I was hoping I just had a UTI that was dragging me down, but I dip my own urine because of the retention, and the last time it was negative for nitrites, which usually means it's negative. I had my post-op with my GYN yesterday (everything's fine and I don't have to go back for a year) and she cathed me and sent off a urine sample anyway. It will probably be negative.

Every time I have setbacks like this I want to blame it on something medical, but all the testing comes back normal, and my PCP tells me it's just my MS getting worse (unless there's a new med in play, which there isn't at this time). So I have to find ways to adapt and get used to the changes. I really ****ing hope that I'm just having a hard time recovering from the surgery. My GYN thinks it's a distinct possibility, so I'm a little more encouraged that this may be just temporary.

I'm on a linen-buying bender… sheets, towels, bath mats lol.
Fortunately my husband is happy to have the new stuff, but he may not be too happy when I buy another set of bath mats because I'm not happy with the quality of the first set I bought though. Oh well, TS.

I think I will shower early and pay a visit to that store. Then I will stay put. The laundry can wait until tomorrow.

Unfortunately I can't return the old mats. I took the tags off and put them down in the BR for a couple of days. One of the reasons they bothered me is because they were dark navy… Dottie really likes to lay on the one that goes around the toilet, and it quickly got covered with her mostly white hair.

I had to go to two stores, but I got what I wanted (I will save the old mats tho). I'm very pleased with the towels I bought, and a set of sheets from Amazon should arrive today. The only thing that needs replacing now is the outer shower curtain, but I won't buy a new one until we move. My spending spree is over.

Going to two department stores in one day is too much for me… too much walking. I slept like a rock when I got home… just over 4 hours, and I got my 8 hours in last night as well.

I had thought that after my husband broke down my old dresser he had thrown all the pieces in the dumpster, but he left some of them in the trunk of the car. He has had WEEKS to throw them out. I got ****ing fed up with it, and drove over to the dumpster to get rid of the **** myself yesterday (not very heavy at all). I'm sick of all the pieces of furniture in the spare bedroom too, so I told him that I'd be throwing out a couch pillow or cushion every time I leave the apartment now. I hope that guilt will light a fire under his ***, and he will start getting rid of some things on his own. Not everything needs to be thrown out at once. It's better to do things slowly than to just let it sit there and do nothing about it.

I wanted to shower early yesterday so I could get an early start, but we had no water until 11am. I was happy to get into the laundry room first this morning, but was very disappointed to find that 1/2 washers were broken so my laundry is going to continue to build up. I hate this ****ing place!!!
