The 9th of May. Stupid eyes today. Not sleepy, but painful. I have a review at the eye clinic coming up next week so I'll bring it up then but ugh. It is just so frustrating when it seemed to be getting better.
This morning, I wrote up a blog post, and tried on some dresses I've ordered for John and Maddie's wedding. I've got to find something that will accommodate or disguise my arm because I can't wear what I originally planned to. One of the three is okay, I think. I need to look at it again before I send the other two back.
This afternoon, I've been sitting with Sam and I watched the last two episodes of 13 Reasons Why. Shit, I can see why it has caused quite so much controversy - watching Hannah slit her wrists is really horrific and I found myself holding on to the cat quite tightly to cope. I related to the moment before she got in the bath, when she looked in the mirror. Like she was saying goodbye. I feel like I've got to that place before, but I have always turned back. I have never really needed to die, I have just wanted whatever was so bad to be over, and I hoped that life would be better afterwards. I always have hope. Which I suppose it's part of what keeps me here.
The 10th of May.
I have felt like total crap all day. It began with a pretty terrible sleep, because I had to sleep in Christine's bed last night. Yesterday morning I spilled orange juice on my carpet, and the carpet cleaner smelled so strong, I couldn't sleep in there and comfortably breathe.
This morning I had a chiro appointment, and it was all a struggle. I got myself into Trine's room and she found that the muscles in the left side of my back were very stringy. I don't really know what that means but it wasn't very pleasant, having them made un-stringy. It is probably from sitting in my wheelchair all weekend at Mach.
I was supposed to be at the dentist and hygienist this afternoon but I could barely breathe just sitting up, so doing it with lots of instruments in my mouth was not going to happen. Cancelled that.
So, I had my lunch, watched new Pretty Little Liars and iZombie, then curled up on the sofa to have a rest/nap. I put on a Gardeners' Question Time and closed my eyes (which have been hurting too) and I think I did occasionally nod off. I certainly remember jerking awake. Not really sure what that means for me as I can only sleep in the day when I'm poorly, so I'm really hoping it was just because I'm knackered.
