can I do, Covid is obviously still a major problem and I’ve been affected. I have a feeling I will continue to be affected as cases are extremely high in my state and only climbing. I think my son will continue to be exposed at school and be quarantined many more times. I plan to get proof every time and turn it into HR so they hopefully won’t fire me over my absences at the end of the year.

I slipped down the basement steps yesterday when I went down to get my laundry and boy am I hurting. I’m not seriously injured, I just hurt where I landed. My knee is very painful but in a way it often is so I’m not sure it’s related. I refuse to go to the dr for my knee, I will just be sent to physical therapy and I don’t have time or money for that. I really just have to start exercising again!

I downloaded a food journal app that lets you track and time stamp meals but doesn’t record calories or carbs. That was upsetting me. I’m trying to figure out if my intestinal issues are food related. So far I am establishing that I MAY have a gluten intolerance. I’ll keep tracking through December and then maybe try to reduce gluten intake in January and see what happens if the pattern continues.
