The towels cost me the same amount with the $10 off coupon yesterday as they did last week when they were on sale. I'm happy with my decision to buy the pillows at Macy's because I didn't like what Kohl's had to offer, and they weren't exactly giving anything (good) away.

That should be the end of the linen procurement, but (of course) I'm a little focused on the shower curtain now. I'm going to try my best not to look at it or think about it.

I found the perfect pair of jeans, and they were on sale. But my 20% off coupon isn't good until Wednesday. I haven't decided if I will go back to buy them there, charge them to my Amazon account, or buy them at all. I feel guilty spending anymore money... on anything that isn't linen-related.

It was absolutely pouring out yesterday, so there was no way I was doing the grocery shopping. I had to pick up a prescription at CVS, so I bought the toilet paper and milk we needed there. It's going to rain today too, but it will be light/drizzle, so not a big deal...

But I really hate food shopping.

I am glad that he listened to you. and glad that you could vent.
Very glad that you felt better, venting can be very cathartic. Crying would have even been better. If that doesn't sound too weird...sorry.

I had to lay down around 9am yesterday, and I slept until around 1pm. I was barely awake until 2 until I had to lay down again until about 5pm, and went to bed at 10. I can't really say anything was wrong, aside from generally feeling unwell.

I may have a sinus infection. I was dizzy this morning and my temp was 99.7, which I don't consider to be a fever. I really don't feel like dealing with the doctor. I feel like putting it off.

So I didn't go to the grocery store again yesterday, but I had pasta, chicken broth, and garlic and I was able to throw dinner together. I won't be that lucky tonight, so if I start feeling really shitty again, I'm just going to have to push through it.

I think it's a good idea if I get ready and get going early.

I am sorry that you are not feeling well. Listen to your body and rest when you need it.
maybe ask corey to get some things from the store?

I didn't spend all day in bed, but I can tell I definitely have a sinus infection. So, I'll call today and try to get an appointment with my PCP or the NP.

For some reason the urologist's office called yesterday to confirm my appointment for April 14th. I think that's odd. Obviously I have to call them back.

I finally made it to the grocery store and spent $130 because I put the shopping off for so long that the cupboards were bare. Usually the bill is in the $80-90 range because we don't order out often.

I went to Kohl's to try on the "perfect jeans" to make sure 10 was the right size. It was, and it was the only size 10, but they were too short (maybe they were a 10S). The 8M I tried on were long enough though. I hope the 10M I ordered off Amazon will be long enough. Otherwise, I will spend a good deal of time waiting for the exchange process before I get the right size.

I'll play the lottery as usual today and I have to drive to NH to buy cigarettes again. I thought about doing laundry this morning, but decided against it because I can do it tomorrow and I'm already doing enough today.

I didn't call the doctor's office yesterday for an appointment. I hate going, and I'm resisting. If I felt sick enough I would go though, so I guess I'm not.

When I decided not to laundry yesterday I forgot I have an appointment with my pdoc this morning, so I screwed myself over and have to do it before I go. I have enough time, but I'm not happy about it.
I still have a set of sheets that needs to be washed and will be getting a new set from Amazon soon that will need to be washed too, and my husband's work jacket didn't fit (again) this time. So I really couldn't delay putting the 2 full loads I had in, or I would be really behind.

This is my last appointment with my pdoc before she goes on maternity leave. She will have other pdocs covering on a rotating basis, but I'm such a mess not having her accessible is a scary proposition. There is one pdoc that we talked about using who is "not afraid to use meds," so would probably be best, whether she's on the rotation or not.

Kay,

'Sending hopes that the replacement pdoc works well for you.

I know it was stressful for me when the pdoc/doc/tdoc routine is modified.


How long is the maternity leave?

My pdoc won't be back until July!
She wasn't thrilled about the OCD linen quest, but it seems to be over since I bought the pillows. She's very concerned about the fatigue, cognitive issues, and urinary retention, and wants me to make an appointment with my neurologist to discuss recent changes.

Friday was a ****ty day. I woke up to cat puke all over the floor and got stuck taking another cold shower. Then it turned out that only one dryer was working, but I didn't realize it until I went to transfer the clothes from the washers to the dryers. That added an extra hour to the process and I was 5 minutes late to my appointment. Later, I woke up from my nap because I felt something wet on my legs. When I got out of bed to check it out, I saw that Buddy puked all over me while I was sleeping and it soaked all the way through the quilt onto the bottom sheet (thank God not to the mattress pad). I ended up having to wash the sheets because I didn't have a clean set (my 3rd load of laundry of the day). I cleaned the puke up off the quilt the best I could, but I'll have to haul it to the laundromat. In the meantime, I put an old comforter on the bed. Later, one of the cats puked again, this time on the bed room floor. I felt like I was shoveling **** against the tide all day and I'm sure I'm leaving some little annoyances out.

It's not normal for cats to throw up this often. I know Rocky throws up sometimes because he eats too fast tho. I'm changing their food to something higher quality and for sensitive systems, but will do it slowly. I'm not spending a fortune tho.

I'm still having the same issues with fatigue and problems with my neck and shoulder, so that bad day didn't help. According to my husband I'm still in a lousy mood, but I can't help it, I just feel like ****.
