Kathy in 2024

It just occurred to me that if Kathy had really blocked me, I wouldn’t have been able to send her the message asking if she was okay. Once someone blocks you on Facebook, you lose all ability to...

Bio - 26 in My Bio

During the twelve hours I spent in Florence jail, I was at least grateful I had quit smoking—I didn’t have to deal with craving a cigarette on top of the shock of learning the charges against me...

Survived Milton in 2024

We have survived! The old flagpole that was here when we moved in got knocked down, the car was pushed a few inches, and the AC broke—but we’re alive. Thankfully, the AC is under warranty, but w...

Bio - 25 in My Bio

We had barely been in the house a few days when a knock on the door jolted me from a sound sleep on the morning of January 5th, at 10:30 AM. I peered out the window and saw a cop standing at the...

Hurricane Milton and Research in 2024

I knew I shouldn’t have started allowing comments. I woke up to find TWENTY-THREE blank comments from a deleted user! Last night: Margaret emailed me about the last hurricane, and now she’s em...

Scared in 2024

Written last night: It’s late Sunday night, and I have a lot to write about. I better get started before I fall behind and forget things. I’m not posting this tonight, though. My sleep has been...

Ugh in 2024

Written yesterday: I have so much to say and so much on my mind, but I don’t know where to start. I’ll start by saying that I took Zyrtec last night, remembering how it helped me sleep longer, ...

It Was Real, I Just Know It in 2024

Me: This is going to be a bit hard to explain and definitely could be hard for you to understand but I want you to make your best guess as to whether or not I’m psychic or was just crazy. Okay...

Overwhelmed in 2024

Looking back on all my years dealing with doctors, so many of them have been utterly worthless in helping me. Rhonda is a classic reminder of this. I sent her a message last night asking if she ...

Recovering in 2024

Lying in bed, I’m starting this entry on my phone. I may or may not get it posted today, but I’ll work on talk-typing it little by little. I have a lot of writing to catch up on! No more methy...

Sick in 2024

Just an initial update that I started yesterday but was too out of it to share. There’s more to come but I may not get to it today. It’s been a scary and frustrating last couple of days. I was...

Goodbye Florida? in 2024

I’m going to work on this entry little by little because I’m just not feeling well. I still don’t know if I have COVID, a cold, or if my allergies and asthma have simply gone haywire. I still fe...

More Than No Big Deal in 2024

Thought I’d get some writing started as I lay in bed feeling shitty. I’m not just tired, but I feel like I either have severe allergies, a minor cold, or something worse. I hope it’s not COVID! ...

156 in 2024

Hurricane Helene has turned out to be no big deal even though they sent us evacuation notices. Doesn’t look like anyone else has evacuated either. We’ve got winds of about 45 miles an hour but h...

Wind and Rain in 2024

Hurricane Helene is going to miss us, but it’s going to dump a lot of wind and rain on us. We could get up to around 50 miles per hour winds. The shitty part is that while hurricanes rarely prod...

Hurricane Helene in 2024

Just a heads-up: Hurricane Helene is heading our way, so don’t panic if I’m quiet for a day or two. We’re on the edge of the cone, and while evacuations are possible, we’re staying put. Power ou...

Another Power Failure in 2024

A transformer blew somewhere in the neighborhood, so I guess I might as well take my iPhone and start tomorrow’s journal entry. I heard a slight bang right before the power cut out roughly an ho...

Bio - 24 in My Bio

The fact that a guy named Steven sold our house for a surprising $83,500—just shy of our asking price of $85,000—only two weeks after it hit the market raised a red flag in my mind and sent my b...

Feeling Down and Fatigued in 2024

I’ve been feeling a little down the last few days, but we think we know why. Yeah, I’m feeling kind of overwhelmed in general. There are a few reasons, and they’re kind of intertwined. My gluc...

105, Not Good in 2024

My glucose was 105 when I got up. Still pre-diabetic. I was hoping by now it’d be 95 or lower. I was looking at the weather for the next week, and I’m just like, why? Just why? Every fucking ti...

Garden Nut Update in 2024

It’s a good thing I didn’t have breathing issues in my sleep because I completely forgot to put in the nasal dilator last night. Today, I’m definitely feeling more energized, and I’m hoping to ...

Bio - 23 in My Bio

As much as I cherished my husband, it became evident that we were not entirely compatible in the bedroom. This realization weighed heavily on me, along with the fear of infertility. The thought ...

Bio - 22 in My Bio

By April 1993, after ten months at Vista Ventana, I had enough of the rude residents and management. It was time to move on. I did most of my moving late at night, always making sure to casually...


I need to clear my mind of the negative thoughts swirling around in it. Tom is napping—he’s always tired on donation days. Yesterday, I cried more than I had in months. I was suddenly overwhelm...

Tired in 2024

Another tired day, even though nothing woke me up. Tom reminded me about how sleep debt works, but I’m starting to worry that the burst of energy I had was just a fluke designed to tease me. I w...
