Scary Movie
Today Geo and I watched an old horror movie, V/H/S and I got so scared. It had the two things that scare me most- a woman with no eyes and hands coming out of walls and floors. I actually screamed at some points and had to cover my eyes at others. Geo loved every minute of it, holding and squeezing my hand when I was scared. He was scared by it, too. There is a sequel to it, but I need a couple days of fluffy bunnies and rainbows before I'm ready for it.
I went for a walk today and despite having a bit of trouble with my asthma I walked/jogged an 18 minute mile. I'm working my way up... one or two days a week go for distance and the other days for speed. I'm doing good... I have now done 3 walks in a row under 20 minutes a mile. Tomorrow I should try for 2 miles again. The clinic is closed for Columbus Day and so I can't get my prescription filled until Tuesday. I should be good until then. My stomach has calmed down a bit with all the Zantac I've been taking. I'm also starting my Seroquel and except for last night I didn't have trouble sleeping. I've been sleeping for about 13 hours a night. I need to get lower than that. I can't afford to get used to 13 hours of sleep. I used to be able to get 10 hours of sleep and be okay, and now it's 12-13 hours. I need to get it back down if I want to have any chance for working part time. I need to talk to the Social Security office when the government gets back to normal. I would like to have a part time job after Thanksgiving. I don't know what I could do, but it's their job to help me.

good attitude with the \"I don\'t know what I could do, but it\'s their job to help me.\" with an attitude like that i bet they will find you something to do. how about some kind of phone work? if i didn\'t do what i do, i would do the phone thing for cable/internet where they read a script and tell you what to do with your computer or television to get it to work normal again. i would learn a lot and i hear it pays well. do they have that by you. does the government get you jobs?
or what about home health or cna work? xxoo
There\'s a lot of work that I can\'t do because of my feet. I can only be standing for 5-10 minutes without the pain becoming unbearable. I can walk and can be fine for an hour, but I have to be constantly walking and not standing.
I hate scary movies but thats so cool you and Geo can watch something together and enjoy it. Spending time together is great! I will take the fluffy bunnies and rainbows any day of the week over scary stuff lol
Thats great you was able to get out and enjoy some exersice today... i hear mixing up the routine really helps so doing it for speed sometimes and switching between that and distance im sure is a great combination.
I heard social security does things like programs to help people on benifits to start their own business.... not sure if that program even still is around but it might be worth thinking about. Not sure what a good business might be though .... the economy is so uncertain these days.
I love scary movies and like to watch them late at night. Halloween is my favorite time of the year anyways. Hugs, and I hope you can take the test I took and it will help you to know what direction you should go in as far as a job. Just not real happy dealing with Juicy. Hugs Larissa
