I woke up this morning with a lot of anxiety, so I took a whole Klonopin for the first time (at once) since coming home from the hospital. It helped. I was afraid it would knock me on my a-, but it didn't.

Yesterday was my only appointment-free day, so I figured I would take it easy, and I did. I did a few things around the house, and went out to CVS and to play the lottery. And that's pretty much it...
My OCD has not been bothering me much since the first few days I was home. My apartment isn't spotless, but it's clean and things are in order. I seem to be satisfied with that right now.
But I will be home for most of the day, and am thinking of doing a little cleaning. I have to find some way to entertain myself anyway.

I have an appointment to get my Tysabri (MS med) infusion at 2pm today. I f'ing HATE the timing, but I had to take what I could get since having to cancel my last appointment because I was in the hospital. I will be ready for a nap by the time I get there, and will hit heavy traffic on my way home. I'm hoping I can catch some Z's while I'm there, but sometimes it's very loud.

We are going to have to change our cellphone carrier (AT&T). We still owe a lot on our phones, but Corey just wants to pay them off. We barely get service here, and we keep getting kicked off the network here and while out and about. We have to shut our phones off and turn them back on to get service again. Then we see our voicemails and missed texts. We both have iPone X's, but his has more memory than mine, so they are different, so the phones can't be the problem. I have called AT&T twice, and whatever they've done hasn't helped. I don't like the idea of spending the money, but I don't like paying for cellphone service I can't use either. So, I guess we'll be going to a Verizon store this weekend. Corey gets good service here on his work phone, which is through them. I will keep my phone. If he just has to have a new phone, then whatever... he does what he wants.
Since we're already going out, I'll make him take me out to lunch, too

I have a very early appointment tomorrow morning, so I probably won't be online. I may be very tired afterwards and have to go back to sleep, but I will try to check in quickly later in the day if I can.

I can't do another late Tysabri appointment like that again. I was so tired I really shouldn't have driven home. I didn't get home until almost 5. That's WAY too late in the day for me...

I lost cellphone service AGAIN while I was using my phone at the hospital yesterday. I was so f'ing fed up and PO'ed that I pretty much went online and paid off our phones as soon as I got home. Then it happened to me again this morning. I can't wait to go to the Verizon store tomorrow to switch carriers. I like to be able to use services I'm paying (A LOT of $$$) for

I made it to my (7:30am) appointment this morning by the skin of my teeth. Traffic was f'ing crazy. I'm glad I brought a coffee from home. I never would have made it had I stopped at Dunkin Donuts. It took me almost 15 minutes longer than usual to get there in the morning.

It's cold and raining buckets out, but I ran several errands on my way home so I wouldn't have to go out later. I'm really, really tired, and think that I will take an early nap.

My early nap turned out to be not so early.

I got caught up worrying how Corey was going to get his music onto his new phone because of problems with his archaic computer. He hasn't synched his phone and computer together or backed up his phone to it in a year, and he can't do it with my computer without losing the music he hasn't purchased through iTunes (I called Apple). The last time he tried to use his computer it had crashed, but I ended up getting it up and running again after charging and restarting it, so later in the evening he was able to back his phone up to iTunes. So, the problem should be solved.

I just couldn't rest until I resolved the problem in my mind no matter how exhausted I was. So, yeah, I'm still manic. I ended up smoking MJ and taking a 2 hour upright couch nap later tho. I felt much better afterwards because the sleep was much needed.

The Mirilax is definitely something I need to take everyday. The fiber is another story. I didn't take much, but overdid it anyway, and I'm having lots of mid-to-lower right abdominal pain. It's starting to subside a little, so I hope that means that things are moving along, but it's kinda scary after what I've just been through. I don't want another bowel obstruction. Anyway, no more fiberCon for now.

Upon discharge from the hospital, I was told that someone from the surgical team would be calling me in two weeks to check in. So, that should be around Monday. I will ask them what I should do now, what I should be doing regularly, and who I should be talking to/seeing about these issues on an outpatient basis.

We're supposed to take care of the cellphone situation and go out to lunch this afternoon. Corey's still sleeping right now tho. I've been up since 6:30.

I got myself into a heap of trouble yesterday...

We share a patio with our next door neighbor, who gave permission to a boy, who lives on the 3rd floor, to leave his bike downstairs next to the fire stairs, which is on his side of the patio. The problem is that he and his friend never leave their bikes there, but leave them in front of his slider, ours, or anywhere in between instead. Sometimes they also ride up on our patio right in front of us while we're sitting outside... we love that

When the good weather first arrived, I called the office, then Corey went down there, about one of the bikes after it was left on OUR side of the patio for 6 days without moving. We told the office what the boy's father looked like, and where we thought they lived. They told Corey they would send an email out, but nothing happened. Corey ended up moving the bike inside by the front entrance. Later, he ran into the father, spoke to him about the bike, and found out about the arrangement with our neighbor.

I have spoken to both boys very nicely separately, and together, several times. I spoke to the boy's friend Friday night (in front of his sister) after he left his bike propped up on my patio chair....

Last evening, while our blinds were drawn but open, we caught the boy upstairs trying to leave his bike in front of our slider, and his friend trying to leave his in the same place as the night before- against my patio chair. So, I went out to talk to them again. Unfortunately, I was PO'ed and HIGH at the time, and let "CUT THE S-" slip out at the end... UGH

So, the very angry mother from upstairs came down pounding on my sliding glass door to f'ing scream at me for swearing at her child, but she was a real piece of work, who refused to believe that her son had EVER left his bike on our side of the patio LOL... it's a daily occurrence. Ordinarily, I would have immediately apologized because I was in the wrong for swearing at children (and should not have been even talking to them while high), but you get what you give. So I yelled right back at her, and told her I'd be willing to go upstairs and throw all my s- all over her deck.
I did eventually apologize for swearing at the kids, and promised not to do so in the future, but I refused to back down about the bicycle situation. I said it was our own personal rented space, I would NOT be dealing with it all summer, and would call the leasing office and make it so that the boys would lose their privileges to park their bikes downstairs AT ALL (their not supposed to do so even on their own decks/patios) if it continued.

I have not heard from the other mother (YET). The father of the boy upstairs said he had spoken to her. Maybe she had already heard from her daughter that I had spoken to her son the night before, or maybe she knows that if another adult tells her kid to "cut the s-" there's a good reason for it (that's what I would suspect). IDK. But if she comes banging on my door, I'll handle it differently this time. I'll open with that apology. And I never even asked the other mother what the kids told her I said. Maybe they told her something different/worse. She just asked if I swore at her son, and I said yes.

I hope that the father speaks to our neighbor, the one he has the agreement with. He is also having problems with the kid leaving his bike where he is not supposed to. When I saw him the other day, he said he had spoken to him twice recently, and he knows I have spoken to the kids, too.

Later, we heard the father upstairs talking to the boys. Corey said he heard him saying I was right, it is our personal space, but I went about things the wrong way. And he went on to give them directions about not riding their bikes on, or leaving their bikes on, our side of the patio. So, hopefully something good will come out of my mistake, and we won't have to deal with this s- anymore.

Corey is understandably very upset because we moved to avoid problems with our old neighbors, and I just caused major problems for us. I hope this blows over without any future incidents. I've never seen the mother before last night, and Corey thinks she doesn't go out much, if at all. So, it's not likely I will run into her often. We will run into the father for sure because he's around enough, but he seems like a reasonable guy. Very odd tho, and Corey thinks he's on drugs. I'm sure we'll see the kids, but I'm just going to ignore them, and let them go about their business. I don't want to intimidate them or anything. If they start parking their bikes where they shouldn't again, I'll call the office... every single time. And I will take pictures.

Maybe it's because of how things were when I was growing up, but I don't really think what I said was THAT bad, but I know I still should NOT have said it. It was not my proudest moment. I really do feel worse for causing grief for Corey than saying "S-" in front of two 9 year olds who I am sure have heard a lot worse tho.

I'll probably hear from the office, and that's okay. I'll tell them exactly what happened, and exactly what I said. And I'll tell them that in the future, they can expect their phone to ring off the hook if the kids don't learn anything from what happened last night.

I should have been calling the office about this before it got to this point.
