Winter SADness

December 4, 2018 time: 0008

Sydney and I have been sleeping quite a bit as of late. He is stuck with homework at night and leaves it till I can help him. He is very stable and is taking his medicine on a regular basis. His therapist, Artis  has told him a few weeks ago that she was leaving the practice to stay closer to home in Memphis. I don't blame her, nobody wants to purposely come to Marianna if they don't have to.

Today I went in for a woman's dreaded PaP Smear and discussed with NP Shepherd that I was a little depressed from everything as of late and she said that it wasn't helping that my Vitamin D levels are on the low side being 37 (30-100) even being on an Rx. She wrote me  an Rx for Effexor and I pick it up tomorrow. She said that it may help in weight loss and my neck nerve pain. I'm all for that. I then went on a trip to Save-A-Lot that resulted in a 10 bag purchase of celery at 49 cents each. I spent the remainder of the day cutting and bagging celery. I made a pot of beef stew and just put on chicken thighs to boil for a pot of chicken noodle soup.

It's been a long day and I'm ready for some pillow hugging
