5 Year Journal day 262

      Today's prompt is "A decision you made today ______." I decided to go right to bed after getting home from Caleb's therapy appointment.

     It is now 11:47 p.m. on Wednesday. I am awake because I got too warm, and needed to cool off.  

      Caleb woke me up before I was ready to get up this morning because he wanted me to give him screen time on his phone. Ugh. I got out of bed and after some time, began my morning routine. It wasn't long before it was time to get ready for my psychiatrist appointment online. The appointment went well, and then I had to clean the kitchen up a bit and make dinner for myself. I planned to make spaghetti stew in the crockpot. I also went ahead and made hard boiled eggs in the pot that I could not get the burned on food off of completely from the "non stick" surface. 

     Caleb made himself hot dogs for lunch and later on for dinner as well. Caleb had an appointment with his therapist at 2:30, so I hurried to get all the ingredients cleaned and cut up for the crock pot before we left. I had only a few minutes to sit down before we had to leave for Caleb's appointment. 

     I was so tired driving to Caleb's appointment that I wanted to pull over and take a nap. My body was heavy and I was sleepy. I struggled to make it back home, and when I did, I went straight to my bed to take a nap. 

     Even though I was tired, I could not sleep well. I laid down for about 2 hours and got back up to check on the food in the crockpot. I had to add the zucchini and squash at the last minute, so I would not over-cook them. 

     I went ahead and prepared my medications to take them after I ate dinner. Dinner was tasty.

     After I took my medications, I went back to bed in the hopes of falling fast asleep. I did not fall fast asleep though. 

     I do not know what is causing all this sweating on my body, but it is not hot in here. It's not comfortable at all. I just want to lay in front of the air conditioner to dry out. 

     Tomorrow we do not have any appointments, so I will be able to start the laundry and keep it going throughout the day. I need to wash my hoodie because I accidentally spilled food juices on it and it looks horrible. 

     I already took my iron pill and orange juice earlier. I am feeling more like going back to sleep now that I have been in front of the window unit air conditioner for a while. I need to refill my water before I go back to bed.
