Done & Tired...

 

It's handled, the new furniture is in & the old is out.  My meds also came in.  A lot went into getting the old stuff out & the place ready for the new.  There was a lot of dust under those pieces.  I hadn't felt like moving everything in a quite a while.  

Unfortunately, the new pieces aren lower end (Ashley Benchcraft) & offgassed VOCs.  It'll get better, but this has been rough.  Eye, nose, and throat irritation, headaches, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, and allergic reactions are all common reactions to VOCs.  They can be worse for some people or with long exposure.  Other than being dizzy, I got most of those last night.  The smell will dissipate, hopefully quickly.

After dealing with the furniture, errands & getting my meds, I was wiped.  I spent most of the evening feeling like crap.  But things are handled & the smell will go away eventually.   So good for us, we have new furniture.  BTW this stuff sits high.  Any short people may have to hop onto it.

That's all for now, take care.

Busy Tuesday...

 

It won't be much of a post this morning.  It's going to be an oddly busy Tuesday for me.  I had to call to check on my furniture delivery & my med order from Walmart.  The furniture is supposed to be here around 2.  Walmart's automated pharmacy system leaves something to be desired.  If they get my med in their daily shipment, it should be ready late this afternoon.  If not, we'll see. 

I'm trying to get through as much this morning as I can.  I still have to get a shower soon.  Of course on top of all this, my phone had to update & delay things.  Here's hoping this goes well.  I don't need drama.

That's all for now, take care.

Freezing & Rescheduled...

 

Yesterday's forecast was wrong.  It did not get above freezing.  The faucets have been dripping for days & I hate the noise.  It's better than busted pipes, but the noise is annoying.  It's supposed to snow tomorrow & into Friday morning.  Here's hoping we don't get what's in the forecast.  That could be a lot.

We did stuff we'd normally do today, yesterday.  We'll handle Friday's shopping today.  The only normal thing we'll do today is take the trash out & check mail.

We stopped by the furniture place yesterday & ordered a mattress.  I delayed the delivery of the other furniture.  It'll all come at the same time, around the 23rd.

We left the front stove on last night & I have regrets.  It's loud & kept waking me.  Heaters get to me after a while.  I woke with a bit of sore throat & stuffy nose.  The choice, do you want to be warm or do you want breathe?

That's all for now, take care.

Grey & Looking...

 

It's grey out this morning & cold.  We barely got above freezing yesterday.  It should last longer today.  We're supposed to get snow this week.  After Friday the temps will have the faucets dripping over night, but not all day as well.

We've not had the best luck with shopping lately.  Both my roomie's & mine med orders were messed up.  They got fixed, but it wasn't fun.  I'm waiting on my furniture order.  Looks like I'm going to need a new mattress as well, mine is really old.   Who knows how long this will take.

I guess that's about it.  We have to figure out the plans for the week.  Hopefully this won't get bad.  We don't need that.

Take care.

Yesterday...

 


Yesterday didn't go as planned.  The pharmacy didn't get my meds in so we didn't go there.  Hopefully, they're in today.  We did get the sofa & chair ordered. We got a reasonable price buy.  I just hope they're decent pieces.  The only place with furniture in stock around here is very expensive.  They won't get delivered for up to 2 weeks out.  

OK, we did it.  We bought furniture.  Something we've been knocking around for quite a bit.  Here's hoping it goes well. 

That's all for me today.  Take care.

Bigger Shopping...

 

It was bright for a bit when I woke this morning & then it turned hazy.   Thanks for the blip of sunshine.  This is making very difficult to ever wake up.

We're going to look at furniture today.  The couch has needed replaced for a while.  I just haven't felt up to it.  We'll  also be looking for a chair.  We haven't purchased any furniture in a while.  I always dread buyer's remorse, but the sofa needs to go.

That's it for today.  take care.

So Very Not Good...

 

It's very dark this morning & I'm not doing well.  I woke more nerved out than I have been in a while.  Everything keeps making demands, breaking, needing & I just can't.  There's been so much going on & so little getting resolved.  I really hate waking up.  It means there's probably something waiting for me.  It's almost always dark.  There are car troubles, furniture issues, phones, health, mailboxes & the list goes on.  I used to think I could handle a couple of them at a time.  Now I'm not so sure, especially when they all happen at once.  Does anything good ever come from waking up?  I'm tired, broken & it seems some of my pieces are missing.
