Journal Entry for April 15, 2009 Mood
Wednesday, April 15, 2009
I'm doing much better then last night. I did sleep about half my morning away...well, most of the morning up into the noon hour away. I was up here and there, but not for long. I was so wiped out! Then I went to see a friend for a little bit to kinda unwind. I was upset from a nightmare I'd woke up from. I rarely have nightmares, so they stir me up pretty badly when I do get them. Then I came home and chatted with another good friend online, and did my dishes. Now I'm folding laundry (cleaned out my drawers so I can fit what clothes I do have in there!). I'm waiting for Carl to get home from work so I can make supper. I have fasting labs tomorrow, but she said I can drink all the water because of the type of labs I'm having. At least I can have water. I don't really like straight water, but I'll live. I'll bring string cheese with me to eat afterward and my meds along so I get those taken afterwards. I'm nervous for my assessement tomorrow, but I'm also eager to see what becomes of it and how the course of treatment will go. I miss my best friend's phone call earlier. :( I'm really hoping she calls back soon! I love hearing from her and its been a while since we've been able to catch up on the phone. We do e-mail though, when we can't talk much on the phone, so I'm glad for that. Umm...not much else. Minor lower right backache from bending and picking up laundry off the floor to take care of it. I'll live. Trying to get as much good tasting fluid in before bed tonight. Hopefully I'll sleep all night so I don't have the urge to eat! Hopefully people are online to chat with tomorrow morning until I have to leave! I want to be as distracted as I can be so I am not as prone to get urges to eat...though I likely will get them anyhow, at least a distraction might help some. Anyhow, I'ma get scooting and keep on working around here. Hope everyone is having a good day!
