And How Was the DISCO? in These Foolish Things

Haven’t written since Friday, obviously. Haven’t really felt like writing. It wasn’t because I was feeling terrible, per se. I think I feel like writing more when I’m sitting at a desk and have a screen in front of me and I’m all ready to go.
It’s Monday and I’m back at the office.
Friday was actually a really good day. The disconnect felt good…and freeing. No longer being connected to Foxy felt juuuuuussst fine. It truly was a mental and physical release. I haven’t yet received my fancy bag for Foxy, but I’m hoping that will give me a little more oomph for having to have a ball of “juice” attached to me.
Went to bed early on Friday night and was afraid that I was already starting to feel nauseous, so I decided to take some meds. SO glad [Athena] reminded me to tell the NP that I react strongly to pain meds because she’d told me to start with 1/2 a tab.
Well, to test the waters I started with 1/4 and you know what? It knocked me OUT. I was asleep for the rest of the night.
Woke feeling rested and actually good-ish, though I knew I needed to put something in my stomach pretty quickly. I’m finding if I have a little food in there at all times it’s pretty good so far. But again, this is the start. I have a ways to go. Learning as I go.
Only had one thing planned on Saturday and that was to take the dog to her annual physical at the vet. Got through that. Got through a couple of dog walks in the fresh air. And even had enough energy and good feelings to hang with the neighbors on the roof on Saturday evening and have a snack and talk. Oh, it was wonderful. Another learning: fresh air is life. So are friends.
Mom and Dad came on Sunday and we went to lunch. I felt tired but decent when I was with them and we had a super pleasant lunch and then I walked in my favorite park with the dog for a long time.
In bed early again (pretty sure that’s gonna be my thing for a while), and up bright and early. Felt slightly nauseous this morning, but I was able to do a modified workout and make it to work.
Found out at work today that some things are changing and Boss will no longer be my Boss. I will be working under a peer who got promoted. I’m okay with this right now. I just need to keep my JOB until this ordeal is over and then I can resume my plans for world domination.
This thing is a speedbump. It is going to slow me down for a bit, but it will not stop me. I have things to do and people to see and so, so much.
Better get a move-on. Workday is over!

Glad your disco wasn’t too onerous - I like the idea of the whole thing being a speedbump :) The whole boss shifting thing sounds like a good move - you surely can’t get anyone worse!!

Glad it went well and that you are feeling good.

Sounds pretty decent. Hope it doesn’t escalate.
Your new boss can’t be as much of an asshole as your current one.

All in all, not a bad first DISCO experience.

Hoping your new supervisor is better than your boss was.
