I wanted to skip my mental health appointment today so bad. My brain was going through different excuses I can make up maybe I’m too tired to drive or too much in pain, I was thinking how far it was to drive (it’s not far my brain just wanted  an excuse). Then I suddenly got a text that said don’t forget about our new location… That’s like 3 miles from my house. So fiiiiiiiinnnnnaaaaaa I’ll goooooo. I don’t wannnnaaaa

So I’m pretty sure I broke my foot. At first I thought it was gout because it mostly hurt in my toe but now my whole foot hurts especially the inside around the arch. So I’m gonna go get an x-ray tomorrow yay wish me luck. I hate having brittle bones… The amount old enough for that yet stupid prednisone

Someone asked me how many meds I’m on. I currently have 16 (different) pills, 2 patches, 4 creams and 2 liquids. It’s a lot to keep track of. They all have their own time, one patch is twice a week, one is every 3 days, some meds are once a week some are twice a day. It’s a lot to remember but they kept me alive for moments like this. I was given a 2% chance to live about a month or so before the first day of kindergarten. I almost missed every day between these pics and I am so blessed to be here for him and see him grow🥹

I don't know when, how or why it happened, but... more than a bit ago I woke up when Joseph came in my room looking for something and he said "Oh! When did you get new glasses?" Apparently I fell asleep at some point with my glasses on.

However:
1) I remember taking my glasses off when I was reading
2)I did NOT get new glasses. Last new ones were 6 years ago when we moved here.
3) Why are my actual current glasses NOT on my nightstand in their designated spot?

It has been at least 3 weeks and I am no closer to finding my ACTUAL current glasses than I was that morning nor do I remember why, when or what happened to my current ones.

Marching season begins! Been doing door monitor for the past 3 days. It’s fun to watch them learn the routine! Last year they were on a different field so I couldn’t see them from my posting. Don’t forget your stretching and warm ups before marching!

One of my friends and followers suggested this and I decided why the hell not. I got the bar for eczema and psoriasis. It is 30 some dollars plus shipping and I figure, that’s two bottles of mediocre to good Ish lotion and I’ve bought way more than that trying to soothe these fu***ng fingers that feel like they’re on fire right now. I’ll keep you posted…
