My guy is taking his dad to chemotherapy in the morning...he will probably be getting up in 2 hours, or 3am his time...the drive to Albuquerque takes about 2 hours so they need a real headstart.
His dada's hair has finally fallen out, after years of chemo...
He called me today, having driven straight from here to there. He sounded a bit delirious but definitely ready to sleep, which I hope he did, immediately and hopefully non-stop until he needs to get up in the morning.
Today I ate better than usual. Lots of greens for breakfast, ravioli and greens for lunch and just ate some greens and a piece of pork for late dinner. Usually I don't do anything heavier than veggies after the night shift, but something told me to get some protein in me and let it sit there overnight.
I've also been drinking more milk lately. The back pull I experienced last Wednesday really freaked me out. I thought I was scared pulling my foot muscles, the back strain was 100 times worse. Since then I've been making the effort to eat better. The internet told me a bunch of things but one thing that never occurred to me was how the food I eat directly affects my actual physical health. I've always thought in terms of food and weight. But in reality, the food I eat directly affects my muscles and their ability to function, as well as all the other parts of my body. It might sound like a "no shit" kind of thing, but realizing it is pretty intense.
So I'm sufficiently freaked out and am trying to eat well to repair my body asap.
My kitty is sitting in my lap as I type this. He's being a lot better now than he was this morning. He was attacking the hell out of me in my sleep. Since my guy is gone I dont think the kitty is used to the lack of cuddles. I cuddle him but I also am constantly doing something in the house like cleaning. My guy would just sit and play with the kitty for hours.
I'm glad the kitty is here.
Tomorrow I have my first professional hair appointment in probably a year, maybe longer. I am going to wake up, wash the hell out of my hair and prepare to experiment. This stylist better know how to handle super crazy hair or else I'm just gna get a trim and gtfo. I also want to get stuff for James tomorrow. I might have to call my dad. Also have to call the chiropractic office and see if they can fit me in on Thursday.
I'm really all over the place. I'm happy I can take care of myself.
