$494.90 Spent On Lyrica
Spent the day napping, crying over cost of meds and in gratitude for my wife, and playing with watercolors and yarn.
The cost of my Lyrica is $500 a month. Out of pocket. Until September.
Fucking wonderful.

I had today off and posed for a painting I forgot to take a picture of. Whoops.
My brain fog is super bad today, so I’m just going to say that I spent the day with a friend, did some crocheting and cross stitch, and now I’m going to bed.
G’night folks. Take your meds.

I’m having a really, really bad fatigue flare up. Flair up, flare up? The latter. Anyway. Brain fog, exhaustion, really short emotional fuse, and the like right now.

I’m a little emotionally exhausted today, so I’m going to be brief:
