So today is my last day of teaching for 2 weeks. I got this. Just got to get through my insanely naughty 702 class.

I submitted my request for a scholarship to the NAMI 3 day NY state Edcon meeting in November. Last year it was a lot of fun. Hopefully I get to go again this year. A room isn’t included this time so I’ll have to uber there and back those three days.

@Blueberrybook continuing to pray for your grandmother and for your family. Is the hospital she's in near you?

The hospital is about 1.5 hr drive away. Due to my driving anxiety, I can't drive there; I'd need H to drive. I'm hoping if they actually DO the procedure for the stones, it will help. I looked it up and one of the consequences of untreated pancreatitis is organ failure, and it seems to me they have just been twiddling their thumbs at that hospital, doing pretty much NOTHING to help her main problem other than pain medicine that only helps a little.

I slept really well last night. Tame dreams for me. It really is much better this was. I’m back on my high dose of ambien but off the sequel. So far there’s no problem. My pdocs suggested change was much better than what I tried to do. So note to self, contact pdoc before switching around meds!!

Blueberry hope your grandma feels better after the procedure. I think it’s terrible they made her wait so long.

Hitch, two weeks off, hip hip hurrah!

I’m trying to unsuccessfully pair my new cpap machine with my phone but I can’t because blue tooth isn’t finding the machine. My sleep specialist needs a report in 3 weeks time. This is really frustrating me.

Don’t ask me hitch! Ai can’t even find me! I put my name in Anne asked how many people in the world shared my name. It said 50-100 and none in my state. Most live in England, New Zealand and Australia. But it admitted to only looking on linkin and social networks. I’m so tech impaired I’m not even counted! But I bet lady shadow might have some tricks.

I think I might have to turn down the scholarship if I receive it. Looking at it more logistically transportation with uber rides there and back for 3 days would cost roughly $400. I I could theoretically make it work but I am not about to spent $400 on uber rides

Oof, $400! Is there any way you can hitch a ride with someone else near you that was going? You could offer $50 for gas?

I can look into that. If I get it there’s a lady who works at our local NAMI chapter that usually goes. Last year she offered me a ride because she was going too but my case manager wanted to take me and show me around a bit

I had therapy today, will have it tomorrow too. We talked about squishy therapists and how I don't want one. He gave me the conversation about safety and how their number one job is safety. That he'll see if I can get a non squishy therapist. We talked about my current safety concerns and I told him if motivation wasn't n issue I'd be in the hospital. He reminded me of crisis service. And told me to go straight to the hospital if I develop motivation. He I told him how much we spent and it was supposed to be for food for the next 6 months. He wants to set me up with a caseworker. I told him I don't really care right now and I may not care when the fridge is empty either. He told me they would call 3x to make contact and if I could try to pick up one of those he'd appreciate it. If not it's okay. I'm down to not having the energy to pick up the phone. Great.

Oh, geez! My daughter got into a fender bender not far from home! The entire front bumper is off the car. I don't know if the mechanic can fix it or not. We're just waiting to talk to H, decide what to do. We can't make it on one car either; H has to teach in person Tues/Thurs; my daughter has class Tues./Thurs. She said both the other driver & the policeman were nice though it was her fault since she was turning left, so she'll get a court summons through the mail (it unfortunately happened in a school zone). At least it was a slow speed accident, everyone is OK.

Oh gosh Blueberry - not the news you need. I'm glad everyone is okay. But what a bummer.

So I applied for a job that's 10 minutes from home at a primary school because I just feel like I've blown chances with my son's Primary School. Perhaps it's better to just get Australian Primary School experience SOMEWHERE so that perhaps at the end of next year when I apply to my son's Primary School, they see my experience and they say YES. Who knows, I may even like it at the other school? Only problem is it runs October to October. Must be someone going on maternity leave or something. It's very strange dates.

@Blueberrybook, I’m so glad everyone is okay. I’m sure it was unsettling for you though.

I did not summit today. I was so close too but I started not feeling great. I kinda think if I pushed myself the rest of the way, I would’ve had SAR get me down. I had to break on the way back home because I was losing vision driving (not safe at all) but I put my compression shyt on and had salt and vinegar potato chips and that got me home. I was so close to choosing a “do not descend” (due to technical and sketch factors) route up too. (This is the route I bailed on, I’ll get a pic or two of my own not even close to this high up later or tomorrow).

I see my PCP tomorrow down in the old city. I will willingly go to the other ER to go IP if it still feels like the thing to do afterward. Even hiking as coping feels like it’s going to kill me now when my choices are spend hours justifying not risking my life or risk it when I shouldn’t even be doing that kind of elevation.

@Blueberrybook I'm so sorry everything is so hard right now. I'm glad your daughter is ok. I know you've been anxious about her driving anyway. It sounds like she was responsible about the whole thing which is good. I hope things work out with vehicles.

@gary290 hope it goes well tomorrow.
