I am completely drained and I don't know why. Okay I did get up
a little earlier than usual--around 8:30
AM--did my usual morning things: read newspaper, did crossword puzzle, jumble,
feed and change water for the birds.
John picked me up at 12:15 and we
drove out to the Sunrise11 movie house to meet Allen and then went to see "The
Duchess"--see review next blog--after
that we went to Walgreen's, then for a bite to eat at Cheddars, a new restaurant
chain--inexpensive, good portions, good food, all in an nice atmosphere. Allen
went home and John drove me to Publix to pick up a few groceries and then stopped so I could pick up my laundry an shirts.
I got home at 6 PM and cannot tell you how tired I was and still
am. Maybe, even though I didn't do anything strenuous, I am pushing myself too
hard?? I really don't know. I have switched some of my medicines around taking
them in the evening instead of morning as some had side effects of making you
drowsy, tired, but I don't take them until after 9 PM. I do take my two
tranquillizers at night--around 11 PM--but I have been
skipping one of the 1/2 pills during the day the past few days to see if that
will make me feel less sleepy during the day and yet not have anxiety attacks
but I'm still sleepy all day and unable to sleep. Crazy!
I have been having ear problems--long story that I won't get
into except to say that after irrigating my ear two days in a row the nurse told
me to get a Debrox ear wax removal kit, use it and then come back to her--that
was why we stopped at Walgreen's--I will use it Tomorrow, Sunday, Monday,
Tuesday and go back on Wednesday--that has sort have been annoying me (I feel
& sound like I am talking in an echo chamber.)
I keep hearing and am constantly being told that it will take at
least 6 months if not a year to get back to my old self but I am having a hard
time 'adjusting' to the new me.
I certainly plan to have a LONG talk
with the psychiatrist next time I see him--Oct. 13!!!!---IF he is
suppose to help me seeing me for 10 minutes and increasing the tranquillizers
won't do it!
Sorry to moan, groan, whine, etc., but every once in awhile it
gets to be too much for me and this evening is one of those times and I haven't
even mentioned half the things that are bugging me!!! :O)
