Still adjusting

Yesterday I was exhausted, and today I’m not much better—but I am better. The two times there was really loud thunder happened when I was awake, luckily. I tried to start off without the mouth t...


Last night was amazingly and surprisingly plane-free, but tonight it’s back to the usual endless parade. I didn’t get woken up by storms as expected, but I still slept shittier than shitty. Firs...


Tom upgraded my desktop while I slept today, and tomorrow, we’re going to move Tink back into her original cage so that she’ll have a little more room around her. We just won’t add the shelves a...

I see hope again

“Congratulations! So and so that you don’t even know has won the contest/sweepstake!” This is one reason I quit sweeping, along with the fact that I don’t stand a chance these days with all the ...

Argh

Even though my score was worse last night—in the 80s instead of the 90s—I have a little more energy today. Not that much, though. I’m still struggling, and I still feel like I always will. I jus...


Not at all surprisingly, I’m back to being tired. It has nothing to do with sleep apnea or the CPAP, though. Try estrogen instead. I started using more because it stopped increasing my PVCs. Las...

I see hope

Written last night: I wish there really were such a thing as an all-purpose cleaner, but Tilex is better for mold and mildew because it sprays more evenly rather than in clumps, CLR is good for...

First night

Starting this entry to the tune of a thunderstorm. Overall, I’d say my first night with the CPAP, even though I didn’t wear it the entire night, was good and bad. I think it was mostly good, tho...

Waiting for the CPAP

Ugh, I had a hellish night! 🙁 It seems I woke up every few minutes gasping for breath whether I was on my stomach or side. My sleep was so broken up that it extended out three hours past when I ...

Finally!

“If the Arabs put down their weapons, there would be peace. If the Jews put down theirs, they would no longer exist.” I believe this wholeheartedly and that self-defense is not genocide, but I ...


Figured I’d go back to regular titles as opposed to dates. My dentist appointment went well. Got to go back in 4 months. It would still help a lot if some of the foreigners coming into the coun...

Here’s a pretty amazing update. When I moved Jade across the room to the long dresser, her responses lessened and eventually stopped altogether, especially when Tom came into the room to observe...

It’s been said that when we close ourselves off from others, it keeps the negative people out, but it also keeps the positive ones out as well. Well, I decided to go public again on PB because t...

Right now, it’s after midnight on the 26th, but I may not have the energy to edit and post this until later on. So yesterday morning was my virtual meeting to discuss the results of my home sle...

Well, that explains why I only got one reaction on my post about the tumor discovery. I had the audience set to my Blogger audience, and right now, I only share links to my Tumblr blog with just...

Written last night… I knew this day would come and that it was getting close, but it doesn’t make it any easier. Especially with this rat. Yeah, our little Tinkerbella has a tumor, and this wou...

Where I had a little more energy yesterday than the day before, I have even more today after another night of better sleep. So this proves even more that my problem with energy lies within sleep...

Tom’s at the lab now getting blood drawn, and since I haven’t gotten much alone time lately, I thought I would focus on a journal entry. I finished both nights of testing, and after I removed t...

The first night of sleep testing was a success, but my sleep sure wasn’t. The last couple of nights, I heard a loud motor and wasn’t sure if it was on the ground or in the sky. So I was a little...

It’s here! The tester is in Port Richey and out for delivery, and I can begin step 2 out of 5. Hopefully, there will be no technical issues or delays. Tonight and tomorrow night, I will be sleep...

In bed while Tom is out donating, and feeling shitty as ever. I slept so badly and my fatigue is off the charts. I think if it weren’t for the fact that the test is coming tomorrow, I would be e...

Slept better last night. Of course, I had to get up to pee, and then I had a coughing fit when I got a tickle in my throat. I didn’t take anything before or during my sleep, though. Yesterday’s...

Had better energy yesterday, but today I’m exhausted because my sleep got broken up again. In less than four hours, I’ll have my virtual appointment with one of Circle Medical’s primary care doc...

I said I would leave Pinterest if they continued to steal my pins even with a private account. Well, after a decade, I just did! I turned the account back to public, and they can take whatever t...
