Been in the shower. Boiling egg for breakfast.
Going to an appointment to psychiatry in a few hours. Feel like just kill me already.
Psychiatry here in town have pretty much imploded after yet another report about the bad conditions for patients. Many doctors have openly declared they have no confidence in the organization. So at least I hope we can skip the whole charade about how I absolutely can trust them.

Pretty good, for my standards. I finally managed to scrape up the motivation to grab my notebook and write some lyrics again. I feel like I've gotten a lot better, and I think the song I'm working on right now could be the best one I've ever written. I might even make a thread where I post my songs soon : )
Off day at work. Behind in my knitting class. I guess I'll try youtube videos to learn more. There's people in the beginner class that already know how to knit, so they fly ahead. I dont even want to go. Supposed to he dieting and had a peanut butter milkshake. Tired of things, situations and people too
I’m sorry that happened. I’m pretty livid when mistakes are made with my ID or any official document! I would suggest that bureaucrats are the spawn of Satan himself, but that would disparage the work of a true master.
I agree with the saying that we should not attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence. However, I am still considering which of the two creates the most suffering.
A well-intentioned but uninformed individual with power can and usually does inflict enormous pain downstream. This is, IMHO, the reason I despise top down authority…
A competent individual with evil intentions, by contrast, tends to create less collateral damage along the way of carrying out their crimes. 😈

I’m tired and it’s entirely my fault. I’m not going to bed on time because of my OCD “rituals.” I have to somehow get a sense of some kind of symmetry or completion before I get ready for bed. This usually takes 2 hours of time spent on tasks that I must complete but have no real benefit each night.
I’m going to set an alarm for bedtime tonight. The intention being that I will take my night meds (the ones I take at night because they are too sedating for daytime) by 11:00 pm no matter what. When I swallow those pills, I have usually 75 minutes to 2 hours before I pass out. Then I must prioritize being in bed on time. I will pass out and I’d rather not be injured. Don’t ask me how I know, but I know.

Apropos of kettles, I am drinking more tea lately. I got a tin of loose leaf English Breakfast tea for my Arnold Palmer dependency.
However, when I taste it alone after brewing, it’s really good, as in delicate but also flavorful. It then seems a little uncouth to mix it with lemonade so I also drink it hot just to enjoy it.

Oh dear Barb, I know that I feel the same at times, and probably more times than not. I think you mentioned an interest in crochet before? Does it at least give you a break from the distress? I’m asking because I know that I usually feel better when my hands are doing something that I enjoy. Lately that seems to be a lot of typing, oof!
I’m not saying that as advice, but just wondering if focusing on something creative is helpful for you. Either way I will send you some compassion for relief from the stress!

It’s a beginner class!
I understand that it feels bad to feel like you’re falling behind. I am used to being in the top 10% of any class (except for team sports, who tf came up with Little League baseball?), or the expert problem solver at work who is the go-to when people get stuck on how to do something in Excel. Not being “that guy” feels like I’m useless.
I’m also endeavoring to lose weight, but my hunger cues have not gotten the memo yet! Yesterday I had a 4-piece fried chicken box for lunch. I know it’s terrible for me, especially now that my triglycerides are scary high, but damned if I had the slightest interest in anything from the produce section.

What’s a lich? I envy you on the coffee. I have all but lost interest in it because I have to drink 3 cups to feel anything, and 5 cups to overcome fatigue. Which is pretty hard on my aging system. I have taken a 4 week tolerance break based on the advice of multiple health magazines like “Prevention.” Still hardly works for me. I have consigned myself to learning how to sleep so that I am not so tired, but it’s a steep trail to climb so far,
