I was too relaxed from this new indica strain + alprazolam yesterday evening. I went to sleep.. Then woke up for work.

There's no time for creative genius thoughts anymore... They have disappeared.. I have failed to meditate - But I'll keep procrastinating it on my mind.

My dreams were crazy.. Too much DMT in my brain when I'm unconscious..

I'm going to try ordering pizza and pop this weekend. I'll have to order from a chain because I want at least 6 liters of soda.

I'm still waiting for the maintenance man to give me a new lock and key for my larger dresser. Then I can unpack more. And I need to arrange my showers because I can't wash my hair, etc. I need help with my hair. That was the only good thing about my last location here.

Mom got admitted into the hospital. They ruled out stroke. But they have a bunch of other tests to run. Mom was ready to come home but the doctor said he didn't think that was a good idea. I took a long break at work and went to the hospital to see her and drop off her glasses and a sweatshirt and a few things that she needed. Although how she is going to wear the sweatshirt with the IV is beyond me so I just put it over her legs because she was cold. My sister is asking if she should come down but I don't know what to tell her. They probably aren't going to find anything. But at least it wasn't a stroke. I guess they did a Cat Scan. My Dad didn't seem to really know what tests were run. Hopefully Mom will be well enough to be discharged tomorrow but we will have to wait and see.

Mom was really dizzy this morning and couldn't even stand up or sit up. My dad helped her to the bathroom but then he called an ambulance. He said he was afraid to transport her to the hospital in case she fell.

The new third roommate is ok but she has her tv super loud. That's how loud I need it which is why I don't watch tv here. I watch Pluto TV on my phone with headphones. And she needs her own walker.

I got replacement wrist bands for my Fitbit Charge 3, so now I can start tracking my steps and my sleep again

I hope the Zelda coffee mug I ordered isn't broken when it arrives
BB, having less dopamine means we have less motivation, don't be sorry. I shower twice a week and I can only motivate myself to brush my teeth in the morning.

This sounds weird, but it takes a certain amount of motivation to play videogames. I use to be addicted to them, now I play them for 5 minutes and sigh because i can't enjoy them anymore. Also you read a lot of books. That's a solid win. = )

Thanks SP. I bought it on Audible. Ill start it monday = )

Today was productive, but man, i had the silent crew lol Nobody felt like talking, and since the yelling mexican comes back tuesday, its been a headphones kind of week. I miss the drama. Today was very long, but we basically finished a place.

I bought my two bottles of wine for my two weekend days. I enjoy wine more than beer. This is strange i know, but I'm turning into my mom hahaha. jk jk. But seriously, no migraines this way.

I've had a lot of second thoughts running through my head about my story, I forgot the roots of my story, and I know where they sprouted from, went I wrote it I was subconsciously aware that I had PTSD it seems. Really cool that I found this way to pick myself up as my character picked himself up. = )

She asked if the tv was loud and I said yes so eventually she lowered the volume. These rooms are small. Next time you're in a tv store, check out cross play of 3 on different channels. I didn't want her to feel bad so I said it was ok before she lowered the volume. She has sensory issues, her vision and hearing. I'd ask but I don't want to pry. Neither I nor the original resident of this room have turned our tv sound on, we both use headphones.

What kind of wine did you get? I don’t know much about wine. I used to drink it every now and then. But then I worried it would like cause me to die or something if it interacted with my meds and I haven’t drank any alcohol since. I don’t think that’s likely though, I’m just an anxious person that overthinks things,so maybe if I get over my fear eventually I can try some again. I really enjoy Baileys/Carolann’s

I have some French lavender wax melting. It smells so nice. It’s raining and I’m reading.

This brings back memories of RCIA. I never knew what kind of candle they had on in our meeting room but it smelled almost just like this so it was probably lavender too.

I’m so excited to sleep tonight. I only slept 4 hours last night and I’m really tired now.

I have a video appointment with my therapist on Monday. I think I’ll talk to her about my problems leaving the house.

I’m making those chocolate chip chopped walnut cookies tomorrow. I also have to clean since my sister is coming over Sunday and I want the apartment to look nice.

We rescued a kitten tonight...not to keep because I’m allergic but we ended up calling the cops because we couldn’t catch it, even though it was injured. They took it to an animal care place. It was a solid black kitty.

I'm taking a break from social media/internet type stuff for a week. Just to give my mind a break.
