Today has been a day.

Today has been a day.  I didn't sleep well because my lower back hurts.  I've been wondering off and on for a couple of weeks if I have a UTI, but secretly hoping that I did not because I didn't want to go to a doctor in person.  I think after today I can no longer deny it.  I called the CARES clinic and they will do a tele-health appointment with me in the morning.  I'm grateful to not have to go in, but a little sketchy of the idea of not having labs done.  I guess we'll see how that goes.  Until then I'm guzzling water and downing Tylenol for the pain.  Fun times.

In other super fun news:  I broke the power button on my phone about 6 weeks ago.  It's still attached and looks normal, but doesn't work at all.  I figured "Meh, no biggie unless I need to turn my phone off or on."  Well, it had been ok until today, when it VERY CLEARLY needed to be restarted.  I didn't know what to do, but Shaun found an accessibility menu that I could use rather than the power button.  Yay, right?  Well, it would have been yay had he hit the "Restart" option rather than the "Power Off" option.  🤦‍♂️

We spent hours figuring out how to turn my phone back on.  Thankfully, it is on and working fine and now I know what to do if it needs restarting again.  I was really hoping to not need to replace it before I get a job, so if it can hang in there just a few more months (which I think it can) I'll be happy.  We're prepaid and don't buy expensive phones and I've had this one a little over 2 years, so I feel that I've gotten my money's worth out of it.

Another little oddity of the day:  I tried to refill my Cymbalta a few days ago before I ran out and when I checked the status of the order today, my app said that there was a problem.  I called the pharmacy and was told that they were out but had ordered some.  Then they said they had some but couldn't find it.  Then they asked me if I'd be ok with a partial refill until the others came in.  Since no one told me of this issue ahead of time I agreed to the partial refill because I don't want to mess up my "taking my meds" schedule.  My sleep has finally gotten normal and I like that.  So I went to pick up my partial prescription and they gave me THREE. WHOLE. PILLS.  😂😂😂  Whatever.  At least I can take my medicine on time in the morning.

Anyway, I'm off to study while I feel somewhat ok.  I have an exam on Thursday and I only feel good on about half of the material.  Gotta get good on that other 50% so I can ace this class!  🤓
