This is pretty hard, trying to type. I have to try and use a different finger to type my e's, c's, and d's. I was trimming the back of my hair last night with a hair razor, and decided to slice the tip of my middle finger of my left hand, pretty good.
Last week, our power was out 3 times in 24 hours, once a couple hours at night, not too long, but long enough to have to get ice for the freezer, and Adia was sweating so bad while she was sleeping, her head was soaked. The nexr day, when I got back from seeing Dr. Franzetti, Naomi said it had been out again, but not for long, so it didn't get too hot in the house. Later, that day, she took Adia half a mile down the street to Denny's. While they were gone, it went out again. It was 2 in the afternoon, and it was one of the 116 days. I had to leave for Walmart, and I called to see how long it would be out, cuz there was no way her and Adia could stay in the house. They said 3-4 HOURS! I didn't know how to get hold of them to tell them not to come home and to go somewhere cool. But while I was at the bus stop, it dawned on me that they would probably getting off the same bus I'd be getting on. Sure enough, they were coming out the door, and I turned them around and wouldn't let them off. Adia was screaming, cuz just from standing in the shade for 20 minutes, waiting for the bus, she had started getting heat stroke. She kept crying to go home, and we couldn't make her understand that there was no a/c. You couldn't touch her head and neck or she'd start screaming again, and she ended up throwing up on the bus. The driver was so nice. She actually stopped the bus and gave the trash bucket and a bunch of paper towels to Naomi. Then when we got to the intersection where our other bus was coming, she pulled over where there wasn't a bus stop and honked so it would wait, so we wouldn't have to wait for another half hour in the heat. We were able to get to Walmart, so Adia could cool down, and we got her some children's meltable Tylenol. By the time we got done and went to the mall, she was able to play in the kids' play area and made a little friend, like nothing had ever happened. It got kinda old hanging around the mall, so I called Don, and he said the electricity was already back on when he got home from work.
Then last night, the power went out AGAIN! I called Kara, Don's friend (he was over there, visiting), to see if hers was out, and it wasn't. Just ours was. I called APS to see what was going on, cuz I had just paid 123 bucks, the day before, so they shouldn't have turned it off. She couldn't understand it. Finally, she told Don to go out and check the outside breaker box. Apparently, some smart *bleep* had flipped our switch.
I decided to tell Dr. Franzetti I wanted to go back onto Wellbutrin and Celexa together, cuz that combination had worked for me before. The 75 mg. Effexor just isn't doing it for me anymore. He didn't have a problem with that. In fact he seemed happy about it for some reason. So now I'm weaning off the Effexor-verrrrrrrrrry sloooooooowly. I only had two left and I had thought I had one refill left. But on the way to the pharmacy, I started thinking that I had already used my last refill, and I started freaking out. When I got there, I told the pharmacy guy, "PLEASE tell me I still have one refill left." He went back and came back with a bag. That was such a relief!
