Fudge man! I can't sleep again, and I took 400mg of seroquel two hours ago and just took 10mg of melatonin (psychiatrist said I could do this). This is getting ridiculous. Sigh. I guess I'll just lay in the dark for a while and listen to my music.

The thing about melatonin is that it’s not a quick med, it takes an hour or more for it to start to affect you. Not like sleeping pills. Sorry yer having such a hard time raspberry.

Good morning. Waiting on my apartment inspection. We have them once a month (I live in supportive housing) it’s quick and easy but I still hate them lol but anyway that’s at 10:30am. It’s a little after 8:30am now.

I slept decently. I was considering pulling an all nighter last night and am so glad I didn’t. At least I got some sleep.

I had breakfast, read a bit, took my morning meds, cleaned some, fed my cat, brushed my teeth, got dressed, put some chicken thighs in the fridge to thaw. After the inspection I’m going to sit outside for a bit to get some fresh air and read some more. Then I’m getting on the treadmill for 30 minutes. After I make/eat lunch I’ll practice violin and do some artwork. That’s the plans for today. Tomorrow I have an appointment with my psychiatrist.

Waiting for the doctors office to call me back! They are trying to find something else for my back pain.

Edit: I’ve been waiting for hours and I’m still in pain! I’m at Panera but I don’t dare drive home in case they call while I’m driving!

The oscillation between high and lows have been rough this weekend. I'm hoping I'll feel better soon.

Not sure, the apartment building was built only 7 years ago so everything was brand new then. I moved in 5 years ago and it just went out today, I’ve never had to replace one either. Hopefully they have the part they might have to order it or something. The oven/stove is the kind where it’s built into the counters

Good morning, or is it? I’m so discombobulated from my active night. My sheet is a twirled mess in the middle of the bed. Weird dreams too, too weird to try and write down. I’m still tired this morning. Glad I have nothing pressing to do this morning. Well I gotta get going, it’s 11:30 already and I do have things to .

Why is it so hard to find black and white striped tights?

The new Pale Waves album is SO GOOD!!! OH MY GOD! THEY'RE BACK!

I cleaned and vacuumed and did the dishes and scrubbed the toilet bowl (which badly needed a good scrub. Yick!) and did the cat litters. Have to get my booty in the shower next. And have a vape. I really need a vape right now. I don't even remember when I eventually fell asleep last night, but I woke up at 5AM.

I posted a question in one of the groups I'm part of on Facebook, asking if they had their septum pierced and if it hurt, and almost everyone said it didn't, so I'm expecting it to be EXTREMELY painful, which is fine.

BRING ON THE PAIN!!!!

I AM STRONG!!! 💪 💪 💪

5:26am Wednesday morning. I have to go to a printing place today because I need documents printed for workers comp and I’m not at work and I don’t have a printer at home. Woke up twice last night then awake and up since 4:50 when my partner left for work. Weird dreams. I don’t remember it all but I know it had my dad who has passed in my dream. I’m off to play Wordle. Might check in later ….

I see my GI doctor in about an hour. I seriously don't know how much more of this I can take. I fell asleep with the heating pad on and it helped. But now its just the same stuff. As normal.

I found the show Big Brother on Paramount+ and I'm watching the season with Ariana Grandes brother. So I have no idea whats even going on in the news and I don't care to know.

I haven't gotten anything from Starbucks or Dunkins in 2 days because I haven't felt like getting coffee.

I'm having a pretty relaxing day. I slept well, did pilates, spent a lot of the day reading. I really need to clean, but I absolutely HATE cleaning.

I have been having dissociation today along with a panic attack out of nowhere. I see my pdoc tomorrow, but he has been reluctant to make med changes of late. I really wish I could get something for anxiety/panic, but it's not likely. I HAVE stopped reading the news - well, at least, I've made it 3 days without reading any news - and I have to admit that HAS helped me some.

I’ve been avoiding the mail too. Much easier with not getting my email. I don’t know what I’m going to do about that. They won’t accept that I’m who I am. And I don’t want to switch it’s such a hassle Andy I don’t know peoples email. All I had to do was put in the first two letters and then click. I kept trying to call then my daughter called for me and they refused to accept my dL and a picture for I’d. But without getting my twice daily newsletter from you cnn and NPR life is calmer without the political news.

I’ve been making more of an effort to mingle with the others. I had errands to run but when I got back I played 10,000 for a while and lots of people stopping by today. It was only for 2 hrs but that’s all I could handle. There’s 500 tonight but I’m not sure I’m going to go.

My GI doctor is putting me on Compazine. It was used back in the day for an AP but now its used for nausea and other GI stuff. I read it can help with anxiety too.

He also ordered a CT scan for Monday that will look at the pain I've been having in my side and back. I need to pick up the contrast from the hospital in tommorow morning.

So hopefully something works out.

The other med was going ok, it was just starting to mess wIth my weight. I haven't read anything about compazine and weight.

No UTI. OBGYN is calling tomorrow! I have an appointment Thursday in my primary dr’s office. No ovarian cancer! Dunno about the really painful sex the day before my period started! We’ll discuss that tomorrow. Lower back still hurts. Pelvic ultrasound Monday.

The sauce on my sandwich at Panera must've had vinegar in it because my inner cheeks and tongue have sores on them now! Yup! It has Worcestershire sauce which contains vinegar! It’s the bacon turkey bravo sandwich. I have eaten it plenty of times without issue. They at least changed the sauce recently!

Also my mouth is more dry than usual lately.

I'm very unhappy with how inactive i am so i did ten laps of the hallway plus stretching. I built up good heat. I'm really happy about my exercise! It's a start! The distance between zero and one is huge. By that i mean the difference between doing nothing and doing something is huge. Yay!!!

Hugs to all in need!

I think Panera recently changed the sandwich because it was my favorite sandwich before.
