never forget
  • Ian is still in NZ
  • I went to the doctor for my stomach which hurts like a bitch and keeps me up at night and wakes me up when I do sleep, they said they would get the test results to me today and that just didn’t happen. They weren’t sure there was anything they could do anyway. They couldn’t test my thyroid (I’m hyperthyroid untreated which might be the issue), and I also have high blood pressure. I have another appointment with my primary in a little over four weeks but not really too hopeful. They were nice, it was my fault really for burdening them with something that wasn’t an emergency walk-in situation. They said they get a lot of that because doctors can’t see people, and they end up there or in the ER.
  • I’m still on the crazy diet – but now I’m avoiding anything spicy and sugar. I’m addicted to coffee full stop — I know, I know I shouldn’t be but fuck.
  • Zantac and Tums really do a number on me. Zantac gives me headaches and tums makes my joints hurt. My stomach is really screwed up. I also have a toothache, but it’s not so bad … yet.
  • JJ Came over a few days to watch movies and I even watched a couple! I watched Hitman: Jun and Velocipastor
  • Return of the drugglers – next door but they left again, but last night they came in around 1am and parked on my fence line. I went and turned on the lights so they know, I know. I think it’s the guy that owns Hannibal the Pitbull. He’s a super-creep.
  • I went and picked blueberries this week, but the season got away from me and there were no berries. Anytime I go places now I just pack a bento. I’m thinking of buying bento accessories and making them super cute. Then if I eat plain sad little things – at least they look nice right?
  • I have a lot of sugar cravings (!!) I don’t want to fail this time. I have so much I want to do in life.
  • Son had a medical thing going on while in NZ that could be serious, but it’s almost impossible to be seen properly here. I got him an appointment with a regular doctor in March 2025 that is literally six months away. They wanted all his medical records from everywhere – I’m like, he’s 24 and healthy, he has no medical records. But this thing could be serious, so I’ll take him over there sooner to the walk in and see what that doctor thinks I guess. Idk – I’ll try, it’s difficult.
  • On Balatro I beat three challenges this week, Medusa, Double or Nothing, and Brom Joker
  • I posted a comment this week and a famous person read it and I felt all special, lol

In Photos this week…

New Zealand rainbow – maybe Isengarde in the distance. From son.
