It's 5 in the morning and I JUST finished writing all the paragraphs...

It's 5 in the morning and I JUST finished writing all the paragraphs.  I literally haven't moved from this chair since I started writing except to get food and pee.  It has not been a fun day.

I'll check over my paper tomorrow and work on my presentation.  Also, I still have to study my Algebra and History.  But for now, my brain is fried.  Time to sleep.

Goodnight, Internet.  Or morning.  Whatever.  I'm crashing.  ❤

I'm starting the third paragraph of my five paragraph essay.

I'm starting the third paragraph of my five paragraph essay.  I've been at this all day and now I'm tired.  BOO.

History notes are organized and I'm feeling much better.

History notes are organized and I'm feeling much better.  My Literature paper and presentation are huge and daunting, but at least now my mind can focus.  Taking a break for food.  If I'm lucky I'll get sleepy and sleep.  If I end up having another not-sleeping night I'm going to put it to good use and do my Lit.

I hate to be this way but despite my hips aching I'm skipping my methotrexate this week.  I can't be too tired and foggy to function over the next few days.  It would be amazing if my body would get right and cooperate for a few days.  😕

Finished my Algebra homework and test review.

Finished my Algebra homework and test review.  I will go over the test review a few more times this weekend to make sure I've got it, but for now I'm working on my History notes.  After that I'm devoting all remaining brainpower to my Literature paper and presentation.  I feel like I write better when my brain is not cluttered, so I just have to get to a good place on everything else first.  Getting there!  Woo!  I feel encouraged!  🙂

I wish I felt as excited as my homework looks...

And with that - I'm off.


This has not been a great week.

This has not been a great week.

I've had what feels like literally a thousand small things to do / remember this week.  I normally try to keep life real simple, but schedule appointments here, turn in this paperwork there, make these phone calls, etc. was just unavoidable.  I feel like my energy has been nickel and dimed to death.

I have felt like crap for most of the week, too.  Weird headaches, migraine one day, nausea, head-spinning, sleep schedule all jacked... I don't know what's up, but it sucks.

Between the thousand errands and not feeling well I've barely worked all week.  Boo for not being able to make my mortgage payment by myself.  🙁

Also, finals are Monday and Tuesday.  I've been trying to do my Algebra homework and test review for 2 days, but my head has felt so wonky that I haven't gotten through either.  I also need to study for history, and write a paper AND make a presentation for my literature class.  Algebra and Literature finals are Monday; History is on Tuesday.

I know I have the weekend, but I really didn't want to have to cram  everything in at the last minute.  I definitely wanted to have more time to put into my paper.  I am sad and stressed and I feel sickly.  Even though I really need the money I don't think I'm going to work a whole day tomorrow.  I need to spend time on school stuff and then I can work as much as I need to after Tuesday.

If I'm not around, this is why.  I feel tired even though I napped, so I'm calling it a night.  See you on the other side.  ❤

It's not shaping up to be a great week so far.

It's not shaping up to be a great week so far.  I think yesterday wasn't horrible, but I woke up with a migraine and nauseated today.  I worked for 1 whole hour (maybe).  Excedrin Migraine and Zofran helped enough to get me out of the house, but I still do not feel good by any stretch.  I am guessing that either my kid got me sick or I picked up something from some nasty sick kid while in the waiting room with him on Monday.  Woo.  Here's hoping it doesn't last long.

Also kind of health-related:  No word from Medicaid.  I have no idea what's going on with insurance stuff.  😕

I have finals next week, so I am feeling kind of stressed.  I have a paper and presentation to do for English, and also I need to study for Algebra and History.  Then I will be officially done with my first fall.  As long as I don't majorly screw up anything I think I'll end with all A's again, so that's good, at least.

Anyway.  I'm off to try to get some things done.  I'm home - might as well make a dent in the studying.
I hope y'all are having a better week than I am!  ❤
