I had a Doppler today and recorded a little heart beating. So my odd shape isn’t for no reason
I was going to complain that my feet were different temperatures because I had a cat on one foot but not the other (my feet are under the blanket). But I managed to wiggle my foot under the other cat so now both feet have tiny space heaters to keep them warm.
I managed to make myself my normal breakfast, in spite of my hands being numb. I also unloaded the dishwasher without dropping and breaking anything.
Reading all of these made me so happy and that is itself a Tony Victor \o/ Because happiness is always a victory worth celebrating
Bigger kid brought home an assignment to interview me about my opinions on voting and democracy. Of which I have many. The assignment asked for a paragraph and he is going back tomorrow with multiple pages. I enjoyed myself.
I made a to-do list for the studying I need to catch up on and the career thinking I want to do next. Then I ate apricot pie and watched garden shows and Queer Eye.
Partner and I had a really good discussion/conversation last night that lasted several hours and involved leftover champagne, and it was really really nice.
Therapy was helpful. She gave me praise for my homework. I get top marks in therapy!
Ponder and I chatted about my class, which was really him saying what I’d already thought - that I should drop out now, rather than try to push through, since I’m weeks behind and what I wanted to get out of the class was actually attending the classes, which hasn’t been possible. I don’t think I’ve decided to quit before it bit me in the ass before, so this is a Toni Victoria!
I got a haircut. I’m not phenomenal at cutting it myself but have been doing it for years to save money/because I’m scared of salon atmospheres.
Went to a femme barber and now I look very very nice and we discussed lower-cost upkeep strategies.
The skirt I made with a high-low hem by accident is extremely comfortable and the extra fabric at the back means I never feel like I’m showing my undies. Only issue to work out now is adding pockets without the contents dragging the skirt off me (elasticated waist).
I purchased pre-chopped vegetables because I lack the ability to chop veggies right now. I’m gonna eat me some tasty butternut pumpkin tomorrow!
I had a smoothie and potato chips for breakfast
My mom is coming this direction anyway so she is going to bring me my water bottle that I forgot last night (and I don’t have to go get it or live without it all day) AND waiting for her means I have an excuse not to go the the gym.
I have a new doctor. I’m just meeting with her right now but so far she appears to give a shit.
Bobbin took it upon herself to climb fully clothed into the shower with me this morning, so everyone got clean today. I’m calling it a win.
THIS IS HUGE.
Happy new family doctor day!!!
Doctor is sending me to a dietician and trying hard to find a way to get physiotherapy and medical devices covered by the provincial health care system. I don’t think it will be possible, but I appreciate the efforts.
There was free salad in the lunchroom today and it was actually good - real greens and vegetables, not just iceberg with croutons and a few sad carrot shreds. I ate 2 bowls of it.
