Seems my sleep schedule is back aboard the crazy train as to each day it differs so much! Thankfully I can sleep in tomorrow if I want to!
And since there is no better time than now (3:06am) to write a blog so be it!
The weekend was good, I feel like I am fighting off another bug of some sort. My sinuses have been hurting and the weather isn't helping. Today I was running a low grade fever again and thankfully it is now gone. My head is pounding away though and I'm still tryin to do my best to avoid Tylenol. If it gets bad enough I will take some. Gotta keep getting those liver enzymes down in the healthy range.
So yesterday Andrew and I went out on a lunch date. I definitely needed to get out if the house as I was feeling quite cooped up. I went down the one step into the garage on my own. **victory is mine!*** Not that I even would have attempted it if someone else wasn't there.
We went to Bjs brew house where I had a delicious glass of H20 and for the first time really missed beer. Although pumpkin ale is no longer in season so I think I can hold out for now.
The app adds the hours and such which makes this all seem very dramatic when I honestly didn't mean for it to be.
Anyhow was on a date with my man drinking a crisp refreshing water and trying not to be all ADD but the table next to us was so close. It was 2 young ladies who at first were discussing some sports event Michigan vs GVSU and the one girl kept asking what college that was. Inner me was screaming GRAND VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY! And trust me I had to hold back because we were so close it was like we were sharing a table. All the while her friend replies "some small never heard of it before college."
They then were discussing the ones secret relationship with Craig and how the skyped that morning but their relationship was secret but she told her "like" bffs and he finally told a few of his friends that makes her very happy.
I then wanted to know why she insisted on having a secret relationship if she really wanted people to know about it? Oh to be 20 again.
So we ordered the Ahi Poke as an appetizers. It was delicious the fish was very fresh I just wish get had chopped it a little smaller more like a tar tar.
Also could have used some more avocados, green onion and the sauce they drizzled but over all was quite tasty and helped satisfy my craving for sushi. (for now perhaps maybe some sushi delivery for Valentines day?)
I think ordered a French dip sandwich which was quite delightful. The horseradish spread was quite potent and I definitely enjoyed it. The wedge fries left little to be desired and I didn't eat them all which I suppose is a good thing!
After we headed over to target to do some shopping.
We were hoping for an electric cart so the shopping experience would be easier since I was in my transfer chair.
It doesn't have the big wheels so I cannot roll myself around. But it looked like it may rain so I didn't want to take my truck and then deal with a wet chair and groceries.
As ALWAYS no electric cart available.
We found a way to make it work. I already had ordered my grocery delivery for this week so I only picked up a few things and still managed to spend way too much money. How does that always happen at target?
I got a new basket for my "kitchen" area of our bedroom and for now it has helped with my Toast issue. She tends to think all tables are hers SO having a TV tray in here resulted in her knocking everything off the table multiple times a day.
But she's very cute!
Lots of 80s Jams (which remind me of Michea now that we have discussed how great the music was lol)
I think it was the wedding singer soundtrack.
I wanted to head upstairs about 10 but Andrew talked me into staying down longer. I finally got upstairs around 12:30ish and promptly passed out as soon as my head hit the pillow.
That would be nice tonight but apparently I am on an every other day schedule haha.
Also Andrew had a rad idea to put his old bike light on my walker! That way if it's too dark in the middle of the night or jugs in general I can turn it on! So cool and I'm so glad he thought of it. I just wish I had thought to tell him to wait until my new walker arrives. Ever since the larger wheels were put on batman walker it's hard to get through doorways SO it will become my "outside" walker once the new one arrives.
Today I woke up feeling miserable.
My head was pounding my face physically hurt from mucus and my jaw was so stiff. I must be clenching my jaw again in my sleep.
I forced myself to take a shower.
This in itself makes me laugh because there used to be a time not that long ago that I could not function without a shower. Now I feel like as long as I don't smell or look homeless then it's acceptable! I really need to get into a routine, but it takes so long when you have to hold the shower head instead of being able to just stand and do it all normally! Oh how I miss the little things.
Anyhow so I showered and then plucked my man brows and thought they looked rather nice. But I still was feeling meh. Andrew went to the comic store and upon his return we watched a few episodes of Black Sails and he made me lunch.
*Side note: I'm still annoyed that my flat out wraps were backordered along with my turkey bacon so this weeks sandwiches are going to be quite a bit different than I'm used to. Oh well make it work!
So Andrew went downstairs to read and I figured I would dive back into Hemlock Grove. Mostly I just want to know what the hell is going on and I keep watching episodes waiting for some indication that my questions will be answered.
First and foremost what the hell is he?
Why does his sisters face light up (blue light) when he touches her?
What does his mom keep putting in her damn eye?
Why is he so obsessed with his cousin?
I just need to know these things! At least the one guy who is a werewolf we know that! And what he is. These other things I've never heard of. So needless to say I watched another 3 episodes and am more confused than ever.
At this point I decided to go downstairs and make myself some dinner.
Nothing fancy today so I went with a quesadilla with guacamole and light sour cream. It was tasty but I could tell my tortillas were going stale since they were a bit more chewy then I would like.
I also prepare my grocery bag for the week. I go through all the stuff I order and decide what I want to bring upstairs. Chop up any veggies and snacks and get everything ready so if I am home alone for dinner I don't have to go downstairs if I don't want to.
At this point I'm feeling quite tingly so that's my cue that I need to take my meds and I hang out in my chair awhile. Andrew was watching Jerry Seinfeld's new web thing something about riding in cars with comedians getting coffee. I find it actually quite funny.
Finally it's time for some walking dead so I mosey on down the next 8 stairs into the living room. Usually I would try and watch upstairs but got too caught up listening to the web series to shimmy up 16 stairs so there's that.
As most of you know I do not like hanging out on that floor as there's no bathroom and it's 8 steps if I can I'd like to avoid.
So it comes time to head back up stairs and my legs are just feeling off. The backside of my right leg feels strange and I just can't describe it. The last few days everything has been feeling very tingly, like it's going to "wake up" soon. I keep that in the back of my mind but I just keep hoping that is what's going to happen. I mean I know it's not likely, but anything can happen so don't shatter my dreams!
So I get up to main level and release urine from tiny bladder chamber and prepare myself for the big climb/scoot.
I promptly make it upstairs and arrange my groceries in mini fridge. Once this is completed I feel like I can enjoy the rest of my evening as all my hard work has paid off. However my hip and knee is hurting so I opt for 1200mg of gabapentin as my bedtime dose as opposed to 600mg. Typically these pils makes me tired, but as you can see that isn't what has happened tonight.
As I type this out though I am starting to feel the sleepiness wash over me.
I think that is my cue to end this now and close my eyes.
I hope you all have a great day!
