Feliz Cinco de Mayo!
I had my therapy session today for the first time in over a year. My therapist says that she's proud of me for not taking the easy way out and fighting. She says that people who are in my shoes would have been on disability much quicker than I, and then wouldn't have gotten the SSDI that I get. She said I earned that money, which is true. She is happy that I have goals set for therapy, and she likes the goals that I have. I got her caught up on the stuff that's been going on, and she was also happy that my mom and I are on better terms. It's hard, since my mom and I have a touch and go thing, but I'm working on it and that's the big thing. I'm going up there again at the end of the month to help out with Tracy's mom while he and my mom go to see Chele again.
I'm just feeling wiped out today. My throat is sore, my head is achy, and my body just aches. I hope I'm not coming down with the flu or something. I should take some Vitamin C or something to try and prevent this if anything is coming. I don't have a fever per se, it's 98.3 but I'm normally in the low 97's or high 96's. I will wait this out and see. I'm not very hungry now... I tried eating my 9:30 meal for my pills and just managed a couple spoonfuls of potatoes. I'm kinda sick to my stomach. It's weird, because at dinner I was pretty hungry, but then a couple hours later I'm feeling sick. I just saved the extra piece of chicken for tomorrow's lunch if I don't eat it tonight.
Food: well, I talked about it above, but I had oatmeal and a cup of coffee for breakfast, some pea pod chips, a Fiber One bar and a tea for lunch, some pasta for a snack, and regular dinner.
Sleep: I woke up okay (throat sore, but got out of bed without much fuss) at 8:45 and went to therapy. I didn't nap all day, so I got about 10 hours of sleep. I did have some trouble falling asleep last night, but not too much. I didn't have to take any pills or anything. Tomorrow they are coming to exterminate, so hopefully they won't wake me. Tomorrow I'm going to play by ear, since I'm not feeling well and want to get as much rest as I can. I don't know if I'm going to be up for the gym tomorrow since my foot is still hurting. I think I overdid it yesterday. Oh well, I should be good in a couple days.
