Roll Call 186

I have to wipe down my ginger ale. There's this guy who almost follows me around and he looks like he's in heroin withdrawal all the time. He sat next to me and started weird coughing that got germs all over my bottle. I'll be glad when they refill the machine on Thursday. I miss Coke. I'd rather have Pepsi but Coke is ok.

Thank you, Kit!

I have to keep trying to blow my vapor out of my mouth instead of my nose. Now that I'm using a sub ohm tank my nose gets really runny from the vapor. I'm totally out of practice though.

I've had a rough day yesterday because my newly adopted dog was throwing up much of the very early morning of Tuesday. (It started around 2am and continued until about 5am.) So I was up with her half the night. The vet's office was able to get her in early but they found nothing wrong even after a lot of expensive blood tests. They sent us off with some anti-vomit pills and the advice of giving the dog boiled chicken to eat.

Besides my worry about my dog the whole thing was traumatic because my previous dog was vomiting before she died and when I took her to the vet then, he found nothing wrong with her. He wasn't concerned and a week later she died.

I was a wreck yesterday but got a good night's sleep last night (so did my new dog) and we both feel better.

Today we go to my folk's place for our usual visit. I'm always calmer on these days so that should help a lot.

Hope everyone has a peaceful day.

Hey guys, I’m checking in. I’m doing good. Been practicing painting a lot, lately I’ve been using color pencils, I want to be able to use all mediums before I can decide which one I want to focus. My target is to be able to sell my art by summer next year.

Ever since Nick got his driving license, he kept taking me out after work. He comes home, changes his clothes right away then he says, “Come on Maxi, let’s go out on an adventure”. Yesterday we were about to have dinner at this restaurant nearby but the waiting hour is an hour, so instead of waiting we just kept driving and ended up in another State haha. Nick isn’t comfortable with the highway yet so we drove through the forest. I saw deers crossing the street, worried about the wild animals here when they do that because I saw them getting hit by cars a few times. It’s a completely new experience to me though to see wild animals just wandering by. I saw big bunnies too.

We got rain a lot this summer. In laws told me it usually doesn’t rain this much, joking that I must be bringing rain with me when I moved. Anyway fall is near right? I’ve been putting a list of warm clothes that I would need to buy. All my clothes that I brought with me are for summer. If you guys have any suggestion of clothes that I would need, that’d be appreciated. Can’t wait for my first fall, all the changing colors must be beautiful.

Great, my town has been classified as an area of substantial transmission by the CDC. (for Covid). I'm not going anywhere accept for grocery shopping and to that vocational rehabilitation program once I'm accepted into it

Good to see you back @Angelique67 , was worried about you

ooh the local ice cream place/convenience chain in my area has a new seasonal vanilla cannoli creme latte cold brew. I love cannoli's anyway so I'd probably like that

The imaging center called me. The machine broke. Sigh. They called a technician but they don't know that it will be up and running by the time of my appointment. Of course they don't know for sure (which is making it hard for me to know whether or not to leave work early). But if it's not fixed in time then they will reschedule me. I'm beyond frustrated. First it took two months for this appointment to get scheduled. Then it was supposed to be on Friday but they didn't have a doctor. Now it's the machine broke. They were like, we'll call you. Frustrated. Frustrated. Frustrated.

To make matters worse, I called my T's office to pay for yesterday's appointment and to schedule a new one and she was like, Oh I'm not at my desk so I'll have to call you back. So I'm trying to not forget about it in case they don't call me back. Then I need to remember otherwise I won't have a T appointment and I'll owe them money and I detest owing money if I can help it. Frustrated. Frustrated. Frustrated.

Yeah I did! It feels pretty good. So far, I am liking it. More independence.

I have to get motivated to work from home though.

I guess motivation will always be somewhat of an issue for me, but I can work with it.

I might go to my friend's house tomorrow. I'm unsure though. It's so hot out, there's been a heat advisory every day, and I don't want to walk that far on multiple APs that cause problems with heat tolerance. Idk. But at the same time I really want to see him since it's been so long since we've hung out. I should go though.

Next week they're having bingo here my apartment case manager said, she said she'll let me know the exact date and time when it's closer to it. I'll be calling the bingo cards or whatever that's called. I'm nervous about it. But I did volunteer for it.

I'm waiting on my care manager to stop by and pick up that application I filled out so she can send it in. I also need to sign a consent form for the agency to be able to talk to her and my psychiatrist.

edit: All right, she just came here, I gave her the application, she'll submit it for me and said she'll keep me updated!

On the mammogram saga, the appointment is back on.....for now. The imaging center called and said they got the machine up and could I still make 2 o'clock. I was like, YES! At this point, regardless of the outcome, I just want the stupid thing done and over with.

I tried to sleep in but I'm so used to waking up early that I woke up an hour earlier than I have been when sleeping in without work, hiking, appointments etc.

I think the Monero (XMR) project will be bigger than Bitcoin. Bitcoin will go to 0 dollars I think. I just need to wait for the USB drives to arrive and then I'll put money into it.

I took an extra Vyvanse and will probably read for a bit.

Today is a relax day..

Hmm.. My mom wants to go on a small hike. It's a nice day so I'll do that =]

Love my PsychDoc

he literally said he has another patient just like me who is pregnant as well. and he said what he did was call the university of oklahoma and spoke to psychiatric obgyn in charge at the university and said he recommended one of three medicines while pregnant.

I live close to the OK border so if you’re wondering why

I’m like “wow. that’s commitment to the job”

He took me off haldol and put me on Latuda

Congrats Newtus! I must have missed your post but I didn't know you were pregnant

Yeah latuda is category b not C like the rest, good luck with the new med!

I am struggling with motivation. I have a work project due this coming Monday and it seems so overwhelming and massive. I have done like 33% of it so far.

Don't put the baby on Latuda! No jk good luck Newtus =]

I went for the hike - It was good. I barely have heart OCD anymore - I don't even check my pulse anymore - Not even ONCE a day! D: There was a point where I checked it 200-300 times a day.

I see my doctor tomorrow to ask him about the red bumps all over my body.. I'm gonna update him and tell him that I'm doing good because of these meds. This 6 months has been way better than the previous.

I do want to lower the Invega Trinza injection but I'm not in a rush to do it. I'd rather ask my psychiatrist when I see him to switch the 2x 5mg Dexedrine IR's for a 15mg XR and update him and then I'll be good for another 3 months.

My mom is making chicken noodle soup after the hike. I'm craving a cookie but she said to wait !! But there's also a cinnamon bun that she got from the farmers market. I would have went with her this morning but I'm not interested in gatherings like that at all - I went last year and had DP/DR so maybe that's why.

My sister is being released from the hospital yay!

Thank you

I gained some motivation luckily. I think the Klonopin is sapping my motivation. However, just even knowing that I can go down on it helps me get motivated.

It’s 5am

I feel like crap. Nauseous and headache-y. I’ll be ok, im just pregnant. Blah.

Wonderful!!!

When I went to the imaging center yesterday for my appointment, they checked me in. Then they called me up and said the machine had broken again. I was like, are you kidding me? So they asked me to sit down and wait and a tech would be out to talk to me. So I sat down and waited maybe 15 minutes. A tech came and got me. They sat me down and explained what was going on with the machine and did I want to try to get the images? I was like, heck yeah, I'm here, let's do it. So it took some manipulating and two technicians but they took the images. Then I went across the hall and had the ultrasound done. The ultrasound tech volunteered some good information. So finally this saga can be closed. I just have to wait for the doctor's report. Which I imagine they will send to my Primary Care Provider who might get around to telling me the results. Last time she didn't. It was the imaging center calling me asking me why I hadn't made an appointment yet. No, they didn't call, they sent a letter, that's right. Otherwise I never would have known!!
