My watch says I slept for only5 hrs
and 12mins and I was awake for 31 mins. It was after midnight before I settled,
when my alarm went off at 5am I got up went to the toilet and took my meds then
went back to bed for another 30mins. When I got up, I had a shower and dressed.
Tim and I went over to Kmart and
bought a garment steamer to do his shirts.
It has turned out a warm day.
I have been struggling to find
motivation to do stuff today, I was fine first thing this morning but after we
got home from shopping my motivation had drained.

My watch says I slept
for only 9 hrs and 12mins and I didn’t wake at all. I also woke up with a
headache. Jessica bought me a ham & cheese pocket and a hash brown for
breakfast.
Tim took the car to
have the light bar fitted to the car, he left at 7.30am and it was around
1.30pm when he got home but he said he is happy with it.
He has packed his
stuff to go away for a few days with work, he is going to Sydney tomorrow and
will be home Thursday night or Friday he isn’t sure just yet.
I am so over the
dyskinesia I have had this problem the last few days and it is exhausting and
frustrating and yes, it is depressing me.

I will add here that
I don’t walk that far most of the so-called steps are to do with movement and
some days my body moves a lot. This is something Tim said last night about my
high steps and not walking I reminded him about how much my body moves some days,
and he said yeah, he knows.
I had a good night my
watch says I slept for only 9 hrs and 21mins and I didn’t wake at all.
Tim has left this
morning he is working in Sydney for a few days and will be home either late
Thursday night or Friday morning.
I rang Centrelink and
the man I spoke to was very helpful and after some time he managed to arrange
for a letter to be sent to me stating I get no payment from Centrelink.
Tim video called me
tonight he is a room on his own which makes him happy, he said the room was
very small, but they are at Ibis.

Another good night my
watch says I slept for only 9 hrs, and I was awake for 31mins.
I did a load of washing
and hung it out this left me hot and exhausted.
While I was using the
powerfit and doing my exercises I was surprised to see Sue turn up. Turned out
the morning voice message I sent to Sue was staticky and not right, so she came
to check on me.
It is a nice warm winter
day.
Tim rang at 7.10pm just
to check in and see how I was he said he should be home sometime tomorrow
night. Although I suspect it will be the early hours of Friday morning.

Another good night my
watch says I slept for only 7 hrs and 13 mins and I was awake for 13 mins.
It is a cold and
windy day. I went shopping with Sue and it felt good to get out of the house.
Sue’s birthday
present for Jeannie arrived and it looks good. I have done my present to for
her already to post, I see how much it will cost to post and if it’s too much I
may get Sue to give it to her when she sees Jeannie, Sue’s present is too
fragile to post.

I slept well, 9hrs
& 21mins and I was awake for 32 minutes. Tim is home he went to bed a I was
getting up, as he is off today, I will let him sleep till whenever he gets up.
Tim got up at 9.30am,

Sue took me to have
thee Xray and Ultrasound done.
It is a warm day
Kathy came over
around 3.45pm she was here for just over an hour, she brought back all dad’s
genealogy stuff. She uploaded it all to ancestry dot com.
I went to bed at 8pm

What a night, after returning to
bed I couldn’t settle I was tired but nope wasn’t happening, I had to get up
and find the Vicks to rum under my nose as I felt like I was all blocked up and
couldn’t breathe right. Then I found myself needing to pee often live every 45
mins. So, when the alarm went at first, I didn’t want to get up, but I needed
to pee again and decided to stay up. I can close my eyes later if I need too. I
have had only 3hrs & 52mins of sleep.
Tim and I went to the shops so I could
get a new vapor stick thing that you run under your nose to clear it making it
easier to breathe.
Tim thought he broke the new
laminator as it was jammed, he was going to toss it, but I said just remove the
jam he had to take it apart to do that but after he did it worked just fine, he
should have done that with the last one instead of having a hissy fit and
tossing it in the bin.
As I was getting up to go to bed, I
had a moment when I found it hard to stand upright, thankfully Sam was nearby
and helped by holding me while I straightened up without falling over after I was
upright, I was fine.

Read and enjoyed every word. I like seeing how you do according to the watch. And you are certainly right. Extra movements count as steps as the watch doesn't know what's going on...only that there is a type of movement it is looking for. I used to love seeing my steps daily but my back is so painful I don't get as many nowadays.
ReplyDeleteYeah I like seeing how much I moved during the day, I use to be able to walk a lot during a day now I can't.
DeleteI've discovered the older I get, the less motivation I have. Lots of times I have to force myself to get up and move!!
ReplyDeleteIf I don' t get up and move I start to feel stiff
DeleteWhat a week of ups and downs you had, Jo-Anne. Hope things will smooth out in the coming week. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteI hope things go smoothly during this week as well
DeleteSounded like an up and down week. Glad you got out and about a little, though, and had some really good nights of sleep. :)
ReplyDeleteMost weeks are up and down that's just life
DeleteYour sleep is about like Laurie's. She works 2nd, and stays up sometimes till 2 AM. Then struggles to get to sleep.
ReplyDeleteIt is horrible when one can't get to sleep
