I’m eating lunch at my desk (rf salami & cheese on rye).  I got to work a bit late today.  I woke up at 3 am and didn’t get back to sleep until after 5 am.  I’d gone into the living room because I was sick of tossing and turning in bed.  I flipped channels for a while and finally fell asleep on the sofa.  Without my alarm, I overslept by over an hour.  Not sure how I’ll feel by the time the workday is over.  May or may not feel up to the movie tonight, but it starts early, so I’ll probably still go.

Yesterday was nothing special in the evening.  I didn’t go to the gym, and we didn’t have tacos for dinner.  I had leftover pizza.  Not a stellar food day, and I haven’t finished logging it. 

This lung thing is still bugging me (but it’s not what made me wake up at 3 am).  I used the inhaler over the weekend, and I no longer have that ticklish sensation when I breathe.  But I still feel like I need to swallow, and when I do, I’m just swallowing air.  So weird and annoying.  I’m supposed to phone the doc today to tell him how I’m doing.  I’m going to tell him what I just wrote here, and then I’m going to tell him I’m stopping the inhaler and will see how I feel at the end of the week before doing anything further.  Bf is urging me to see a specialist, but I’ll just wait this week and then get a recommendation if I don’t feel better.   

I brought some old bank statements on the train with me and went through the receipts.  They are so old the ink on them is fading, but I do want to hang onto some of the receipts that are for things like home furnishings, etc.   Thankfully, most are just receipts for groceries, dinners out, and gas and I can just shred/dump them.  I dunno.  At some point I might actually video the contents of the house and have  receipts for some sort of home inventory just in case I need it for insurance purposes.  My friend lost everything in a house fire in June of ‘08 and her home still isn’t rebuilt.  Anyway, I’ve got a lot more of those statements to go through, but if I stick with it, it’ll eventually get done.  I just need to avoid feeling like I could get it done quicker if I did it all in one sitting at home instead of in dribs and drabs on the train.  This has happened in the past and the problem is I don’t do it at home. 

Okay, enough rambling.

    Yup–I was up early too. Crap. Must be a 3FC aura.

    LOL@recipts on the train! …I can just picture it. At least you are making moves on a project my friend! Less pressure that way. :)

    Your breathing issue…no good! I’ll say a prayer for ya. The tickle went away at the very least.
