vega57 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Still working on the pool cage, bike riding and trying to do some reading. I was at a local bookstore and an author, Eileen Cook was there and I was fortunate enough to get this book signed along with a letter summarizing it and a bit about herself. Tomorrow I'm going on an all day bike ride hopefully getting ready for a longer one. The Big Bear annual bike ride is soon coming up. I hope to get a sponsor, it's to expensive for me to spend 5 days up there; one day racing and a few more camping and riding. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recherche_Misfit Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 (Sigh) I had an extremely stressful day at work, again. My mentality was ultimately shattered, collapsing from impetuous tasks, unrealistic expectations and passive-aggressive bullying. So, I wrote my workplace resignation letter today. TWO WEEKS, PEACE OUT 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highanxiety Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Started higher dose of Wellbutrin today. Feel okay but a little out of it. Too numb to be depressed or really worry about anything which I guess is good. Full effects of increase probably will not be felt for two weeks. Had some more disturbing news from one of my specialists. Kidney functions have been a problem for years but stable. Just learned at doctor I am at about stage 4 kidney disease now. Seem to be kind of falling apart physically. Hope for better news in the coming weeks. On the bright side the dosage increase of my depression medicine came at a good time. Best to all!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsm Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Trying hard to adjust to my new career. I changed the theme of my blog from posting deals to being a youtuber. Very, very unusal for me to be so way out there, but I find it's easier than talking to people directly. Today I need to dye my hair to get rid of some gray. I hope I can get that accomplished. Also need to go out to mail something. I think I can handle that too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vega57 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Finished setting up the pumps and filters for the pool. Had a family yard sale; everything came from a coworker of one of son in laws. He decided to buy a motor home and make his full time home. Tonight we are all going to dinner with the proceeds. But no matter what we do I always have things on my mind that stops me from fully enjoying the good times. I wish just one time I could relax and enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duck Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Friday I went to Art Therapy, then had coffee with my friend Pam then to Starbucks where I met another friend. Later I had fries and chicken at a new place and drinks at Next Act Pub where I met my favourite server named Sky. I forgot to move my car after midnight and I got a parking ticket for $75. Duh. Saturday I slept all day and briefly visited with my big sister and niece then slept again. Woke up Sunday morning at 1am. and still up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highanxiety Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Dealing with an increase in my dosage of Wellbutrin XL. From 300 mg to 450 mg. Felt a little fuzzy the first couple of days, but now seem to be adjusting. Actually I think it is helping. I don't feel so much despair and hopelessness as before. I think my doctor suggesting this increase was wise for my situation. Still, I seem to carry the weight of the world on my shoulders. The state of the world seems in so much turmoil. There seems to be little good news anymore. For me, what is happening in the world is depressing enough that sometimes I just want to leave it so I won't see the collateral damage. I am so glad I see my counselor on Thursday to get a reality check. Hope everyone is having the best day they can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highanxiety Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) Some funny scenes I came across from "Airplane" the movie. Should bring you a couple of laughs even if you feel you could never again. Just for fun! Kind of mature subject matter so viewer discretion advised!

duck Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 This website was not working yesterday at least I could not access it.

verDominai Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) So yesterday on my way to the local grocery store I encountered an old man sitting on a street corner, who asked me for change. But since I'm an anxious social spaz I kind of didn't reply and kept walking. After a bit, I felt terrible and I went back to give him some, but he was gone. Today, I encountered another beggar on my way to the grocery store, and I at first apologized and said I had nothing to give (which was true), but after shopping I gave him the change. Not a lot, but enough to make me feel less bad about yesterday. I don't even care if he could have been one of the "fake" beggars as people call them, I feel pretty good about it.

Knocks Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 In the last 24 hours I cleared my work queue, did some neglected banking, went on a beautiful 3 hour hike with DD5, finished 3 loads of laundry and 2 loads of dishes, had a long ginger epsom-salt bath, and started our taxes which I've been very anxiously putting off. The tax thing is a particular relief to get started, as I've been worried about even having the proper passwords and logging on. Every year I freak out about doing taxes. Trying to look forward to the relief of finishing, but I need to slog through it all first. Shudder. Over the weekend I took care of some overdue dental stuff, bought a summery dress, and met up with an old friend that I hadn't seen in a dozen years. Bonsai steps. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camille19 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I'm trying to make myself take a shower! It takes so much effort and energy just to take a shower. I dread it. Does anyone else have this issue or is it just me? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
