Weekending around a medication
It was an ibandronate weekend, so i was very cautious about leaving the house. The side effects to this monthly medication have varied widely, unfortunately, so have to plan as if they're going to be bad. This month they were middling.
Worked a 500-piece jigsaw puzzle that was trickier than i'd guessed it'd be. But that might've been the brain fog. (it was totally the brain fog.) Should've stuck to a re-do rather than a new one.
Did manage a grocery run, thankfully, so didn't have to meal plan out of the pantry. The particular store might not be in my rotation for much longer, though. For the third time since the place changed hands a few months ago, a product was priced much higher ($16.99 --> $27.50) in the system than on the shelf. And i didn't catch it at checkout this time, which is frustrating. I knew the total felt high, but was too foggy to really think it through.
Got a brain freeze from eating frozen honeydew. It was too hot to eat it more slowly!
Rescued a gecko from the washing machine.
Only yesterday realized that the CBT-i app i've been using for over a month has short body scans and guided visualizations in it. Now to see whether i remember when i actually need to use one....
Got all the week's work-time meals cooked and packed early this morning.
- Second breakfast: blueberries, almonds, oats, and yogurt
- Lunch: sorghum, chicken, collards, and honeydew
- Snack: dates and gouda
While listening to an audio book, the narrator said "...there was a chime of magic..." and one of my alarms went off!
