"beauty for ashes" |
] |
I've been eating a lot lately. Fruit or chocolate. whatever is there. It's made me gain about 3 pounds. I can sense when I lose weight.
I was just thinking of Sept 11th. Before it happened I sensed something big was going to happen. Sometimes I have thoughts that come true. One time, I just knew I'd get my pic taken on a bridge and that came true. My pic appeared in the newspaper. I took a pic of myself and saw my aura. It's gold colored. Not sure what that means. Just random odd things that happen to me.

Was up til midnight cleaning my bathroom. Still have the tub to clean. Put all my summer clothes into the tubs I bought. Still have to organize my closet. I have clothes and other junk mail and crap to go through.
I felt so grown up yesterday. I bought myself a small coffee maker. :)
I cant't believe it's November. Where did the time go??

I have way too many clothes. I seriously need to get my closet organized and seperate the summer and winter clothes. So, I'll need to get a few tubs from Wal-mart.
Supposed to be nice this week. 40's and 50's.
Rent due tomorrow and going to Midcontinent to pay that bill.
Started getting a panic attack about half way during my shift at the store. I managed to pull through and finished what I started. Delores was home sick. I won't be going to work on Wednesday. It's grocery group that day.
Just checked Oak Park theater's lineup. The 6th Harry Potter is playing. Hopefully, I'll get my mom to go with me. I'd like to see it.

There's a new resident at the TL. He's in his 50's I think. His name is Roger. Guess he needs help to feel better. That's what we're all there for. He took my previous room after they tucked me in a single room. And now Izzy shares a room with Mary. So many people come and go.
Darin showed up at community dinner. He moved with his family to CA, but came back because all his stuff is here. We reminisced about burger joints in CA: In and Out, Carl's Jr, and Jack in the box, I'd give anything to have a double double animal style right now. They're sooo good, everything is fresh.
I have to remember to eat lunch at noon or before. So I can my one med on an empty stomach.
I'm going to buy a coffee maker.

Been trying coffee to get me awake. I wake up and tire so easily these days. Unfortunately, the coffee doesn't help.
I don't want to volunteer anymore. But it gets me out of the house so I guess I'll stick with it. I plan on talking to Sue Robb in December and hopefully start working next year. A new year a new beginning. Just hope I can handle it.

We got our first snow fall the other night. Now everything is wet.
It's drizzling right now, a mix of snow and rain. Maybe the community dinner will be cancelled.

We got some snow but it wasn't much. On the news at noon, somebody sent in a pic of a tornado over a lake.
I don't know why I've been so tired lately. Maybe I'll start drinking coffee in the mornings.
Michelle brought a pair of pants. Mary tried them on, but they didn't fit her. Michelle offered it to me, it fit. :)

Did a good job at work. Delores was pleased. I went through a whole box to hang sweatshirts. And hung all the coats.
Found Grace Livingston Hill books that I haven't read yet. I paid 2.01 for them. I usually would get it free, she just gave me a deep discount. I'll take what I can get.
Told Delores I wouldn't be in on Wednesday. That's grocery group day.
So far no snow here, but a lot of drizzling rain.
My ride was early both times.
It feels like I had lab a long time ago when I had it this morning. Probably because I woke up at 7 am.

Woke up at 7 this morning. Actually drank some coffee to wake me up. I met with Connie this morning to pay rent. Then we went to Target, bought Madonna's new cd. Just walked around the mall. A lot of stores are hiring.
I got an email from my Voc Rehab person. There's a job at Goodwill parttime available. I emailed her back requesting info on the hours. It may be dooable. Or else I'll go through the workshop to start off. I think that's the better option. I'll be getting rides to and from work also. And they give us our meds when we need it.
Refrained from buying a book. My shelves are full. I have enough books to read. Still reading Greenwitch. I've been reading off and on. My concentration isn't what it used to be. I do word searches a lot which helps.
I met the lady that lives across the hall. She's nice. Her name is Cynthia. We met in the laundry room.
And the heat is on!
It's so gray and icky and rainy today.

Now I wonder if I'll be leaving the TL now that my things aren't there anymore. I just bring my overnight bag.
Today is community dinner. Vi will be picking me up if she remembers.
It's only 47 today. Broke out my winter jacket.
Meeting with Connie tomorrow morning to pay rent. and hopefully go to Target.

Met with Garnetta. We went to the TL to bring my stuff home. I didn't know I had so much crap. 3 full boxes of stuff. Laurie Bruce was there. They let me take the plastic bin my shoes were in. Now I have nothing there except I left my radio/alarm and my robe.
Now I have a bunch of crap to go through.

Theresa called me yesterday. We went out for dinner. It was good to get out. Ran into Garnetta and her significant other at the restaurant. I had a cheese quesadilla and chimmies. I ate so much I felt fat. Theresa had a chicken ceasar salad. I hope we go again. She's nice. She had a birthday but I forgot her age. She's an older lady.
Mom's relatives think I'm sick. She obviously told her relatives I have schizophrenia. I was worried she'd tell everyone. Mom told them I'm not sick. I just happen to have it, it doesn't define who I am. It's just a part of me.
Not sure if I'll do the Singing Christmas tree this year. It would be fun to do it again. My nerves just got to me last time. I'll see how I feel about it later.

I went to the TL on Wednesday night. I had just started taking a new med and wanted to be monitored while I start it. It helps me feel better.
There's a new resident at the TL. Her name is Israel, but we call her Izzy. She seems nice. Kinda quiet.
The TL packed up everything I had and moved me to a single room. All my stuff is in boxes. Garnetta and I are going to take them to my apartment when we meet. I guess I'll be leaving the TL soon?
The TL went to a pumpkin patch yesterday. Michelle dropped me off at the mall since the HC was closed. Found a white sweater and 2 tshirts, shorts, a cd, and another pinky ring.
The TL is going to Mandan/Bismarck tomorrow. Wish I could go.
Watched Survivor yesterday. The oil millionaire found the idol and hid it. that show is something else.
Found dvd's of Keeping Up Appearances at Barnes & Noble. I'm going to get dvd's of Dr. Who for my dad this Christmas.

Spent two hours with Garnetta. Bought Season 1 of Weeds and Season 3 of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
It's been a long day. I woke up at 7 to get ready for my 9 am appointment with Vicki. Told her I feel alot better and want to get a job soon. I'd like to start in January. I'm meeting with the workshop lady in December.
My meds are changing. Taking me off Epivir and Hepsera and putting me on another one. I just found out today the doctor wanted to change my meds. I saw him last week. He said we'd keep it as it is, but now he wants to change it. I might call and just ask why it's changing. I got the meds today. Talked to the pharmacist. It's not going to affect my other meds. It's a brand new drug so there weren't patients' info. She copied out the info in her prescription book. I don't like messing with my meds. I never know how I'm going to react.
Lost my pinky ring.

Your Name is Black
|
Your name tells people that you are serious and sophisticated. Your name makes you seem like a total mystery.
You are elegant and a bit apart from everyone else. You are much more formal than those around you.
People see you as smart and together. You also come off as a bit eccentric, and others respect that you are different from them.
You can adapt well to most situations, but you never feel like you truly fit in anywhere.

The Emmy's were fun to watch last night.
I feel ready for a job. I'll talk to Sue Robb in December.
I'm not going in today. The Souris Basin people didn't have me on their schedule, so I lost my ride for today.
Have It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia to watch. My brother lent it to me.
Anyway, I have a free day.
It's raining today. I walked through the drizzle. Hope it's not coming down yet. I better jet back while I can.

I walked to my folks house. On the way I stopped at B&D for water and went to a garage just on the next block.
Found a leather jacket for 3 dollars and a blue winter vest for 1 dollar. Wish I had a car to go around in.
Reading The Green witch by Susan Cooper. The third in the series.
Found my earrings. I thought I lost them. One came off while I slept. Mom found the back part on the floor. I had found the earring in bed. That was last weekend.
Mmm. Mom's making potato salad. We're having burgers.
