So today I went out and bought all of the things I’ve needed, and stocked up on them with 2-3 of the same items because next month I am going to have to pay the global bariatric fee. I can do it, it’ll be hard. So today because school has started back up for me, I had to get some basic school supplies. Want to see what I bought?

Pretty cool huh? I got a blue pack of pencil/pen set and other things I needed for the house. Which is amazing because I went into the dollar store with a list, bills paid and no worries. Other than that it was a pretty amazing day. I had a lot of fun with my Mom, sister and her boyfriend. We went to lunch and he had my laughing so hard my stomach hurt. I’m warming up left overs for dinner and that’s really all that I’ve got going on tonight other than trying to get a good crack on my homework. Oh and watching Switched At Birth *excited*. It sucks because Glee, Secret Circle, and Switched at Birth are ALL the same night. *sigh*. Thank you Tivo!

Well gotta run its like 7:36 pm and I’ve got to get a move on finishing dinner, and this school work.

I’ve never, ever had high blood pressure, EVER. The last time I went to the doctor’s it was a bit high, the nurse showed some concern as did I, and she suggested that I watch what I eat, and write it down when I have the dizzy, light headed, blacked vision etc. So being the good little patient I am, I did. And I noticed that when I had a green apple with a little bit of salt I would have a spell. Then after I had salt on my dinner, I had a spell. Mind you table salt is most of my salt intake. I broil, bake, boil or steam everything and everything in my diet is low fat, low cal, low sodium. So I have a salt shaker and a bunch of salt that I can no longer use. Wonderful. I’ll give it to someone I’m sure, but thankfully my sister told me there is such a think called No Salt. It tastes the same, but is a substitute. Its bit more expensive but if I don’t  have these  dizzy spells anymore, its worth it.

I’ve got so much reading to do for school, for gastric bypass, that feels like that’s all I’m doing is reading, taking notes creating outlines etc. And I have a wimba session at 2 pm.. Wimba is a virtual classroom that my school has set up for online students. Its nice. Well I’m getting off here to go do more school work!

Last weekend my Mac’s version of Microsoft Office 2010 decided to EAT half of my paper, for some reason it was not saving the edits, track changes, anything after a certain point, even though I was habitually saving my progress every half an hour. So about 5 hours worth of work, went poof. POOF! Fuck….

So after a prompt e-mail to my professor explaining to him I was working really hard and my Word closed out and I lost all of that work. So thankfully I was extended to this Thursday, aka tomorrow. So I am now working that much harder to get my work done and making sure it makes sense.

So because of this, everything I’ve been feeling lately is being put on the back burner, as is cleaning, and going through more things that I really should be going through. But whatever, school comes first. But to be honest, the apartment is starting to piss me off a little bit. Its such a dreary day that my mind is in the toilet and I just want to curl up with a book and read…
