Not feeling good today

I didn’t have a good sleep. I was up most of the night in pain as my CRPS foot flared up. It was also hot in my room despite the fan being on. Today was in the 90s so it was even hotter. Right now a thunderstorm is passing through and my head hurts.

I did nothing all day except try and sleep. I didn’t sleep with the pup because my niece was home. My nose has been itchy all night and so has my body. I have no idea why. I think it was because of dry skin. I never showered like I wanted to. I did brush my teeth though.

Last night I took my final. 150 questions. I am sure I got 75 wrong. I feel so stupid. I couldn’t get the pedigree stuff as I never understood them. My biggest worry was that I was going to run out of lead in my mechanical pencil. I didn’t bring another pencil and I just had a pen. But I didn’t. I will fill it up with lead sometime this week so I don’t forget. I forgot to look over the amino acids so I am sure I got those wrong, too.

I haven’t eaten much today. I just had coffee but I have been drinking water. I want to make some eggs but I don’t feel like cooking. I am just really tired and worn out. I kept waking up every couple of hours last night. I had to pee a few times. Some times I couldn’t get comfortable. I was in a lot of pain. And my foot still hurts. I think the thunderstorm passing through was why it flared up.

I am going to take my meds and then go to bed. I am really tired. I just hope I sleep through the night. Tomorrow I have therapy. I need to set the alarm so I don’t oversleep.

Studying

I got up around noon and the pollen count was high so I was sneezing my head off when I left my room. I woke up a few times during the night, once to pee and the other because my brain decided to wake up. It took forever to get back to sleep. I had taken trazodone so it wouldn’t happen but I guess waking up to pee caused a disruption.

My niece came over so I had some food with her that her mother made. It was good. Around dinner time I wanted a burger, but didn’t have any. I had a chicken sandwich instead. Wasn’t the same. Afterwards I went upstairs and tried to do some studying. I took a practice test and it was the wrong one with no answer key. Fuck.

I still need to do my meds for the week. I am tired. I don’t think I can study anymore. I had two coffees today. One hot, one iced. I drank the iced one pretty fast. I love making iced coffee. I got the ice from my sister’s apt because I don’t know what happened to our ice trays. They are all gone. I think there is just one left but they are small pieces of ice and I didn’t want that.

Think this is all I am going to write today. I can’t seem to think of anything else to say and my nerves about this exam is so damn high. I think I am going to read chapter 2 on water so I can possibly understand bonds more.

I woke up around 330a to pee and had a hard time getting back to sleep. Then when I did, I had weird ass dreams. I heard my sister get up and it was over. Around 7 I took my morning meds and some Tylenol as my head was killing me. Pollen count was high today and the weather was just beautiful. It was the first good day in a long time. I thought about going out but I chickened out. I will pick up my meds on Mon before my final.

I corrected my practice exam and did poorly. I got to go over the answers and see what I did wrong. Half of the questions are listed as “not on the exam” and of course, I got those right. Ugh. I went over the slides but was dealing with a migraine so it was hard to take in the information. I found a helpful file about formula groups being polar or nonpolar, hydrophilic, hydrophobic, etc. I got the groups all wrong on the practice test. The only one I got right was the phosphate group.

I wanted to nap but decided to eat something. I had some soup and a big glass of water. I have not been drinking today. I had some coffee when I got up at 10 but that was all I drank other than the tonic at lunch. I feel so full.

I’ve been having nerve pain since early this morning in my leg with CRPS. It’s the first time I woke up with it in a long time. I don’t know why I have been having more nerve pain lately. I got aches and pains everywhere these days. My arm keeps shaking when I lay down to sleep. I told my neuro about it. I think it is something to do with the ulnar nerve. I might be compressing it somehow.

My pup has been outside most of the day and been one attention seeking dog. I came upstairs to write this and she came upstairs looking for me. Usually she just curls herself on the bed. Nope not today. She needs a bath and to be groomed as she is shedding but won’t stay still to be brushed.

I am listening to Mary Chapin Carpenter’s Personal History. I need something soothing for my mood. I don’t feel like listening to the ballgame. The Sox are a disappointment this year. Just aren’t hitting and keep losing games.
