I woke up at 6:00 this morning having to go to the bathroom. For the next two hours I went every 10 minutes or so. It finally slowed down a bit but I decided not to attempt to go to KC today. Wasn’t sure I could find enough bathrooms along the way if needed. Turns out I could have gone but have felt drained this afternoon. I’m sure I am a bit dehydrated. I have been attempting to drink as much water as I can tolerate.
This kinda sucks! Not the way I had planned my day to go. I wanted to get this mental test over with today. They rescheduled it for next Tuesday.
I hope I can go on Friday for the physical test. We are to get lots of snow tonight and into tomorrow. There is a second system coming behind the first one that may have more snow. I will see how the roads are Thursday night and decide if it will be safe to go. I have to be there at 9:00 so will have to drive in rush hour traffic. Not my favorite thing to do when the roads are nice.
The good news of the day is I got a stay at home day and I get another one tomorrow. Hoping between the two of them I will get over whatever this is and feel better by Thursday.
Feeling a bit weak and rung out this evening. Two days of tummy issues can drain a person. I’m grateful I was able to call and cancel going to KC. There was a time in my life that I would have attempted to push through and go. Since things slowed down I might have been able to go but I don’t think I would have done very well on the testing.
Funny how life gives me little lessons daily. I never know when or how they might present themselves. Grateful I was able to practice good self-care and do what I needed to do for myself today. I am 71 years old and am finally learning to put myself first.
Grateful things have slowed down, grateful I was able to stay home today, and grateful I get another stay at home day tomorrow.
