I've made some interesting observations about my diet: when I eat wheat, I cough a lot afterward. Hm. Let's add the rare outbreak of hives and I think I have a wheat issue.
I got a few things this week for my "last meal" - like, ice cream, a stuffed crust pizza (if you are not low carbing, the Walmart Stuffed Crust Pizza - the one you find in the deli, is excellent), etc, and without fail, wheat = coughing.
Ron hates that cough. He's going to love next week. No wheat, no cough.
Depression was pretty bad today, but I did OK. We went to the warehouse and got some supplies, then we went to work and stocked them. I got 4 kinds of pastries. They are all proven best-sellers.
The Honey Buns were so large I had a hard time closing the tray. When I stock a snack machine, I - visual aid:
This snack machine has 6 trays that run from left to right. They have various release mechanisms (I stock 3 different types of snack machines). I engage the release mechanism and pull out the tray. Each tray has several coils, running from back to front. I put one item into each coil slot until the tray is full, then I push it back into the machine.
The honeybuns were so tall, I had a hard time shoving the tray into the machine! I tested them, though, and they will vend properly.
I HATE getting ripped off by a vending machine, so I always check. I helped Ron stock everything else, food, bottled soda, canned soda, coffee. We filed the sales tax. "Our quarterly mugging" I call it.
We are a SMALL business so we can file quarterly and mail a check. It's good for postal business anyway. That would be kind of rude to e-file.
The second quarter of last year, I filled out the check, except for the amount! I had our ID number and everything, signed it, dated, but no amount! The man who called was very nice about the whole thing, especially when Ron told him I am medicated.
I was careful to check, the check, before I sealed the envelope. All done.
I loaded up a small hand cart with sodas for the Christian bookstore. They need a couple of cases. We're going tomorrow.
We did it all! Then we left, and came home.
I took a nap, Ron went to the liquor store. I had a nightmare. It was pretty ugly. I guess that's God's way of keeping me upright when I'm depressed. He knows I'd rather live in bed when depressed.
One time, almost 20 years ago, Ron timed me. I spent 16 hours straight in bed on a day off. That is very sad.
At any rate, I get a little mania pop up now and then. So, this will end. I only took the boring cough stuff (the guiafenesen tablet - doesn't do anything but a dry mouth).
Ron and I have a busy day tomorrow. Good. I need it.

I sleep and sleep and sleep when I am depressed. It is like I have been bitten by a Tesetse fly
I empathize. The pain of my arthritis is what finally gets me up
