Not a horrible day, but it could definitely have been better.

Not a horrible day, but it could definitely have been better.

I went to the doctor this morning and gave them FOUR WHOLE VIALS of my blood.  However, that was not enough.  Nope.  Now they want my pee.  So I have to collect my pee this weekend and take it to them in a big, bright orange jug on Monday.  Just the thought of that feels really weird, but I'll do it.  I hope it helps them figure out what's up with me.  I REALLY appreciate that Dr. Rana is being so thorough.

Later in the day I had a quick lunch with Shaun.  We were kind of naughty.  We went to Sweet Cups and shared a piece of caramel cheesecake.  I know - not super healthy, but sometimes fun is more important.  So.  That's what we did, and I have no regrets.  😛

So, the kittens don't look any better, unfortunately.  I'm gonna give the antibiotic and eye stuff a couple of more days to work and if they aren't much improved by the weekend we'll be heading to the vet on Saturday.  I also ordered some L-Lysine treats from Amazon which should be here soon, so I'll be adding that into the mix.  On the bright side everyone else seems to be doing ok, thank goodness.  It's just these babies I've gotta concentrate on getting sorted out.

Of course, on a day when I look horrible I see people I know.  LOL  I saw Jennifer wayyy early this morning (sorry if I was bad at conversation - I'd literally just rolled out of bed and gone straight to the doctor).  Then Keith and Krystal later at Wal-Mart.  That's probably the most socialization I've had outside of the Internet in a long time, but it was pretty fun.  I should maybe try to make it a point of seeing and / or talking to people more often.  I'm just so pressed for time that it is really hard to do.  🙁

Anyway.  Shower time.  Then paper time.  I'm off!

I just got home from a very long day.

I just got home from a very long day.  I'm currently baking a Totino's pizza and trying to rally the energy to work on my paper that is due tomorrow.  It's not looking so good.  🙁

Kitten meds acquired with the help of the ever-amazing Shari.  Babies have been medicated and are resting now.  I'll make the nightly rounds for everyone else later, but I didn't want to make the babies wait.  I hope they will look a bit improved by morning.

Having more blood taken in the a.m.  Dr. Rana is working hard to get me back on track and I am so thankful for that.  I hope that everyone in Internet land is doing well.  ❤

A poem by Blu

Addsie looks better.

The kittens look worse.

I made a 92 on my history test.

I feel frazzled.

On my way to work. Yay money.

Waiting for class to start.

Waiting for class to start. Here a little early, but that's better than late.

I finished my presentation late last night. I missed work again today, but I felt like crap and slept a lot. I guess I needed it. I feel almost ok now, except that I'm worried I'm getting some sinus crud. That is the last thing I need, so maybe I just magically won't.

I haven't been as productive today as I needed to, but I feel like my body is fighting me at every turn. I don't really know what to do to fix that. 🙁 I have another doctor appointment on Wednesday for labs, so maybe that will turn up something.

Today I have been concentrating on History since that test is tomorrow. I do not feel even remotely ok about it yet, but maybe I will by the time I call it a night. I hope.

Also, I called Cable One and told them that I wanted back on the 300 GB plan. They told me that if I'm still not over 300 GB by 10/20, they would put me back. I won't be. We've barely used over 200 GB during the last few months, so I'm not concerned. I'm glad they will do that. It's one less thing I have to stress over and be worried about.

Anyway. The animals have been mostly pretty good for their meds, so that's been awesome. I've even been able to medicate Addsie all by myself! Thank goodness!

Well, I'm off. Wish me luck on this presentation. I want all the A's. 🙂

So... I slept super late.

So... I slept super late.  I've been dragging all day even though I have 1000 things to do.  I am guessing it's the methotrexate.  Or the fact that yet again I've been unable to relax for now the third weekend in a row due to the all of the things I have to do.  Blegh.

I'm only half-way through my presentation for Literature (which I have to present tomorrow), and I've got a headache and feel like I could fall asleep in my chair at any moment.  I'm gonna get back to it and hopefully knock the rest of it out.  Even if I finish that I still have the paper to write (due Wednesday) and studying to do for the History exam, which I think is on Tuesday.
This week isn't shaping up so great.  It feels like it takes a huge amount of effort to do any little thing.  🙁

Speaking of:  Jennifer, I haven't mailed your package yet.  If I can survive through Wednesday I think I can get it mailed by Thursday.  Is that ok?  I'm sorry that I'm crappy.  The struggle is real.  ❤

Holy wow. I just woke up.

Holy wow.  I just woke up.  A nap wasn't part of my plan, but I was so drunk tired after we ate that I could not function.  Y'all know what I'm talking about?  Being so tired that you feel drunk (or rather - what I assume drunk feels like)?  LOL

I hate feeling that way, but that is one way my body forces rest upon me.  "You're done.  You can't do anything.  You can't even talk.  That's right.  Just get in your bed and STFU."  LOL  My head still feels a little swimmy, but I just woke up and I don't feel like I can sleep more yet.  Maybe I just need to move around some.

I dreamed that I was at Six Flags with Donald Glover and I was about to have a tomato grilled cheese (which in my dream looked more like a mozzarella and pizza sauce pot pie, but whatever).  I am hungry for that now even though I'm like, 99% sure it is not a thing that exists.  Maybe one of those cheap $1 pizza's from Wal-Mart would hit the spot...

All of the kids are fed and cleaned.

All of the kids are fed and cleaned.  The house is finally clean enough that my brain feels like it will work.  I have showered.  And, (OF COURSE), now I'm exhausted.  🙁

I got rid of the old dishwasher today so now it's not in the middle of my kitchen floor.  I almost feel like my house is normal!  That's pretty exciting.  🙂

Getting some food with my guys, then gonna tackle the homework.  Wish me luck.  All I can think about at the moment is a nap.  😕
