Life With Depression #56 - Sandy Ashley

6-19-20: This week has been a rough week. Migraines pretty much every day. My knee started hurting Wednesday night at work I think. I'm still waiting to hear from the specialist to get an appointment. I'm waiting for my upped meds to kick in for my migraines, but I'm pretty sure they won't. I'm off two weeks now for the 4th of July shut down. I go in on the 28th to build 21 parts which I believe is the stupidest thing I ever heard of. Which I told my boss too and he just laughed at because 1 it's true and 2 because some things at my job I'm very vocal about. He trying to get me out of it though. We will see what happens. He is pretty awesome though. Gave me $50 bucks for my daughter's birthday. He fun to joke with. I did get him something with a gift card I got for free as a token of my appreciation. I'll have it for him if I do in on the 28th. My daughter birthday party is the 27th which I'm excited for. I wrapped all but 2 presents I had in my ...

Invisible Illness Diary #39 - More Allergies - Kate Marie Robbins

June 9, 2020: Can I just say I hate summer? Because I do. I don't like the heat, I don't like the humidity. And I don't like the bugs. Mostly because I am allergic. I'm not sure what bugs it is, but when I get bit, I swell up bad. I take allergy medication as a preventative measure and I still swell up, just not as badly as I would without the meds. I got one on Saturday on my neck that swelled up. They don't itch, but they hurt. It's finally starting to go away. I'm already over it.  My sleep is still pretty messed up. But it's been easier with my schedule switched. So I'm thankful for that. Some days I just want to sleep all day, but I don't. I have too much to do. But it's what I want to do. I need a break or a vacation or something. But that's not going to happen any time soon, sadly.

Invisible Illness Diary #38 - Progress - Kate Marie Robbins

June 1, 2020: Today is the beginning of what should have been a hellish week, instead it starts out with two glorious days off and I couldn't be happier about that. I'm hoping this makes a huge difference. Things are still sucky at work, but at least I'm not going into it completely exhausted. So that's something. Not much else to report on really. My anxiety and emotions are up and down, but I'm coping. 

Invisible Illness Diary #37 - Good Changes - Kate Marie Robbins

May 26, 2020: Things are pretty okay this week. I got a pay raise at work, so that was nice. And I got my hours switched around a bit, in hopes of breaking up that awful long week I have. So thankful about that. But at the same time, we lost a housekeeper, so that sucks. And I wish things could go back to normal, but that's probably going to be a while. We had a hard enough time hiring someone before things went to shit. So I don't know about that and what's all going to happen. I'm trying my best though. In other news, I'm almost done with the novel I've been writing! And I have that is coming out on Friday! So that's kind of exciting. I don't really have anything else to talk about today.
