► My recent difficulty sleeping has been worsening all week. Each day I've had to manage with just a couple of hours of restless sleep, and I think it's triggered a return of my vertigo from earlier this year. Yesterday I feed the cat an hour early at 3:00pm and then went to bed, shutting my door. I somehow managed to fall asleep and slept ( Read more... )

► I'm getting closer and closer to my therapist appointment on Thursday, April 5th, and it's starting to work my nerves a bit. Since this will be the first time I've had to leave the apartment in almost two months ( outside of my hospital visit a few weeks ago), I'm really anxious about it.

In the auctions he had around a dozen that ( Read more... )

► Talked with my sister and she will be picking up my comics, groceries and other stuff today and tomorrow. So I guess I should be able to finally relax and stop worrying about having to go out now.

Also, I finally called the landlord this afternoon to ask for a rent receipt for my tax return. I've only put it off for a week.

► Yesterday we had the first snow of the season. It wasn't light flurries, but a rather a heavy snowfall that blanketed everything outside in half a foot of cold cotton, snowing from early in the morning until late at night. Actually, the visibility outside was almost nil all morning long as there was also a heavy fog. I found it quite ( Read more... )
