All Messed Up

My whole schedule is messed up with this whole car thing. I'm not taking my pills at the right times, I'm waking up and going to sleep late, eating bad food... well, the sleeping and the bad food is my fault. The pills thing just has to be adjusted since we have an obligation at the time when I take my pills, so just for the next couple days it's going to be off. Tomorrow we are going to be running around doing errands for the last days that we have the car. We have to give it back on Wednesday. I don't know what I'm going to do about the volunteering thing since until then I'm going to be running around every morning trying to get things done, but I will get things figured out eventually. I am just tired and want to go to sleep and I'm sure I will soon. I got enough sleep last night (about 11 hours) but I didn't take a nap today since I'm supposed to be going to sleep early tonight so I'm doing the plan. 
Tomorrow Geo has to get his cholesterol done in the morning, then we have to go to the store and get food, and then stop by the UPS store and mail off a package. Sometime in there we have to go let the dogs out and walk them. This all starts around 9 in the morning, so I have to be up early :( I don't like waking up early. 
My mood has been okay today. I've been pretty stable, not paranoid or anything and I went for my 40 minute walk. I was feeling pretty good on my walk. I didn't know if I was going to have time to do it tomorrow since everything is crazy with the car, but I'm just glad that we have it and can do stuff that needs to be done. I know I complain about the responsibilities that come along with it, but it's nice to have a set of wheels. I felt good for the most part, even though I gained weight. I knew I was going to gain weight, and it was only a pound and a half. I just have to be better about going out to eat when we have the car for the next couple of days. I have to look at where we are going to go beforehand and then choose the best thing for me to eat. That's what I did with Red Lobster and it wasn't a disaster, so I just have to have the same game plan again. 
Stress wasn't too bad today... Just the stuff with the pills and the dogs and the car... lol it sounds like a lot, but it's not. Food was good today... I was low on calories again. It's just hard for me to eat since that binge the other day at the Mexican food place. I mean, it's really hard for me to eat. I get hungry, but just getting the food in me and not feeling like crap is hard. I still have food to eat from tonight that I know for a fact I'm not going to eat. I just can't. I might be low on calories, but that's just the way it's going to have to be. I had some salad, some spaghetti and regular dinner (chicken, potatoes and corn). I think that's going to do it for tonight, I've got some more stuff I have to do on the computer before I get to sleep, which I want to do soon!

sounds like you had a pretty regular day for a change, the eating and sleep are messed up for the time, but that will get back to normal soon enough, I wouldn\'t worry to much about that and as far as the meds go, well they will get back to normal to, for the time just take them as close to your regular time as you can and don\'t worry to much about how it will affect you, you can be off by an hour or two with out any ill affect.
As for the weight, don\'t forget you are weighing while your TOM, that is going to cause some water weight gain too, so don\'t be so hard on yourself with the weight that you gained, it is only temporary and you will lose it again soon. Have a great day.

i understand the its good and bad at the same time about the car, i have those feelings about other things. at least you can get caught up with all the eraands. hey, dont be hard on yourself for the weight gain, you will get back on the right track, this is just a temporary issue. i dont understand about the pills though, why are you off on taking them?
