I keep forgetting I have this... but husband got approved for disability last week! The pollen is making me very sneezy and my kid is almost a junior in high school 😭

I'm watching Empire Records since it's #RexManningDay

It's such a good movie, one of my favorites. And the soundtrack is so great. I miss the 90's sometimes

Happy Rex Manning Day!

I love my projector - I got it for myself for Christmas. I'm watching Shang-Chi tonight

My kid has a remote learning day - snow in another part of the county. My pain levels are going up but no snow here from what I've seen

We were supposed to get a ton of snow today and while it has been snowing, none of it has stuck. Kid had no school and I thankfully work from home.

I did have a doctor's appt this morning but roads were fine.

For the last hour, the pressure and pain in my head has been rising. More snow coming 😢

It's been raining here in WNC since yesterday and then earlier tonight, our power flashed and gave me a bit of a panic attack.

It's PTSD after Helene since we were without power for 8 days. Longest 8 days of my life

I got myself a mini projector for Christmas and I still love it 😍

My plan for the day is to rest and probably watch the West Wing episode that my kid is watching in her Civics class. It's "Mr. Willis of Ohio".

She likes to talk about it with me after she finishes the episode in class because she knows that The West Wing is one of my all-time favorite shows.

I slept ok but it was substantially worse this morning. Very swollen and lots of pain. I tried to work but the pain got worse trying to look at my screens so I took a sick day.

Got a telehealth visit with my primary doctor and he thinks it's an infection. Got antibiotics and now resting. (2/2)

I'm not having a great day. I woke up on Saturday with my right eyelid a teeny bit swollen. It was more swollen and a bit painful to the touch on Sunday. Was even worse yesterday so I tried ibuprofen and a warm compress as well as going to bed early. (1/2)

I'm a huge MCU fan and a huge Pedro Pascal fan so very excited for the Fantastic Four!

D&D was fun! I am currently watching Demon Slayer because I decided it was time to start it. The kid and I are going to AnimeFest Greenville tomorrow and she is cosplaying as a Demon Slayer character

Dungeons and Dragons time! My favorite way to spend a Friday night
January 31, 2025 at 11:10 PM
Got me and the kid's tickets for #Animetown Greenville for tomorrow! We haven't been to a con since @dragoncon.org so pretty excited!

It is finally Friday and the last day of stupid, neverending January!

I'm still not feeling great probably partly because we are supposed to get some rain today and tomorrow. But that's good because there is a wildfire happening in Old Fort, NC which isn't too far away. Though I just looked it up and it's apparently 55% contained

The last couple of days have been rough. Bad migraine flare and still asthma flaring. Anxiety over the state of the country also. My job is super dependent on Medicaid and I'm terrified.

Hope you all are doing better than me

I was very sick today, still not feeling great. I am really worried about everything. We are trying to get Todd on disability and my job is providing incontinence supplies through Medicaid.

For now, I'm watching anime (Death Note) and waiting for my meds to kick in.

My kid is in the 10th grade and she has Civics this semester. I think it's a very interesting time to be learning about politics and government.

We have had some interesting conversations already

I also went to the food pantry. And I did all my adulting while my kid was working a Girl Scout cookie booth with her troop.

I do need to get some groceries and cat food but that will have to wait until tomorrow

I adulted a bunch today! And I've realized how much my husband did before his stroke.

I had to get my car inspected so I can get my new tags. I've never had to do that before and it was causing me a lot of anxiety. But I got that and an oil change done today.
