STILL sick today. I used to have an amazing immune system. But i've slacked off on my tea drinking and vitamin taking and exercising. I SOOOO need to get back into a good routine. Hell, i've even slacked on my medications which isn't good either. (My scrip ran out on my tumor meds- i've been out for 2 weeks. And my scrip is also out on my thyroid meds. 2 meds I really need, and don't have refills on. Guess I need to fix that?)
I also need to get down to Harper Hospital in Detroit to get some blood work done so my doctor has it for my appt. this Thursday. But I don't want to go today and I dont have time tomorrow.
Oh, and school. First Chem test I bombed, but I got the same score as the 'class average' so at least I'm the same as the rest of the class. I have my first Bio test coming up next week sometime and theres SO MUCH stuff to know I don't know what or how to focus my studies. I hope he gives us a study guide or some hints on what to focus on. Today I just felt really really odd and 'off'. I don't feel much confidence in my schooling. And these are 'beginner' classes. I mean.....WTF. Come on, Jon. Get with it. I'm guessing its because i'm sick and all around down. And not taking my meds properly isn't helping things.
So, here and now I'm making a game plan to at least start to turn things around. I will:
-Take my meds as scheduled, daily.
-Drink tea daily (at least once, if not much much more)
-Take a multivitamin, B Complex pill, 6 of my super EPA/DHA fish oil pills, and 1 5htp pill - ALL DAILY!
-I'd put in some sort of exercise game plan but......I want to get the above 3 things down into a pattern first to lay some ground work.
-TODAY I will go phone in my updated insurance info to my psych. doc so I can stop getting giant bills. I keep putting it off for NO reason.
OK. Thats a good list. Now once I post this, i'm going to go downstairs, pour all my pills out and take them, and then i'll put a cup of tea in the microwave while i'm calling the billing department of my doc. And that'll mean that TODAY i'll already have started my work and finished day 1, and it'll only have taken me a few minutes of my time!!!
Maybe i'll even drive downtown for my bloodwork like I know I have to.
Tick tock tick tock. Time to get the ball rolling and get back on my feet!

I know those ever familiar feelings. Turns out I am not sick....or at least I don't think. It is much different....I took my meds last night....I had been off for long enough to get sick again. I figured otu what it was when I stopped and had only one glass of baileys and started to feel better......it was anxiety....turns otu I had been having about a day and a half worth of an anxiety attack. Yuck....anyhow...I have class tonight. Wanna hang out tonight or tomorrow? I am glad you are feeling better! We both need to start drinking more tea though....especially since we areboth in school now...and I work in one....GERM CITY.....Miss ya...PS if you ever get bored you can make a facebook.
