For your reading pleasure, I present mole rats (with a squick alert):
Happy Tuesday Morning… 😂
Ugh, up early gang. Was going to make myself sleep, but dropping back into my sleep cycle will only feel worse when the alarm goes off.
These Winter afternoons have been gorgeous. I am looking forward to this one.
I kind of feel Melbourne’s endless roadworks has made that inevitable.
I’ve had a weirdly positive day… I mean, a little unexpected. Even though I was running late, I made good time. Even though I missed tea break, had a shortened lunch, wasn’t all that hungry and ran out of time (and verbally road raged a little on the way home), I:
- made it to a Uni appointment
- had some meaningful conversations in intervention deliveries
- made it to my extra-curricular session on time
- had some more meaningful conversations
And just all round one of those days where for a moment you feel as if you’ve woken up, are about 95% yourself and things feel somewhat good… like a distant memory.
I’m even in one my fav burger shops that is always empty and there are about 8 or so other people eating in and it feels… nice.
No guarantees for tomorrow, but I think being grateful for just even the ability to even get out of bed is underrated. ✨
🖤 It sounded like it was a bit of an anomaly from the snatches of staff conversation I could hear.
Definitely! I got checked for meningitis and asked a few questions to rule out anything else. The eye pressure I was most concerned about didn’t seem to be a worry and that eased off with every else. That was probably my main concern, so definitely worth checking! ✨
Interesting…
Wrestling with any big decisions?
25/50
Normally I’m hot garbage at these… But today I’m 7% up in average.
What sorcery is this? 😂
Hope it goes quickly! 🖤
Thanks! Definitely revelling in my humanness today!
I was actually lucky. I think it wasn’t too busy at the ED, so triage was quick (one NS was on and another came on not long after. One person was being seen and one was in front of me.)
Maybe lucky if that took all of 10-15mins. I got in quite quickly, IV + anti-emetic first. Moved 3 times (chair + 2 beds). Dozed a lot. First bed was where I got Panadol (didn’t touch the edges) and finally whatever it was they gave me. After 30 mins it still didn’t clear, I moved beds again, but I managed to doze it off maybe after another 90min+ and didn’t need the next line. Maybe 5ish hours all up? It did take a couple of hours to see a Dr., but everything else was very smooth.
It was just the fact that it was so debilitating? Like at the worst, I could sleep it off for a few hours, or overnight, but this was not budging at all. I maxed out my OTC stuff and wasn’t sleeping through. Utterly nauseous, super light sensitive. Felt like living hell like a hangover on steroids. Given this was not alcohol related, definitely made me think how I ever survived hangovers in the first place. I mean I jest now, but there was no way I would have ever gone to ED if I didn’t feel it was this bad.
(I’ll admit I was slightly embarrassed. I hated the thought of taking up a bed from someone else who might have needed it more, so as soon as I was good to go, I was out of there. So grateful to all the HC staff. No one made me feel as though I was wasting their time and just said come back if it’s an issue again.)
IG gives me the absolute *****.
The only notifications I want are direct msgs. That’s it.
I have turned off a bajillion settings and I am still getting notifications about things I do not care about.
In fact the amount of settings should be illegal. It’s like bamboozling someone with fine print they can’t read.
