Stress overload. Mom has a temperature of 101.8. She is freezing and acting strange. She refuses to go the the hospital. She said she may let me take her tomorrow night.

Her birthday is tomorrow so I think she's holding off. :(

Wrang1er, sorry your mom isn't feeling well. Hopefully she'll get better without needing a trip to the hospital.

I am feeling accomplished! I got a lot done today. I sorted clothes, put together a box for the thrift store, cleaned the kitchen and a bathroom. Pretty good for a holiday weekend, I think.

I hope so, Ma'am. I went shopping for her and picked up sandwiches for us. She ate a little and then went to throw her sandwich out the front door. I asked what she was doing and she said she didn't want it and was going to feed the dog. We don't have a dog.

I'm so sorry. I think that goes beyond chemo brain. I hope you can get her seen tomorrow, or the next day so she can have her birthday. Please keep us posted.

Mom is feeling better today. Her fever broke last night. She seemed to enjoy her birthday celebration. :)

Thanks to all of you for your kind words and good juju!

P. S. We have an 8:30 appointment with her oncologist followed by chemo so I will tell him all about this past week.

Wrang, that's great. Let us know how it goes, please.

I'm feeling... not ready for the work week. I have to drive three hours this morning with a super talker. A perky super talker. And then do a bidders conference with her and then drive her home. My ears will probably be bleeding by 11am today. Please send vibes to keep me sane.

I hope it goes well. Good luck!

I couldn't do it. There would be bodies.

Sending you good juju!

Good and rested. Didn't do much over the weekend. Am back at work hoping I don't have to squeeze five days of work into a 4-day work week.

:pursebee:

Tired as fuck. But this journey has just started.

:missing:

Frazzled, anxious - it's going to be so crazy. Supposedly the construction will be done/all my things moved back by 3PM the on the 27th. The 28th I do the walk through at the new place and if all goes well I'll have the 29th to get moved and the 30th to come back here and clean. I've read online about people having trouble getting their deposits back, failing for things they weren't aware of, later getting a surprise notice demanding payment in full by such and such date. Then landing in collections if they couldn't pay their fines pronto. So I want to get all the cleaning done early that way if something fails I'll have time to fix it. It's really stressing me out. Also, though I've seen simplified drawings, pictures of other places they've built in the past and have a general idea of what I'm getting into, I don't actually know what these apartments look like and, well seeing is believing. Only two other places in my price range have openings, there are long waiting lists everywhere else, and both are in less safe neighborhoods than the one my worker wants me out of so I really can't go wrong - I'm fortunate to be getting into this place. Besides my son told me if at the end of my lease I'm not happy there then they'll help me get into another apartment. That might take awhile but I wouldn't be stuck there. I'm taking everyone's advise and keeping my name on waiting lists at two other apartments. Neither is as nice as where I'm moving to but both are nicer than where I'm at now and I think I could be happy at either if this one doesn't work out.

Feeling great... no more guilt about shopping at Walmart!

Amazing how businesses are always miles ahead of politicians in terms of gauging public sentiment. Now watch Trump start trying to crawl his greasy way aboard the gun regulation train.

Feeling like all of a sudden I'm behind at work. I keep working on the same stuff, never getting anything completely done. It's progressing, I just can't mark anything off my list.

I'm home from my work trip with no body count or criminal record so I'm feeling proud of myself. I'm also feeling exhausted from surviving the experience. She literally never took more than three seconds between sentences and that was just to take a deep breath.

Extremely relieved!
 

I'm feeling like I can SO relate to the above post by easy.

I do have a certain person in my everyday life who is a constant talker, but at least she is aware of it and now it's become a running joke between us.....

Let's face it, there is no tactful way to tell someone to shut up!

Tired, excited, emotional...

Less stressed. Having to re-pack some of this stuff has put me behind a bit. Today I let go of the idea of getting it all done right and just gave myself permission to get it all done. So I'm just flinging it all together, I'm not even labeling stuff. Everything I need to survive until I'm done moving is set aside, everything else well I'm not working so it isn't like there isn't going to be time to sort it all out, get fussy about it later. I feel burn out coming on so in order to avoid a crash I'm giving myself the day off. It's difficult. Earlier I passed a corn cob pick I must have dropped, went to pick it up off the counter and drop it in a partially filled packing box and had to force myself to stop. Oh just let this moving hell be over. That's my prayer today.

Lmao. YES.

Feeling
 

My shoulder is still sore from the rebuild job but I plan to go to work tomorrow, sling and all. I was reminded that I can come home at anytime if it becomes too much.

:cowboy:

Exhausted and worried.

I feel your pain, sister.

I have these dreams quite often! Looking all over for a bathroom only to find one with a long line...or one with no doors on the stall and a million people watching...and you try to go, but you can’t because everyone is watching. Lol.

head cold has me K.O.'d. People at work were laughing because I was so over the counter drugged up just to get thru my class. I was leaning on counter tops..

Yes it was that bad, but I could not find anyone to cover my class. UGH. Now others are getting sick too, and well... they are blamin me... Shrugs I have broad shoulders, I can take it. :hamactor:

I woke up feeling quite chipper this morning. It’s been a minute.

And, it’s finally Friday, so...:dance1:

I feel pretty well, today! I got 12 hours of uninterrupted sleep last night. Tiny Dog made it through the night without any more bouts of an upset tummy. Diva Kitty decided to sleep with me all night long on the bed. It was a good sleep.

Me too! And boy am I glad it's Friday!!

Super anxious.

it is amazing what sleep will do for you. After yesterdays OTC drug induced "coma", I was able to get a solid 5 hours of continuous, uninterrupted sleep! woohooo. Not feeling 100% yet, but definitely well rested!

Feeling
 

My shoulder still hurts but no more big pain pills and I am happy about that. Thanks to FMLA I am working a reduced work schedule this week.
The shoulder looks pretty gross, I caught a glimpse this morning, looks like the surgeon took a baseball bat to it. Ha!

Otherwise, I am happy.

Good but tired. Will work this weekend, but can work from home, I think. I'll know better later this morning. Will leave work early and stop to get a mani/pedi then back at it tomorrow morning.

Could be worse ... much worse.

:pursebee:

i feel way better than i have been feeling the past two weeks. I feel like my body is finally catching up on the much needed sleep it missed out with the cold/bronchitis/whatever i had......

but exhausted still from maintaining the level of assignments, meetings, teaching responsibilities, as well as, any personal and social relationships... ugh. it's hard

Feeling good because people are working with me and not against me. Makes a world of difference.

Feeling tired. Not crazy tired, but I know I need a vacation. Am thinking of a trip to NYC or the Bahamas this winter, but I really should stay home, get a new knee, and save some money.

Feeling cute because I've got on one of my favorite dresses.

:pursebee:

Tired...

And over all this rain we have here in Se Texas.

Thanks Imelda lol
