I've had a grumpy day today, mostly due to not taking my antidepressants, but partly, I think because I'm really tired (possibly from spending that hour outside in the cold yesterday) and because I need to drink more (and had a headache most of the day). I'm also having a bit of a crisis over what clothes I should wear - my usual ones are obviously ( Read more... )

I was trying to teach the cats to use the new cat door - and I locked myself out. I had to go over to my over the road neighbour who I barely know (but at least I've talked to her) and use her phone to call a lock smith. The locksmith came, and picking locks? Not as glamorous as on TV. Nor as easy. He couldn't get the lock to either front door or ( Read more... )

Yesterday my friends and I were talking about periods, because Sheryl had put on fluid weight and was trying not to freak out about an extra kilo. At which point I said "Oh, you know - I haven't had my period this month. I got it in hospital but haven't seen it since." Then I laughed and turned to Linda and said "I've just jinxed myself haven't I? ( Read more... )

My skin is so dry (all over my body, not just in parts) that I'm like a wrinkly old elephant. This is because I just can't get in enough fluids to keep myself properly hydrated - I sip constantly from morning till night, but it's still not enough. Of course, it's not helped by the fact that losing weight is already giving me loose skin. It makes a ( Read more... )

I wish my mouth would stop tasting like ass all the time.

Note to self: Stop gulping water/liquid dammit! It doesn't work that way anymore ( Read more... )

OMG writing is like pulling teeth today ::sighs:: Every sentence is a struggle and I've rewritten the same three hundred words about three times! BLERGH ( Read more... )

Oh man, the weather outside is ferocious! It's pounding down with hail and rain and it's COLD!! And it's coming down the chimney (but not into the fire itself . . . which wouldn't matter cos I don't have the fire going). But muawhahahaha, I am safe and snug and warm (because the gas heater IS going) inside my little house. It's just that in this ( Read more... )

I am so fricking tired right now. Every day I'm getting tireder and tireder, not more energetic like I should. Each day I fight to get food in, my pills in, and most importantly of all, enough fluids in. The fluids are *hard* - I spend all day sipping as much as I can, just start feeling hydrated around bed time, then go to bed and re-dehydrate ( Read more... )

Yay! Had a shower with my dressing off. Things feel clean for the first time in an age. Still have an oozy little hole in my wound that bubbles icky stuff when I squeeze it, but other than that, and the incessant itching (a good sign I know) everything is good with my wound. Got a lecture on not lifting stuff from the district nurse when she came ( Read more... )
