Argh!

Wish my final entry could be a good one, but I’m afraid it’s not. Yeah, you guessed it—another night of absolutely horrible sleep. My nose is having another bad spell, so I’m snoring and woke up...

I Hate Titles

Another night of sleeping shitty, but I’m up now and having a second cup of coffee. Looking forward to 2025 as it gets closer and hoping it’s better—the year I finally get rid of this fatigue, o...

Tummy Issues

After I scold Jessie (not directly) in my mind or journal for not checking in more often, I end up feeling bad—especially since there usually seems to be a reason why, or so she says. Anyway, we...

No Comments, No Trolls/Spam

As one troll who I blocked said in regards to the entry below, we supposedly expect to get a reply to our messages instantaneously or some shit like that. Why does everyone assume something has ...

Shitty Dreams

Decided to take clonazepam last night because I was having trouble falling asleep. Woke up feeling a little hungover. The night was full of nightmares, although not the kind I need to worry abou...

Just Another Day

Wish I had something interesting to say, but yesterday was like any other day. The main highlight of my life is what it has been for a while now, and that’s fatigue—along with the stress, of cou...

Spots

Slept reasonably well, even though I didn’t wake up feeling very refreshed. I still do have sleep apnea, after all. Dear Tom was kind enough to clean our small fans yesterday. We have ceiling f...

Second Spot

Yay, I have a little more energy today! I still woke up a million times—once due to struggling to breathe out of my nose and finding one side completely blocked—but I was able to fall back aslee...

Sleep, Nose, Lungs, Meds

Ugh, woke up a dozen times or more. I snored 3 or 4 times and seem to be bouncing back and forth between parents and termites in dreams. Last night, I was staying at a hotel with my parents and ...

Here We Go Again

And we’re back to the breathing issues and broken-up sleep. ☹ Knew I would be sooner or later. Yesterday, I noticed my nose was getting stuffy again, and I woke up struggling to breathe through ...


I read an article written by someone who lived in the US and Italy comparing the two cultures. One of the things they pointed out was how Americans tend to hold grudges, whereas in Italy, someon...

75K Words

I finished my VR challenge ride last night. It was a 24-mile ride through southern New York. It was very lush and green for the most part. I’ll be back in Lithuania tonight, continuing my way do...

Fucking Politicians

I went to create another profile on Facebook, but it said I can’t have more than two additional profiles. That’s interesting because I only have one additional profile right now, and it certainl...

Writing and Coloring

My Home Sweet Home coloring book came today, and I’ve definitely been on a coloring spree. There are 31 illustrations and got most of one picture done already. The drawings are very homey, with ...

I'm Back...I Think

I wasn’t keen on the idea of doing daily updates on a site that still has technical issues, but I kind of miss it and the interesting comments I get at times. Do keep in mind that this is my jou...

Goodies

Looking forward to my new Home Sweet Home adult coloring book that’s coming tomorrow. It’s not numbered, but it’s always been appealing to me for some reason. For just $2.50, I got a cute throw...

Repotted

I repotted my five succulent plants all by myself. It was pretty simple since they’re so small. I moved them out of their 2-inch starter pots and into 4-inch pots. Each one is a different color:...

Arrested

So this woman was arrested for threatening yet another insurance company that overrode doctors’ orders and declined to pay for the health care she needed, whatever that was. Ridiculous. Just fuc...

CEO

Tom’s out getting his flu and COVID shots, and I’m going to take my chances this year. I’m not out enough and exposed to enough people to be worried about it. Then again, I did catch the norovir...

Better

Another day of feeling better—good sleep truly makes a difference. Rhonda and Clonazepam are wonderful, too, lol. However, the clonazepam leaves me feeling slightly hungover during the first few...

Deep Cleaning and Chinese Food

I slept a whopping 10 hours! Ten hours! Just like the day before, I had energy for hours but lost it way too soon. Tom says it’s just going to take time to recover. Hopefully, he’s right. I stil...

Rhonda

I saw Rhonda yesterday and felt really awful when I first got there. I was horribly exhausted and anxious, but it wasn’t the anxiety I get from the medication if I’m not careful. It was just bei...

Off the Charts

My fatigue has been off the charts, and I’m feeling more hopeless than ever. Maybe when I see Rhonda in a few hours, I can get some answers, but I’m not holding my breath. I hate how much longer...

154 lbs

I hit a new low of 154.1 lbs and the plants are adorable and look healthy! I might finally be getting better!!! Huge relief after having such a rough 8 or 9 days! Just a little short of breath ...

Still Struggling

I’m still struggling with constant sleep disturbances and overwhelming fatigue. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll even have the strength to walk into Rhonda’s office on Monday and the dentist’s office ...
