Mondays are still never dull

My hubby has been sick for a week. He finally went to the doctor this morning. A nasty sinus infection. So he is on the couch in the living room on antibotics and allergy medicine--all prescribed. He is loopy and sleepy. So there was no grass cutting. He is allergic to fresh cut grass.

So I am on a mission to find juice and soup plus find out if Earth, Wind and Fire has another concert in the area soon. My mom has caught the concert bug. This is shaping up to be a busy week. I am embracing life as a freelancer. I had the last of the fish sticks and mac and cheese for lunch. Brought a real nice cookbook for a $1 at a local consignment shop. Plus the owner is interested in any baby stuff or clothing I have. He said strollers, potty chairs and seats go quick at his story. I'll have to check around the house and at my in-laws.

My ED has been acting up today with the whisperings. Yesterday, I ate a lot of junk and some nutritious stuff. I know my ED would love for me to skip eating today but I am not giving it the satisfaction. Yesterday, I had a great day. And today, it is pretty decent except for the snake and not being able to cut grass. I have been working on a letter to my Ed for my therapist. I'll probably share it soon.

    Oh, yes, the ED can whisper those sweet nothings like nobody else, huh? It's hard to resist, but I think the whispers get quieter and quieter if you do...I'd love to read your letter to your ED!

    Hi Silly Girl,

    I'm just dropping in to say "Hi" and see how you're doing.

    Like Kim said, I would also love to read your letter to your ED.

    Have a great week. I'll see you again soon.

    Sorry about those annoying whispers... but you are strong enough to not give in to them.

    I think everyone has something whispering at them - I know I sure do, tho its not ED. Staying focused and busy thinking present moment stuff helps me - tho Godonlyknows the focus part is a struggle in itself!

BOOK REVIEW: The Other Emily by Dean Koontz

-
Image
  It is hard to write about "The Other Emily" by Dean Koontz. It is not because it is a bad book. I was pretty pleased with and enjoyed it. But how do you write about a book without giving away key plot points? The synopsis is simple. Emily Carlino vanished 10 years ago after her car broke down on a California highway. She was presumed to be one of serial killer Ronny Lee Jessup’s victims. Her remains were never found. Emily was the love of writer David Thorne’s life. He hasn’t recovered from losing her or from the guilt of not being there to save her. Since then,   Thorne has sought closure any way he can. He visits with Jessup regularly in prison, desperate for answers about Emily’s final hours so he may finally lay her body to rest. Then Thorne meets Maddison Sutton. Everything about Maddison from her face to her kisses is just like Emily.   Is she Emily? Or an irresistible dead ringer? Either way, the ultimate question is the same: What game is she playing? What

COVID is the worst

-
It has been almost two weeks since my son was diagnosed with COVID-19. COVID is the worst because there are very few ways to treat it. And you can't be near your loved one. So I am calling a few times a day and praying. I visited him on Saturday. He stood at his window and waved at me standing outside of it.   There are 608,946 people in South Carolina who have or had COVID. My son is one of those people.  He isn't just a number. He is a 15-year-old wise-ass who loves to play video games, read anime, and sing. He is not sure what he wants to do with his life but I want him to be able to have a life.

Stopping a downward spiral

-
In the past, my birthday has always been a trigger for me to relapse or get anxious. But for the past two years, my birthday has been my birthday. A day to celebrate my birth.  Around Thanksgiving, I started feeling different. December was just a month of misery. I now realize that my meds had stopped working. So here I stand at a crossroad--I can increase the dosage and continue on my merry way or not. Remeron not only stabilizes my mood but gives me an appetite.  I haven't had one since Thanksgiving. I eat based on time. If it is 7:15 a.m., it is breakfast. By noon, I must eat lunch and dinner between 6 and 7 p.m. If I increased the dosage, the appetite comes back for awhile  but I will gain more weight. This is why I was taking Seroquel to help with anxiety.  I don't think there is a enough Seroquel in the world to deal with my anxiety. And while my therapist is being helpful, he admitted this is beyond him. So we are looking for a therapist outside of the area who can he
