Sleep Study
So my doctor ordered a sleep study for me and I did that last night. It sucks ngl. I tend to take a while to fall asleep and so I need to freely shift around to stay comfortable, which is why I...
First week thoughts on Ozempic
Took my second dose on Saturday and did increase up from 0.2 to 0.3mg. I’m starting to follow the faster dosing schedule since, so far, the nausea and side effects have been pretty mild for me. ...
Small Talk
I don’t understand people who just spill their guts about their personal life to a stranger. I go to the auto parts store down the street to get a clay bar kit. Oh side note, the reason I did ...
Lawn Equipment
I forgot to mention I bought some new lawn equipment. Back when Jessica and I moved to Grapevine, it was the first house I’d ever lived in where I’d be responsible for lawncare. It was a really...
Lawn care
How tf do people deal with weeds? I tried weed and feed and that did nothing. So today I tried some weed killer spray and covered the entire lawn with it and… nothing. My lawn needs to be studie...
Mid Week Update
So the first ozempic dose has definitely worn off at this point. My appetite and everything feels completely normal. I’m still eating less than I used to be I don’t think I’m at the point where ...
First few days
Honestly the first injection was a cake-walk. I felt a little bit nauseous a few hours afterwards but they also sent some zofram and that cleared it right up. I wonder if feeling nauseous for li...
Semaglutides
So I went ahead and got a year supply of GLP1 ordered. It was crazy expensive but still way less than if I bought it name brand. I think it’s important I order it now considering how compounding...
Weight Loss
I’ve been trying to eat less than usual but still not on a strict diet or anything. I need to be but I didn’t feel like just going cold turkey quite yet. I wish I could get some semaglutides an...
Lawn Mower
I’ve had this same plug in mower for years and I swore that before my grass started growing again this year I’d replace it with a battery powered unit. Well my weeds are starting to grow so it’...
Segmented Sleep
Been going to bed around midnight and waking up at 4am every day. Then I’ll try to be productive, get tired around 2pm, and then go back to sleep until 6 or 7pm. Today I did wake up early aroun...
Hearing Aids (anotha one)
For the past month or so I’ve noticed something felt off about my hearing aids. I was needing to crank the gain on them pretty high for them to feel like they were doing anything. Slowly I notic...
Bathroom Smells
Man the house problems just never stop. Yesterday I got on the roof to investigate a nasty bathroom smell issue we’ve been having in our second bathroom. So something weird about this house is ...
New A/C
So we moved into this house last summer and the first thing we noticed was how poor the A/C was. On a hot day, the inside temp would creep up and up to 80F by about 4pm. Luckily I own a nice por...
Alopecia update
A while back I wrote about how Jessica was losing her hair. They still haven’t been able to diagnose her with anything but she’s on some fancy new medication to help with it. It’s so new that o...
Allergies
I’m not totally sure, but I’m wondering if I’m close to solving a big part of my tinnitus. So one of the things that makes my tinnitus worse is ear pressure. I frequently have pressure that jus...
TikTok Ban
Man it really sunk in recently how real this ban is. I know there is a little bit of hope for a few month delay either by Biden or Trump, but the reality is that the ban will still happen unles...
Truck Update
Okay, so I mentioned previously I’d update about the backup camera and the new screen on the truck infotainment. Backup Camera Well turns out that fuse kit didn’t have the fuse I needed. Even ...
Truck
Fair warning this one is a lot of car maintenance stuff so if that bores you just skip this one haha. So something I didn’t get to in my last entry was the truck. Jessica’s grandpa passed away...
A**hole
Well Christmas was kind of ruined by Jessica’s stepdad, big surprise. I don’t talk about that man very much, because I don’t really respect him. He’s lazy (he’s in his 70s now but he’s been thi...
Dad
My dad is losing his memory a little bit. My mom told me about it a few months back that he’s starting to be a little bit forgetful, but last night was the first time I noticed it in person. Th...
Alopecia
About 7 weeks back Jessica was noticing more hair on her brush than usual. I figured it was just the stress of losing the baby this summer finally getting to her hair, since hair is on a 3 month...
Car Sales
I’m selling my Mazda tomorrow. It’s actually really a sad moment for me. I bought that car brand new nearly 10 years ago. It got me through college, through my 4 years in Austin, back to Dallas...
Hearing Aids (the sequel)
I had my hearing aid appointment again. When she first fitted me with the new hearing aids, I won’t lie, I felt a little disappointed. They were a little bigger and the music streaming quality ...
Hearing Aids
I have hearing aids now. I’ve been battling tinnitus for about a year and I’m trying to be more proactive in figuring it out, because it’s one of the major reasons for my depression lately. I’v...
