Goodbye March....

 


Goodbye March, you were a rough month.  There was a lot to do, not so great weather, things got bothersome with repairs & overall you were tiring.  Tomorrow's the beginning of April & looks like it'll start cold & stormy.  I didn't need that.  

I was hoping the month would end quietly.  That didn't happen  I woke to a lot of noise from big trucks hauling off some brush.  Other than that, today will be a typical Monday.  It'd be nice if there weren't any hiccups.

Take care.

Meh Sunday Morning...

 

It's hazy this morning after storming last night.  For all the noise, it didn't rain much.  It's looking like we'll a little short on rainfall for the month.   The beginning of April will probably be as dark & wet.  That'll be great, start the 1st of the month stuff in the rain.  

I'm still a little wrecked from the last few days.  Yesterday could've been better, if not for the jolty wake up.  It'd been nice if this month ended better, but that won't happen.  

Take care.

Bad Morning...

 

I had a bad wake up this morning.  It was dark & humid.  I did jolt awake & then just sat there sort of vibrating trying to figure out everything.  SAD is still playing out for me & the stress of the month has taken its toll.  

I was anxious about everything;  the house, the car, my roomie, the mailbox, the cats, etc...  The problem is not all of is without cause.   When this happens, I can't get myself to let go & just breathe for a moment.  

I haven't had that many of these wakeups this year, but any is too much.  They're exhausting & consuming.   Too bad, the rest of the month & the beginning of April look to be some dark BS. 

My blood pressure's a little low this morning & I'm dehydrated.  I'll start feeling better in a bit.  Even so, this sucks & everything I'm worrying about could be a problem.  I don't know & I'm all out of energy & tricks.

Mornings suck, especially when they're dark.

So Much For Nothing...

 

So much for my do nothing day.  The jackass post office sent a direct missive to our house.  Because we're both on disability, we had a mailbox attached to the house, like people used to.  A couple of years back they made us go through hoops to keep it.  

The new form didn't even have a place for input from a medical professional.  The form was very brief.  Apparently only a near dead person living by themselves can qualify for such a privilege as having an attached mailbox instead of something by the street.  Anybody meeting their requirements would most likely be in an assisted living situation.  The USPS is cheap, lazy & a word I don't use often, ableist. 

We didn't feel like we had a choice & put up a box by the street.   The Youtube videos made it look easy, it wasn't.  The ground here is rocky & it's been really dry.  So driving something into it took a lot of effort & wore me out.  I had to take several breaks.  The box didn't have holes for the screws only dimples where they should go.  It wasn't an easy process & it was exhausting.  My hands have a lot of little cuts, my body is sore & pounding the ground set off a lot debris that killed my sinuses. 

The damn thing is up & now it's raining.  Maybe that will help it set in some.  It looks OK & I hope it lasts.  If it doesn't, there's a screw into the ground anchor we'll try.  May every single person who had part in this decision to make my life harder due to this just rot.  And, I hope it's terrible & horrifying.  Cheap ass bastards.

That's it for now.  Take care.  Screw the USPS.

Nothing Thursday...

 

There isn't much going on this morning & that's actually good for me.  We've been rushed & stressed most of the month.  Both of us needed a down day.  There wasn't much in the way of articles except for the disgrace of the orange stain.

That's it for now, take care.

Last March Wednesday...

 

This won't be much of a post of this last Wednesday.  Monday was loaded after an early start.  I was on hold 90+ minutes Tuesday for benefit renewal & then there was another appointment.  This morning my PC was glitchy.  I think I've got it fixed.   All of March has been hectic, trying & full of crap.  I'm tired & the day's not even started.

OK March, take your business & odd weather out the door.   That's all.  Take care.

Phone Hold...

 

It's benefit renewal time & I did the application last night online.  The I got a text, apparently I've been selected for a phone interview.  I called & the wait time is at least 20+ minutes.  So, I'm listening to annoying muzak.   I guess most on-hold music is fairly annoying when you're just trying to get something done.

I'll do this & get cleaned up.  We have to run my roomie back for a follow up appointment.  There will be a few of these.   This won't be the easiest process.

That's all for now, take care.
