i finally gave up on trying to find the notebook; i probably overlooked it somewhere. one day i'll find it.
i bought this notebook for $14 from the same vendor/brand as the other. it's a smaller, because i missed something more compact. lots of great features. i'm looking forward to filling it up!

didn't sleep well, again. having two appointments each day, waiting an hour for the most intense one to start, and having lab work that went awry after that took their toll on me.
i'm back to resting. going to try to get some things done from the couch later.

the Singles to Go Tampico Citrus Punch (zero sugar) tastes just like the zero sugar bottled version. and i only use half a packet in about 30 oz of ice water. it's so refreshing. 😌
the Mango Punch is great, too. i just prefer the Citrus Punch.

Doctor Who's “Heaven Sent” episode, starring Peter Capaldi almost entirely by himself, reminds me of my grief for my mother. it also grounds me, and gives me hope to persist.

thank you. my partner and i continue to advocate for me/myself, because it didn't need to get this bad. but, again (i know you understand!), i only have so much energy right now.
a few of my providers seem to be advocating for me, too, though, so there's that.

i'm not sharing a photo of myself right now. here, have today's front page.
i'm also not rehashing my symptoms because i've posted enough times about them over the last three months. and frankly, they're gross – especially what i went through this weekend. +
