My guts have been finicky all day. I got some yogurt to hopefully help that out, but I'm going to just go to bed first tonight. I got my shopping done for the next week or so and I'm exhausted tonight.
Sleep well.

I've been seeing a few posts about the outrage that rape has been used by Israeli soldiers during the Palestinian genocide. I, too, am outraged by rape, and I also cannot find myself outraged by those acts alone. The cruelty is the point. It is why the whole must be taken into account.

First working day off my week off. Typical that my ADHD brain wants to do EVERYTHING at once. My body is still tired and my stamina isn't great. I have to plan things out in a measured way.
So, today is for one load of laundry. Prepping my Whatnot sales to mail. Making dinner. That's it.

Today was the last of the antibiotics. I am hoping the fatigue goes away soon. That has been less than fun.

The DOE can fuck all the way off. Shortage of social workers/therapists, teachers, nurses, physical therapists? Let's just do what we can to make students for these degree programs not eligible for "professional degree" loan programs.

I'm really hoping I wake up feeling able to work tomorrow because rest can be kind of boring. And I have all week next week to be bored on vacation.
P.S. I won't be bored but it would also be nice to feel up to doing something during the time I'm off.
How are all of you?

I'm glad I insisted on more after the chest Xray of my lung infection showed nebulous "scarring." I had a CT on Monday night and it just came back, pointing to continued probable infection. So another round of antibiotics.
And it caught something else.

My roommate tells me that the earthquake that had its epicenter 2.5 miles from my house sounded like a huge crack. I just hope it wasn't my house and it was the earth 'cause I can't afford to fix that.
It was only a 3.6 and lasted for just a moment. Nothing has fallen down.

I need to understand what Vico means to my brain. I have now had 2 dreams about them in the past 2 weeks. This one this morning was literally as I was oversleeping. I went to the smallest Comicon ever and they were there as the only OFMD crew.

I did all the adulting today:
Talked about coping with vicarious trauma with my supervision group.
Made myself get out of bed and actually work today when I didn't want to.
Made myself go to my CT scan appointment.
Put medicated ointment in my kitty's eye

No kids on Halloween, but that just means more goodies for me.
Jackson got some meds for his eye.
I have been spending a lot of money.
I am reading a Motorcycle Club Gay Romance series.
Be well, my friends.

Except to post my selling nonsense and the bad news of my day, I feel like I've hardly been around.

OMG! I just had the best Whatnot show!
I've only been doing this for a bit, so my shows aren't always well attended, but I decided to go for a brooch show today. The most I've sold in the past was about 28 items, and the highest purchase was about $5. Today I sold over 60 items at $2 starts.

Jackson has started peeing and pooping everywhere. And, he is hiding under his foot stool. I am scared that he is getting closer to the end.
Also I'm having pulmonary testing, a CT scan - and I have arthritis in the joint at the base of both my thumbs.
Also ICE is in the East Bay. This all sucks!

I'm reading a gay romance about two former "road men" (read: British gang members), and I've realized that the reason that I don't usually read books about the mob or other organized crime folks is the anxiety. The one guy is stealing drugs to try to pay his way fully out of his gang. ACK!
