for the last week or so i have been draggin major ass.... D-R-A-G my ass out of bed every day to either drive to the VA for appts, go buy groceries or go w/ my bf to HIS appts.
and to make matters worse, i decided to help out this veteran who became temporarily homeless (due to a disability pay screw up). being that we have a spare bedroom, i let her stay with us. she said at 1st that she was gonna have her pay fixed in 3 days and that's all she would need. then it got delayed again and then again. i told her on the 5th day that she had to go bcuz i could no longer afford to feed an extra mouth for a whole nother week. family comes 1st and with what small groceries i had left, it was only enough for us.
she wanted me to take her everywhere (drive her) and i couldn't hack it anymore either.
yesterday i took her back to the homeless shelter and then picked up my bro from the hospital. by the time i got home, i slept the day away till dark. i mean i was passed the hell out! and then went back to bed eventually at night i think around 11 or so. this morning i got up at 9 and i'm still freakin pooped. i'm so freakin TIRED.....
and guess what! my buddy calls and wants me to come over with the truck, cuz his gf is moving to down town. he wants ME to drive all their stuff to down town! i was like, "can't YOU just come over and BORROW the truck????" he said NO cuz the truck is too nice and he'd be more comfortable if I drove it.
oh man.... i REALLY wanted to relax today... go to the beach... come home and sleep some more. i'm so tired.... but the kind of person i am, it's hard to say NO to helping people. what should i do? i tried askin my bro if he can drive but his doc told him to stay home. i'm gonna try askin my bf if he'll do it for me. but i'm pretty sure he'll so NO (the grouch he's been lately). so what do y'all think??
btw, up date on the cymbalta: my doc mailed me the lower dosage so i can wean off it correctly.
