We returned from a fairly painless trip to Walmart. This close to Christmas the place is usually wall to wall and basket to basket people. Not this year. I ordered a baby shark stuffed animal that I believe plays the music from the theme for the one girl. It's due to be delivered next week.

Walmart doesn't box anything so hard telling what will happen to it if I'm not home. Might have to go get something else from the actual store if it meets an unfortunate end. LOL!

The other girl is getting a Barbie that comes with a mama dog and 3 little tiny puppies that she can actually have born from her. Cute as hell!

My coworker got a Cocomelon learning basket for the younger one. She requested sensory type toys which makes me wonder if she's autistic. The other one wanted a LOL Doll so we found the least offensive looking one we could find.

I needed some clippers since the ones in my purse bit the dust. I also got a bag of Rolos and a couple small bags of Tootsie Roll Midgees. Plus a 5 pk of wet wipes.

The orders I place from Walmart come in boxes. I'd be in trouble if they didn't because they just leave them in our lobby or else in the entrance way which is not inside the locked part of the building.

They don't here. All I get is the sack. If the stuffed animal is in the bag and I'm at work it could easily be damaged by weather or a stray dog may run off with it. LOL! If a stray dog runs off carrying a yellow baby shark plushy then he may have really needed it. I'll figure something out.
 
Today at Walmart I went into the beauty section where the makeup and stuff is. That's where they keep the nail clippers. I guess they've had so much get stolen from that section they have a cashier placed there like they do in electronics and you hafta pay before you leave the section.
 
Been a rough few days. Quite a few patients with bed bugs. Tonight someone made a mess outside the entrance doors. :sick: Glad it's not like that every night.

It is officially the 2 yr anniversary of my mother's death. I still can't think about it for too long without crying. Still trying to comprehend the things she did to me and told me when I was younger. I am waiting for my father to pass so that I can sit down with myself and begin my healing journey.

Maybe I'll luck out and get alzheimer's before that happens and then I won't even remember that I hafta deal with it. A girl can dream. :sneaky: We are into the holiday season and losing a loved one during that time is absolute torture. People listening to Christmas music and discussing what they're doing for the holidays. And for me it's just another day now.

Christmas music makes me miserable and yet I'm forced to be tormented with it for 32 days. I come home to the peace and quiet of my apt. and do my daily self care. It's all I can do now. I try to understand how I could be born with a neurological disorder and be treated like it was my fault I had it. When I was little I just remember feeling like nobody loved me ever. Still do to an extent.

I used to be depressed but always managed to claw my way out of it. Now I just go through periods where I'm sad for a while. It's funny how hard it is to muster the energy to take care of yourself when your heart aches and you just don't care anymore.

You spend your entire life taking a beat down from life itself. And you still manage to drag yourself outta bed and stumble on through the days and months and years. I honestly don't know how I managed to survive it. With at least some sanity. By rights I should be in a padded room muttering to myself.

I tried going to a therapist back in 2021. Didn't help at all. She had no clue what to do for me so she sent me to the psychiatrist for drugs that I couldn't take and didn't really want. So once again I was stuck taking care of myself and meeting my own needs. Now I figure there isn't much left that I couldn't manage to be strong enough to get through.

I wish I could bottle up some of that strength for Ronni right now.
 
Having issues with Gmail today. I see on Downdetector.com that it's been experiencing issues. So right now my main email acct. is misbehaving.

Also if I'm not breathing any better after work than I am now I will likely check myself into ER to be seen. I think I'm fixin to have another COPD exacerbation. Been short of breath all week.
 
i did the bare bones of my area and at twenty til 8 i turned in my keys and task sheet and clocked out and headed to er. i had a dr i don't normally have but he took good care of me. he had them check for a blood clot which was negative so i'm good. no covid, flu or rsv.

felt bad cuz i got bumped ahead of a gal with the flu that sat for 3 hrs and a lady with a broken wrist. i'll be getting another round of steroids. i got out of there at 10. came home and got changed. rounded up the trash for tomorrow and threw a pot pie in the microwave. a bunch of the staff came in to help care for me and check on me. it was nice.

gonna relax and look around on here before i go watch tv & go to bed.
 
i couldn't resist trying some new platform crocs. didn't know they made them. one of the little respiratory therapists has the small platform in animal print. she thinks they're more comfy than the hoka sneakers even. i found a pair of lisa franks i wanted so i'm treating myself to my first ever actual pair of crocs for christmas.

plus i got two packs of hello kitty charms for them. *giggles*

Since Gmail is experiencing technical issues here where I am I've had to change all my information and send it to my other email address. I'm not sure what is going on with Google at the moment.
