Waking up again...

Still not used to working in the new place...had to change my shift to accommodate the economic dry spell that the company's going through...I'm going in later and leaving later, because the work falls later in the day...that and our usual financial difficulties has had me in a weird rut, that I'm just now figuring out and attempting to rally from. Just now back to feeling human again too, after the 3 H's of this past weekend (hormones, hangover, and hard work)...bleh!

Excellent example of how the world's problems aren't getting solved by our current leaders, because they've definitely got their wires crossed somewhere along the line...while I'm sure this story is taken out of context a bit, it's still a jaw-dropper: http://tinyurl.com/6mw8ka.

I'm in a creative dry spell too...until I get used to the schedule difference probably...getting home later means later meals and cleanup, means feeling rushed at the end of the day, so I'm not in the mood to knit...I'm just out of sorts. (whinewhinewhine) Not getting enough fresh food either, and I've been slacking on the health factor of my lunches, so it's no wonder we've hit rut territory again. Damn broken record. Need to get baking again...I'm tired of granola bars and fruit.

Going with Husby to next week's doctor's appointment so I can yell at the guy again...it's impossible to get him (Husby) working when his quality of life sucks so badly...I'd love to blame it on his shame over his teeth, but really it's the fact that he's still always in pain. If I had blazing headaches everyday, I'd be useless too, and this is while he's on what are supposed to be decent medications! Problem is, he can't take the triptan meds that are normally prescribed for migraines, he gets bad reactions with them, so instead he's stuck with pain meds that taken often enough, put him in a cyclical situation, so that nothing works for the breakthrough pain. There's gotta be more options...but he doesn't remember to ask the right questions when he has his appointments with the guy, so I'm going along because I'm the boss :) I feel a pinch more secure with my job, but we still so need him working too...

Geez, my husband has had daily headaches for 12 years now, and his philosophy on healing is totally different than mine. He lives for his pain meds,and he never remembers what to ask the doctor. It is such a treadmill, the doctor is getting richer and meanwhile, the patient is just a number. No thought to holistic management. But I have to try to put myself in his shoes, I never have headaches so I shouldn't be so b---hy, but it is hard not to. Hope your hubby gets some relief!
