Today's prompt is "What is the most honest thing you've said today?" I haven't said anything today yet.
It is now 5:42 a.m. here. Yesterday was Sunday, and I did very little. Actually, Caleb and I went to Walmart to pick up a few groceries. Then I stopped to put gas in the Mazda. I came home, had breakfast, and took my medications, then went and took a shower. I fell asleep after my shower while I was drying out on my bed in front on my fan. I got in the shower at noon. I did not wake up until almost 5 pm. So yeah.
Yesterday was 8/8, and the opening to the Lion's Gate. Alot of high frequency downloads are supposed to be happening.
Today I have 2 appointments on the phone. One is with the MOVE! follow up class, and the other is with Dr. Karels, pharm D. I haven't been doing great taking my blood sugars this past week. I do not have alot of numbers to give her.
I feel like I did alot last week. Let's look at my calendar. Last Monday I had a call with Dr. Karels, and waited for the plumber from 1-5p.m. I missed my Wounded Warrior Project class for being too tired. I don't remember, but I'm pretty sure I spent the day house cleaning.
Tuesday, I missed my Virta diabetes online video call at 8:30 a.m. because I was too tired. I had physical therapy in the pool at 2:15 p.m.
Wednesday, I waited for the plumber from 8:00-12p.m. because he never made it on Monday. My phone interview with Breathe For Change Yoga was at 5p.m. I had to fast that night for the next morning's appointment.
Thursday, I had a galbladder ultrasound at the Wilmington VA at 8:30 a.m. I then had labs at :LabCorp. I had a video call appointment with Dr.Sheu for therapy at 1:30p.m., but I was late because I came home and crashed in my bed from being tired. I then had physical therapy in the pool at 3:45p.m. It was a long day.
Friday, I had the Virta diabetes program online video call at 3:40 p.m.
Saturday I didn't do much and Sunday I did even less. Saturday, Caleb and I went to Jersey Mike's for lunch. Caleb got some of end of year testing done that afternoon, but it was a bitch because he has the need to argue every step we take.
Wednesday, the plumber did not fix the toilets nor the sink drain. He used his tools to try to move whatever was the blockage in the hallway toilet, but said it felt like nothing was there. He did not even attempt to unclog the sink drain because he thought the main line needed to be cleared first. So here we are back at square one, with neither toilet being fixed nor the sink.
I spent alot of time cleaning the house during the week. At some point, I began the laundry and cleaned the kitchen, as well as cleaned the hallway bathroom. It's all a blur right now.
Also, on some day, I completed the paperwork to pursue child support through the department of social services. That took alot of my time. I made sure to mail it and email it. That brought up more drama. We have to find Nigel and he has to take a paternity test first, because I was still legally married when Caleb was born. I found him on Facebook but it looks like he has not been on Facebook since 2019. I hope they have other means to find him.
This week will be busy too. I enrolled in the Breathe For Change 200-hour Wellness, SEL, and Yoga Teacher training. It is expensive, but I am sure it will be worth it. I had to finance the tuition. It was a big decision that I took a few days to decide. In the end, I just could not let the time pass without me being in that class.
Caleb was awake most of the night. I kept asking him to take his night time medications and he kept telling me he already did. Clearly he was lying to me. He is asleep now, and probably will be cranky today. He has to finish his testing today. He is about halfway done. I need to return the testing materials as soon as possible because I am already late in returning them. I am going to get charged late fees. Sucks. Caleb can be hard to work with.
I am waiting for Virta to get my lab results and make a decision as to whether I am right for their diabetes reversal program.
I want to read my books. I want to teach Caleb from his old and new school books I bought him. We really can't start the new year without closing out the old year.
Today is Monday August 9, 2021. It is now 6:24 a.m. here. The light is coming through the window, and it is no longer dark outside. It will be time to wake Caleb up soon. He needs to complete his testing.
I have to call the plumber's office and tell them he did not clear the sink, and I am not going to pay another fee for him to come back out to do it. I also need to go to my eye doctor's office and figure out why they are not getting paid for my last visit through Community Care. I need to contact my mortgage company and find out if they have received my property tax bills. I have to call the endocrinology doctor's office and schedule an appointment. I need to reschedule 2 physical therapy appointments that I missed , and one that I am going to miss in the future. I need to look at the budget and determine when I can schedule the 75,000 mile tune up for the Mazda (it's already at 94,000 miles, so yeah). I need to clear my schedule of as much as I can to make time for my class and Caleb's studies before the school year gets started.
I wish there was some way I could make extra money without putting myself out. Now that we do not qualify for food stamps, well, that is more than $400 a month we don't have for groceries. I am grateful to have the $250/month coming in until December. What the Hell will I do after that? I don't know. I need the child support to come in.
I have to get the Volvo inspected so I can pay the taxes and registration renewal , but my dad has the Volvo. I am running out of time.
I just made a list of the things I am going to try to accomplish today. I have to go to the town office and update Bella's tag as well as request a new trash collection bin. I have to send Serena, the social worker, the printouts of Nigel's Facebook page. I have to call her for her address first. It's already a busy day and the sirens just passed by because there is an emergency somewhere. It is now 7:02 a.m.
It is now 8:33 a.m. and Caleb just got back from his walk with Bella. The day is ready to begin.
