3 Positives:
rest
work
a little fun

My Journey Notes:
I had my first SVT episode in a long time. Luckily, I was able to get it to stop without having to go to the ER for treatment. I haven’t had a breakthrough episode like that in several years and no idea what might have triggered it other than lack of sleep. And if that’s the case, I’ve got to figure out how to not have insomnia! 😉 The one good thing coming out of it, was that I was able to rest for a couple of hours once the heart rhythm had reset. Feeling fine this morning — so hopefully, we’ll be able to get things back on track today.

it’s never a bad day when you…

3 Positives:
20 cards completed (ministering cards for November)
3rd paper project completed, pictures taken
time outside

My Journey Notes:
missed last nights meds… oops! Need to make sure I take them this evening for sure. Didn’t keep to the “list” yesterday – kind of went somewhere else and never got back to it. Will definitely need to stay on task today to get things done. Hoping things go smoothly.

After several attempts yesterday to find a short video in my files (on the cloud), I turned to a backup document and found a link and it worked! So grateful for that and now I know I have another way to find a few missing files and images. YAY!

3 Positives:
self-care
gentle rains
old movies

My Journey Notes:
Holding steady at the moment. Lists are still my major go-to to check off chores, bill paying and a few other things. Grateful they are still helpful. The morning routine adjustments are working as well overall, though there are some days it is more difficult at times. Still not sure if the current dosage of thyroid hormone is right — or if the change in the weather is triggering the current bout of problems with cold, heat and hot flashes and that dang insomnia is back in full swing again. Bloodwork scheduled for the last week of the month… perfect timing with Halloween!
I’ve been working on some old online classes — there’s one class that’s pretty challenging, but I think I’m getting a hang of the software (finally). I’ve decided to incorporate some of the features and outcomes into some projects in the studio — and the last one worked fairly well, though pretty simple. A couple more are sitting in the queue with hopes of being able to export and print in the next day or so. It’s time to get a start on next month’s ministering cards.

self-care

3 Positives:
not all “experiments” fail
time in the studio was well spent
good food

My Journey Notes:
Another round of issues with the migraine med. Hmmm. Spent time on the phone with the clinic but not sure that got us anywhere since my dr’s office was closed for the day and no one on call to leave a message with. Same problem as before with the insurance not approving the scrip as written — UGH! Calling the pharmacy this morning to see what the “damages” are and make sure we can get it picked up this evening, as there’s a change in the weather moving in and the barometer is doing it’s thing — the med does take the edge off a bit on the barometer migraines. Tylenol isn’t cutting it! I have one pill left!
