Flight of ideas
Racing thoughts
Anxiety
Insomnia
Got up around 12 stayed up till 1:30, helped Ron, went back to bed. Woke up and Ron was having a severe day for pain, but did still manage to hit the mark on the commode yet again. It is such a relief not having to worry about him on the toilet.
He had an absolutely horrible morning for pain. I gave him everything. He finally fell asleep around 1 PM.
Some of the alternative remedies I am using:
Tart Cherry
Magnets
Kratom
Hemp (smoked, I said it was a bad day)
Hemp oil (4 droppers full)
Plus Advil, etc. He collapsed into bed.
I talked to Ron (once he was out of the worst of the pain loop) and agreed to text the plumber, who called me later, and quoted me a horrific price for a new toilet and tub faucet. But we need them.... so a big dent in what we have. But we won't have to worry about either for a while after this, and that will cover every plumbing related thing save the disposal. That was quite a blow...but I am manic so pretty bulletproof for the next little bit.
I'm not sleeping and have horrid anxiety but I am not depressed. He comes Tuesday so it will all be done then.
And, it could be worse. Poor #6 is having a horrible year. He was out front digging up his water pipe from the meter to the house because he has a leak.
I do find it funny I always seem to end up manic before I check in with my doctor. I have been seeing him 14 years now and can only remember a handful of depressed visits. The nice thing about Doc he really has seen it all.
The cats are good, Biscuit got on my chest for a while and was very cuddly, I saw Cleo, gave Baby Girl treats, visited with Spotty, and Torbie is on the couch next to me. It is hot out but praise God the AC is working well.
I was too restless to nap so I got out the chicken thighs, use by the 20th, cooked them up in my skillet. I was under the impression a well seasoned iron skillet wouldn't stick, especially if I used oil. I was apparently wrong. It stuck and made a mess...but I did get it cooked. I have at least a weeks' worth of meals for just a few dollars.
I like the boneless skinless thighs.
Ron has been battling some nausea, I had to give him some bread in the middle of the night to settle his stomach. Large amounts of alcohol are very irritating. He hasn't wanted to eat today but I will fix him some of his rotisserie chicken when he is hungry.
I logged onto my credit card's website (I got a really good malware and anti virus program on my computer so I won't get hacked that way) and saw my payment is due by the 11th. I can do that. They want $30 I can do that.
Next month I will have to call my charities and set that all up again. But my budget so far is actually OK. I plan to use the credit card to pay for my prescriptions next week. It builds a payment history which is good. Then just pay it over a month or two... hopefully sales improve at work.
I really feel a need to build my own credit - which isn't "bad", just "absent" because Ron has paid all the bills. OH I have to go to the cell phone store and fix that, too.

I hate all the details.
But Ron seems to be feeling better, the cats are good, and I do have a mania.
That has got to count for something.
