A stay-at-home day this week!

Thursday, April 3, 2014

I woke this morning with one bad-ass headache.  So bad, that I didn't think about the fact that today was Thursday, and I'm supposed to walk with Lois on Thursday.  Mind you, it was raining cats and dogs and I had already figured the walking was washed out, so to speak, but I just didn't think of it - and then I saw a text Lois had sent me earlier this morning, saying so.  It had been sent over three hours ago!  God, what a slacker I am...

Anyway, after I got up and my head was so bad, I knew that I wasn't going to go shopping today.  I had kinda thought that I wasn't going to go last night, but this morning, I knew right off for sure that it wasn't going to happen.  Oh, my head hurt so bad, and it still does.  I have had trouble all day with concentrating on my pute, and if I wasn't on the pute, I had trouble concentrating on reading.  I tried just laying my head back on the recliner, but that didn't help, either, so I just muddled through it.  I got dishes done, some prescriptions called in to pick up tomorrow, and got some phone calls made that needed made - which was not fun, not at all.  I hope I can read my notes when I have to.

I did NOT eat all day, I just felt as though if I did, it would be a bad thing, so I didn't even try.  I made Ron one of his cabbage dishes for supper, and we played on the Wii for most of the evening.  When my stomach started rumbling so loud he could hear it, he said I better go eat something, even though I felt I shouldn't, he insisted, so I made myself a PB&J sandwich.  It was only nine o'clock in the evening, so I guess that was a good thing in the long run.

I'm going to eat a nut bar and go to bed.
I have to get up in the morning and go to Norm's visitation and funeral, and then go shopping afterward.  I am carpooling with friends, and won't be able to control the times of leaving and all, so I need to be on my toes!
I am glad that I got ONE stay-at-home day in this crazy, weird, topsy-turvy week, but I certainly wish it could have been a better day for me, but I am not complaining, not too much - it was my choice to stay home, after all.  I could have gone down the road anyway.

Not surprisingly, when I put my measly little sandwich (and snack) into MFP, it hollered at me.  I am over 1000 calories short for the day!  But, you know what?  I'm gonna take my jelly beans in with me to bed, and I'm not gonna worry about it.  I won't take my diabetes pill, and I'll enjoy my nut bar, and I think I'll be fine.

If not, I'll bitch at you tomorrow about the damn sugar low in the middle of the night.
And then I'll rejoice with you because I got to go shopping!
