Yesterday I struggled all day. I was fatigued to the core and sleepy all day. I managed to pull myself together to get dishwasher loaded and running twice, clear the kitchen island of most of the stuff cluttering it, and start the laundry in the washing machine. I consider my efforts successful.
I decided to light some candles, burn some incense sticks and sage for the fallen today with Caleb.'
I also convinced him that if he did a good job sweeping the kitchen floor and picking up the stuff there, I would gladly pay him by taking him to Dairy Queen. It was worth the $5.22 I spent on a medium Oreo cookie blizzard! He wanted me to get some ice cream too, but they don't offer sugar free options there.
On Sunday I decided to wear one of my new dresses that I bought with the expectation of wearing somewhere, like church. It has been in hanging in my closet for months, along with other clothes I bought to wear out, with the tags still on. I wanted to take some pictures in a pretty dress outside, with my hair and makeup done. I actually wanted to go to the beach to have Caleb take pictures of me for Mother's Day, but we never made it to the beach. This weekend was not the weekend to go to the beach here. It was crowded on the island as tourist season has officially just started. I tried on my dress shoes that have been waiting to be worn too. They are strappy high heels, which I learned I will never be able to wear out because they offer no support whatsoever. I just thought they would look pretty with the dresses, and I got them, along with the dresses at a deep discount.
I just had to google a question about poop. "Is poop supposed to float?" The answer is "Healthy poop should sink in the toilet." I was watching "House" before I went to bed, and it made me wonder, because that was part of the diagnostics they were doing.
I miss Nichole, my sister-in-law. She is staying with her family for the summer with the kids. I don't get to talk to her as much as I did when she was at home. I'm trying to build relationships with other people so I don't feel so bored during the day. I need people to entertain me every couple of hours apparently. Nichole was good with that because she has 4 kids who provide plenty of entertainment.
I ma behind on 2 of my classes and need to catch up. I really got knocked down last week. I was just so tired that I couldn't do anything but sleep. I had a few good days and then I crashed. It's like that frequently with fibromyalgia. I just have to do the best I can each day depending on my symptoms at the time. It makes it hard to make and keep plans.
I don't know who my readers are, but thank you for reading.
