Of Time and Triggers

March 17, 2021 ~ Theodora Vanyar ~ Leave a comment

13,046 Days Alive

This ain’t a happy one, y’all. I am about to discuss sexual assault. Might wanna skip this one.

3 Butter Tarts Eaten

1 Old Favorite Shared with Fen

Somehow, despite knowing me for almost a decade, Fen had never seen the movie Practical Magic. Until tonight! We watched it and they really enjoyed it.

Of Butterscotch and Balancing Acts

March 13, 2021 ~ Theodora Vanyar ~ Leave a comment

13,041 Days Alive

I started my new sleeping medication tonight. Gods knows I’ll just continue to put it off if I don’t. I’m not sure yet the side effects, but I’m anxious and exhausted. Even with having taken a nap today.

195 Miles Driven Today

6 Hours of my Life I’ll Never Get Back

4 Hours Alone in the Car

2 Hours of Testing

1 Bowl of Curry for Dinner

Had the ADHD testing done today in Maitland. 97 miles away. Ugh. Dr Fyffe didn’t even bother to meet me, which kind of pissed me off. I got assistant Joy who was nice enough, in an unflavored oatmeal kind of way.

Of Sunday’s and Simple Pleasures

March 7, 2021 ~ Theodora Vanyar ~ Leave a comment

13,035 Days Alive

Edit: son of a bit bitch I forgot to hit “publish”.

I had a friend over today to help me go through all my clothes and pack winter clothes away for the season. I finally conquered Mount Clean Clothes and got it all put away!

Of Chicken and Calling

March 1, 2021 ~ Theodora Vanyar ~ Leave a comment

13,029 Days Alive

I actually feel like I did well at work today. I did a lot of calls, I think, and I didn’t cry in my car after work. Even had the spoons to make dinner when I got home despite being exhausted.

15 Hour Day

2 Slices of Cake Eaten

I’ve been up since six am. Relatively okay, actually. I got done what I aimed to do this work day and mostly relaxed after work.

Of Pearls and Progress

13,021 Days Alive

1 Cup of Chai Enjoyed

So I made cheaters Caprese salad this evening. Basil, tomato, mozzarella pearls, spring mix, white onion, and balsamic vinaigrette. Super easy to make and eat. It gets better the longer it rests, too, so the leftovers will be awesome tomorrow.

Of Nausea and Nachos

13,018 Days Alive

3 Days of Migraine

1 Nauseous Me

I left work early today. I didn’t throw up in the trash can at work again, but it was a near thing. I did end up pain-puking when I got home and knocked out after a second dose of imatrex for almost three hours today.

5 Jalapeño Poppers Eaten

2 Grocery Stores Visited

1 Slightly Exhausted Me

There are times where I feel if I stop moving, if I slow down, if I freeze up, I’ll keel over. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s a form of mania? I’m honestly not sure. Whatever it is, it’s exhausting. Utterly taxing.

Of Brownouts and Blankets

13,015 Days Alive

1 Hour Without Power at Work

Today was fantastically frustrating. We lost power just after lunch today. Not for too long, but long enough to be annoying and to throw off my whole day.

13,011 Days Alive

2 Soft Tacos Eaten

I’m eight motifs into the twenty one of the blanket I’m making for Meg, the Jeweled Knot Blanket. It’s going really well. I may be able to make this pattern from memory by the end of it.

Of Needles and Noise

13,010 Days Alive

1st Dose of COVID-19 Vaccine Taken

So, my arm hurts like hell. Tender to the touch at the injection site. But I’m glad I did it.
