Song: N/A
Mood: 5
I didn’t get much sleep last night. For some reason, my nighttime medications don’t seem to be doing the job anymore. They used to make me very tired about two hours after I took them. They’d make my mouth really dry, too. I’m not experiencing any of those effects anymore and last night it was after 2AM when I finally fell asleep. Once I take my morning pills and they kick in, I’m wide awake so sneaking in a nap doesn’t look like it’ll work. This isn’t a huge deal for a couple of days but if it keeps up I’m worried that I’m going to start hearing voices and having other troubles again.
Despite the lack of sleep, I think I’m feeling a little better today. I still spent an awful lot of time on the couch, but my mood has lifted a bit and I don’t feel like everything is utterly impossible and hopeless right now.
I got some bad news from a good friend yesterday evening – it sounds like he may have cancer. I feel really bad for him and hope that it’s a false positive or something like that. I’ve got my fingers and toes crossed that he gets good news at his next appointment. I wish there was something I could do to help him out.
I’m not sure what I’m going to do this weekend. I have an appointment for a haircut on Saturday afternoon but other than that, my weekend is wide open. If it’s not too warm, I think I’ll spend some time in the garage doing some welding and maybe make a bird feeder hook for the deck. If I can pull myself together, I may also go for a motorcycle ride.
FA is going to come over on Tuesday. We don’t have any specific project to do this time but it will be really good to see her again. We’ll probably go to the hardware store again and wander around – that’s always fun.
Hopefully tonight I’ll get more sleep and I’ll continue to feel better tomorrow.
Stay safe.
