Thought of the Day #3

The emotion of today is less grumpy than yesterday.

I wish I felt up to working on my crochet today. But I’m exhausted and headachy. Some days are like this. I have to force myself to move. I made myself get up and run errands with dad and got hibachi food as a reward. But it was an effort. I just have no energy. My goal for the rest of the day is to sit on the couch and play Neverwinter. Bleh

Thought of the day – Chinese food has too much salt. But I’m going to pretend that it doesn’t

Medication Mishaps

Get this shirt HERE!

Story of my life. I spent yesterday having missed my meds the night before. Mind you, I didn’t mean to miss them. I ended up at a friend’s too late, so I crashed in their spare room. But, because the bed was king size, different, and had few pillows, I got zero sleep. I also didn’t have my favorite trusty owl, and it didn’t smell like me. All of those combined means that I will never, ever, be able to get to sleep.

Yesterday, I coped with the migraine that not sleeping gives me, and parents who were snapping and yelling at each other all day. It’s not a good idea to startle the grumpy wolf under the blanket. That’s how people lose limbs.

All I wanted was to be left alone, so I could crawl under a blanket and disappear. However, I also didn’t want to be alone. Thus, the contradictory nature of, well, my nature. I hate days that I miss my meds. I’m angry, mouthy, annoyed and just plain not pleasant to be around. From now on, I’m going to fill an old med bottle with at least a round of one night’s worth of meds. Maybe that will help.

Thought for the Day #2

The emotion of the day is nerve-wracked. I hate last minute plans. They are murder on my anxiety. To keep from going crazy I try and make plans 3-4 days in advance. At least 24 hours.Now I’m going to spend all day on edge, not knowing if it’s ok for me to sit here and chill out in my pjs or if I should go get dressed and get a shower.

To ease my brain, I’m just going to act like I had never thought there were going to be plans in the first place. In other words, play some Neverwinter and plan some of my crafty things.

I would love to make one of these. But it’s in my long term plans.

What’s this? Is that Tom Baker’s scarf from Dr Who? Why yes! Yes it is! And that is on my table for my next really large fiber project. I just started to learn to knit, and I’ve been crocheting for a little over a year. I think a project so big, while it would take me forever, it would get me used to changing colors and learning the basic knit stitch. Aside from that, I would have an awesome point on my geek card.

Thought of the day – Aura migraines suck.
