Got a lot to catch up on that’s been going on over the weekend
and most of it is good. That’s because it involves shopping, LOL. But it’s even
better in that I haven’t had any anxiety over the weekend as well. Hoping it
lasts but knowing it won’t. :( I’m sure tomorrow I’ll have my usual Monday
morning anxiety as he heads off to work for the week.
It was very discouraging to read that you can have menopausal
symptoms for 4-5 years after you’ve gone a year without a period. To think that
I might have another half a decade of suffering from anxiety on and off makes
me want to scream!
I’ve been a little more lightheaded since stopping the Amberen
but as long as I stay calm I don’t want to return to the Amberen just in case
it may have had a hand in my anxiety even though I don’t think it did. Better
to be lightheaded than anxious.
He just left and I’m fine with it because he’s only going to
pick up his blood pressure medication.
We discussed the insurance plan we’re going to switch to. It has
the potential to save us money in the end, but we don’t know for sure yet.
After doing the math he realized it would cost the same for us
to drop our eye insurance and just pay for it ourselves rather than have them
deduct a little for that from his pay. This way we can go when we want and get
new frames every year for variety. Before it was every other year that we could
get new frames.
Yesterday we went to Sam’s Club and got some bulk items. One of
the things I got was this colorful display of 12 different mini boxes of cocoa
with two large sturdy white mugs with embossed snowflakes. The flavors are
toffee, creme brulee, toasted marshmallow, chocolate truffle, candy cane,
eggnog, caramel cream, cookies and cream, tiramisu, double chocolate, dark
chocolate gingerbread, and sugar cookie.
At Sam’s, I got these awesome crab rangoons. I shouldn’t be
having anything with cholesterol but it’s not that bad.
I also got several goodies coming today in the mail, including a
few yoga figurines and a bronze ballerina.
He decided to order a smart thermostat which should be way cool,
pardon the pun. Definitely like having a smart home! There are still a few
things we could afford to “smarten” up, though, like the bedroom fan and air
cleaner. The laundry room light, too.
Fucking Mojave disabled my hotkeys when I upgraded and so we
thought something was wrong with them at first.
I’ve been paranoid about flossing my teeth after pulling off one
of my crowns so I got my Waterpik set up again and I’m using that instead. It
may not be as thorough as regular flossing since it doesn’t hit the contact
areas but it’s better than nothing.
Yesterday we tightened my progressives at the hinge and also
used the steamer to warm up the arms and bend them inward a bit. The lenses are
still too tall but they are good for seeing long distances. Just not as good for
reading and doing things close up but I have single-vision lenses on the way
for that.
What else did we do yesterday? Oh, we shined up some crystals
and our wedding bands in the ultrasonic cleaner. He cleaned his electric razor
as well.
This morning we went to Walmart, grabbed a few groceries, and he
replaced his broken shoelaces. They’re a little short so he’ll have to order a
longer pair online.
I also got a horribly uncomfortable but awesome pair of Shoe
Beatz for just five bucks. They’re silvery metallic high-tops with a built-in
Bluetooth speaker. I paired it with my phone so I can play music through them.
They’re just not very comfortable and I don’t like the bright blinking light
either.
Even though we don’t really need a funnel I got a clear funnel
with gold glitter in it that looks cool. I’m sure I’ll have a use for it at
some point, though, and definitely the utility catcher we also got. Many times
I’ll have a dirty utensil I don’t want to place right on the counter and wish I
had one of these. I’m not sure of the proper name for it but it’s decorated
with colorful dots and definitely something we could use.
