[wa...] Posted December 6, 2017 Author Share Posted December 6, 2017 wow, Ging -- good. I'm going to do my little floor physical therapy things later. I feel like this wave is lifting. It was hell yesterday until about 2 in the aft. I walked dog and am actually performing the dreaded filing of piles of paper that has accumulated this last year.

[wa...] Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 Good on everyone! I made it through a marathon hair salon appointment because vanity knows no limitations. I was very ill, too, since I had a terrible reaction to yet another antibiotic. This time it was Minocycline. I guess my sore throat is permanent. Once I figured out my symptoms were due to that, I was able to soldier on. Funny how meeting the demands of the withdrawal detective keeps symptoms more manageable. I sure wish I felt as good as my hair looks right now. W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those mirrors where one can look at other ppl without them knowing. Must check if my fav hairdresser is available this week. Used to have facials every two weeks, that was life! Now I had a facial two weeks ago and I’d like to have another one this week... True, WBB. Vanity knows no limitations. I only do manicure/pedicure by myself, cause it bores me talking to all those ladies. Waste of time and money. Kitty’s beauty spa and photo session. She’s a princess, so wonderful. Sorted all the dreadful Social Security papers and those for further govt. disability benefit in Fall next year (by 60%). Dishes and laundry all the time, the usual stuff. Ad nauseam. One self-help audiobook every three days. Studying photography by myself with the aid of books and photo tutorials. Having written many official letters, visited several doctors. Decluttering project: 5%. That’s more or less a recap of the last two weeks. I feel like crying when I look at it. Throwing parties at my place? C’mon, that’s sci-fi... Haven’t had a drink in 15 yrs. Maybe I could drink socially once or twice a year. But since my husband is a recovering alcoholic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
