everything went bananas.
instead of napping i decided i could do stuff. so i pulled on some go clothes and i goed........mercy.
i drove to wal-mart. no close parking spots, so i drove in circles for a while......wheeeeeeee. got lucky, parked. no electric carts today. so sad. i leaned on a cart & headed towards kitty litter central. it was so hard. i saw a herd of snails pass me twice on the way there. kind of discouraging, but i pressed on. it's very muggy here, the air feels like swamp stew. unpleasant. nobody around to help, walked until i found muscle assistance. yes, muscle assistance has a name, Daniel......nice able young man, he loaded up my cart with a normal amount of kitty food and 125 lbs of kitty litter. that should take the cats awhile to use up. it sounds like i blew the bank, but it costs $3.18 per 25 lbs so I try to buy more when I go. (get Sam to unload my trunk when he comes out.)
Daniel helped me through the line & loaded my trunk, still no available electric carts, so I left. Went to the drugstore. My rheumy's office has NOT CALLED in my meds since my visit last Friday, they are POKEY. SIGH. Sure could use a muscle relaxant & the celebrex. Gotta get back to the dentist and I can't sit still in the chair w/my back in constant spasm. Was advised to get something to take pre-appt. TRYING......gotta make the next appt for the crown bldg too.
Went to the BLUE SKY mani/pedi store. I wasn't feeling good at Wal-mart, noticed it was even worse as I exited the car. I thought, c'mon kid, warm water, a pedicure, it will feel good........go on in. Hard to move, harder than usual, my color looked funny......they have mirrors EVERYWHERE so it's hard not to see if you are splotchy and weird looking. The lady helping me and the other ladies were super solicitous, I thought oh crap, I must look and move worse than usual today. People act differently according to how it goes......I couldn't roll up my jeans, I couldn't get in the chair worth a hoot. I thought go home, but I was so tired and the chair was CLOSER. Chair won. I sat. I told her to pick a color for me. I was too tired. She picked a creamy lavendar, I like it! Here's the weird thing.........I moved to the drying table and two ladies were actively helping me. I appreciate that they want to help, but do not need them to move my legs/feet/hands. Their English is sketchy at best.....my left hand and my right foot are asleep and they need to leave me be, my lower back is locked up and now my smile is slipping into a bit of a growl. I hurt and if you leave me be I can do it in my own time. I think they are being extra protective because they are worried that I will pass out or fall. I feel for them, but they really can't touch me. (It's ok to offer an arm, but it is not ok to move body parts) So with all that said, I settle into the chair to dry my little toes. Ok.......ok.
Something is odd. I'm so tired & stiff, what am I sensing? It is hard for me to turn my neck/body right now. I look to my left, but can't tell. I look to my right, and see a staff lady standing directly behind me. RIGHT UP ON ME --- IN MY SPACE behind me, I ask another employee what is going on. She says she is there to lend support so you won't fall. I said she has to step away now, it is creeping me out.
She said what? I said it is creepy having someone literally leaning on the back of the chair into my back. She needs to stand away from me. I got out my money to pay and decided to just leave. Three of them helped me out of their store. They did not do this the last time I went there, granted I was moving much better.......feeling better, but it was WEIRD. Kind of creepy to me. What do ya'll make of this? I couldn't actually feel her breath on me, she was leaning into the back of the chair with her body to give it added support. I've never had anybody do this before. Am I being super weird to think this is super weird? Jeepers. (I was walking like a penguin today & it is an odd looking gait...... it is unusual when a person walks like that, I think they meant well, I would take a step or two and stop......move a bit and stop, but they should have SAID SOMETHING. Gotta decide if I will go back or not......made me feel weird, sigh. gotta get over the self-conscious thing........sigh, what to do.
So yeah, I went to the grocery store, me and my purple toes. We had a strange time. Could not figure out where things were, what to get, too tired, just sat there and wished with all my might that I was already home. Forgot to get pizza...................worst part? forgotttttted to get Sprite. I did get a couple of books that should take my mind off little thorns/aches/pains and get me onto better brighter cheerier thoughts, so that is the plan.....................to get inspired tonight and go to bed early.
I think it is extra quiet because of the storm system........thanks ya'll......................just call me red eye.......hope ya'll can rest, sorry yer feeling puny and a little blue...........c'mon over and we'll have something yummers..........chocolate or ice cream or whatever floats your treat time boat ok??????!!!!!!!!
early evening hugs.........oh hey, i went back to kohls because something i got was bent weird. they exchanged it no problemo. found two sweaters/2 shirts, used my $20 Kohls cash coupon and the total was under $18 for all 4 pieces. (think i'm about set for fall/winter.) i'll be in bed tomorrow, so consider yourself hugged in advance.........gonna put my spirit lifting books by the bed tonight.......tomorrow is gonna be a you know what kind of day.......washing my microbead pillows right now. gonna need 'em. i spilled foodage on 'em...........well done i know, save the applause.........gonna put 'em in the dryer and put my feet UP. hhhhhhuuuuuuuuuggggggggggssssssssssssssssssss.
just between me and you today kind of scared me a little. i couldn't get it together. my body and my brain seemed to be disconnected from each other........it was pretty weird. i think that i thought i was doing better than i actually am. should have waited a few more days to shop. glad i am home, gonna go jammy up...........xoxoxoxooxoxoxox thanks for letting me spill the beans with ya'll. i'm feeling so weird.............who needs an oreo cookie? who will go get them?
maybe we can have a virtual pizza share the love and let ruthie drink a sprite on sunday party........xo. vaguely thinking it is pain isn't it.........pain is messing me up. ohhhhhhhhh k, time to pray. nite.
