N3 had to go to the credit union today so I drove him. He bought me lunch/dinner. I'm thinking that after I'm finally moved, I will get my mom and her husband some flowers or a plant. (Not that my mom doesn't have a plethora of plants already!) Maybe just flowers.
@childofchaos831 , glad to see you around! Keep posting. I've done zero as to moving today. Zero. I feel like there is so much to do yet nothing to do. It's odds and ends, but it's not. Nobody has contacted me today- not about when I can pay and sign the lease, nor about the inspection. I'm getting anxious as its Monday already! __________________ Ingrezza 80 mg Propranolol 40 mg Benztropine 1 mg Vraylar 1.5 mg Mania (July/August 2024) Mania (December 2023) Mixed episode/Hypomania (September 2023) Depression, Anxiety and Intrusive thoughts (September 2021) Depression & Psychosis (July/August 2021) Mania (April/May 2019) Last edited by Moose72; Sep 28, 2020 at 04:02 PM.. |

Our friend passed away this morning. We took care of the funeral arrangements because his wife was in rough shape, understandably.
He left on his own terms and passed away peacefully in his sleep. The funeral is on Wednesday. __________________ * Dx: Unspecified Bipolar and Related Disorder * Rx: Remeron, Prozac, Klonopin My avatar picture is a photo of the Whirlpool Galaxy I took in April 2023.

I've always found that the most challenging part of moving is the end, the "odds and ends, but not" stage. The great thing is that when you've completed that stage, you know you truly are done with the hardest work of packing up. If you don't hear from anyone by tomorrow morning, will you call them? __________________ |

My son is sick. He vomited all day yesterday. He hasn't eaten in 2 days. But wont try and eat crackers or dry toast. He has no appetite. We don't know if its food poisoning or the stomach flu. I hate seeing him so sick. Hes finally sleeping now.
I expect a panic attack tonight. I'm not going to take my meds until 11pm. I'll probably have one around 7pm. Just have to be strong and go through it. It will be 4-6 hours. Ugh! |

This one is called the "Glass" fire. Another massive one, 0% containment. And there's another major fire burning down in SoCal.
Sometimes I get down on myself for feeling anxious, then I think Oh, yeah, this year...no wonder I'm feeling anxious. __________________ |

Scooter9, I am sorry about the loss of your friend. Loss of loved ones sucks! I wish it wasn't inevitable in life. Hugs
Cool breeze, I hope your son feels better soon. Please help keep him hydrated. If his vomiting continues, please call his doc. |

What an afternoon for me! GP told me to go to Urgent Care, so Hubby took me. For some reason my mood skyrocketed. I had been a bit revved up before that, but the anxiety heightened it more. I had an xray and luckily it didn't show any significant damage. I was told just likely a sprained neck and back, so rest and avoidance of strain is recommended.
At the urgent care they took my blood pressure twice. The first reading was a whopping 200 / 145. The second 185 / 113. I asked if I should expect to keel over and die, then I found it humorous and disturbing to the point of anxious laughter. The nurse and doctor didn't seem that concerned, oddly. Regardless, I asked the doc to write the readings down. By chance, I have a tele appointment with my nephrologist tomorrow morning, who also specializes in hypertension. I'll share this data since he's not exactly taking my blood pressure himself. He has my blood test results showing still high, but reduced, cholesterol and triglycerides. My kidney function was slightly worse. [You know, Lithium can really suck! I wish I had never taken that med!] When I got home, I took my meds (including propranolol) and soaked in a lavender epsom salt bath. I took my blood pressure four times, 40 minutes later, and it averaged 130 / 80. Still high, but not as scary. I'll measure again in the morning. Maybe I will push for something that might help. I know my pdoc would appreciate that, too. Despite the ultra high blood pressure readings, my heart rate was fine all times. Thanks propranolol, but wish you helped my blood pressure more! It's odd that at almost my very same weight in the past (15 years ago) that my blood pressure and cholesterol were normal. Age and medications must indeed be the culprits. Boo!

I got out for coffee today and took a shower. Scrabble is going well. My dog and i are getting along. Our COVID numbers are soaring. I hope we don't have to go back into lockdown.
@Soupe du jour: Glad your aches and pains are just sprains. Tho i'm sure it's no fun. I just mean that it's good it's not something more serious. Sometimes my mood jumps up when there is a crisis. Do you think that's what happened today? Hugs to all who struggle, especially those effected by the wildfires. |
