Early Tuesday

Still a little uproar with Baby Girl and Cleo, but manageable.  It's a big house for a cat and they have a cat door. 

So, Ron explained a little: "I I told her we had a flood and I couldn't do the report, she said she could average previous years and do it that way".  So I may not be unemployed after all.  I agree the pills have affected him but they do help, somewhat, on his back. 

She has great sympathy for him.  I plan to clean him up a little and trim his beard before their appointment. 

The movers took my stash of magnets so I asked for some more, which doc provided.  I forgot to get the tape, though. 

Ron had an allergic reaction to the tape the doctor used, I don't know what type or brand he used but Ron's skin was very unhappy.  I will have to get the hypoallergenic when I do get it. 

TMI ALERT

I had digestive troubles again; this happens with me when I am extremely stressed, my digestion goes to hell.  I am backed up with severe cramping lately and I have had to take OTC medication.  But I don't want to be the person taking laxatives all the time. 

OK TO READ AGAIN

So I have to manage that in a wise manner.  One thing I decided I really need to do is a food/supplement log.  Write everything down and times.  The movers took all my notebooks but I bought a couple. 

I slept pretty horribly last night, it is not the bed, it's my head.  :p 

But I either trust God or I don't.  Tomorrow I see my aunt and my doctor.  He needs to be kept up to date.  I feel like I am stuck in a garbage compactor like that scene in Star Wars.  He needs to be aware of this... I know I am at risk of snapping but I cannot afford a hospital stay so I have to tape it all together on my own. 

Today I just have my Walmart delivery around 4.  Tomorrow I see my doctor, lunch with my aunt, and then clean Ron up. 

Ron asked me to move my bed back into the bedroom which is a reasonable request, but the floor was very dirty and I didn't want to walk on it in bare feet.  Once I figured that as my reluctance it was easy enough to sweep, and I got a lot.  It was pretty easy to move everything, the cot is super light and very easy to move.  So that is set up in my bedroom.  I also forgot the "good" heater vent is in my room and I am directly under that now, I'm going to love that.  I still have the 2 sleeping bags zipped together plus the afghan as well. 

The cats are good, Torbie is sleeping by my foot, Cleo and Spotty came and said hello while I was in the bathroom - the nice thing about having the "open" floor plan.  Ron gave Baby Girl some treats and Biscuit is good. 

Mama may have found another house which is OK but I would like to hear it of course.  I do feel good about having her fixed and shots.  Everyone is fixed and shots, and a chip.  That is about all I can do for them at the end of it. 

My allergies have been pretty bad lately and I develop a very annoying dry cough when they're very bad.  Ron is not a fan.  I have been told again and again to use the nasal allergy spray but most of them cause severe migraines. 

BUT I tried the generic Nasocort this weekend and no side effects, no headache, and significant help with the cough.  I am a fan.  I am not a fan of snorting wet crap up my nose every morning but if it helps me smell better and stops the cough I will do it.  It was also very affordable.  And I am significantly less congested, just after a few days. 

I can't take decongestants as they will cause a fatal seizure interacting with the antidepressant.  Glad I read the papers that come with my medication!  That would be a horrible way to die. 

Oh, I'm tired and I've been up for a whole hour.  But I am going to get through this.
