Lunch, Rosie, Sushi, walk with mom

September 8, 2023: Well I didn’t do my photos of the day for the last two days. I was just feeling too low. Today, my mom made me sit down and do it. I admit it’s probably a good project to keep up anyways. In the morning, I had my meds at 5:06am with a yogurt. I decided I just wanted to get it done as soon as I woke up, before I had even gotten up really. Also, this morning I watched a bunch of videos and listened to audio books on my phone. Then, for lunch, I had some of the wild rice soup that the Cripe family had brought over last night, and also some white rice with soy sauce. I ate that with Papa, who I hung out with much of the day, like yesterday. He ate the leftover burger that the Cudd family had brought over last night, and reminded me that when I can finally eat normally again, mine is still in the fridge. I also got my BeReal perfectly on time with Rosie in it at 1:07pm. Funny enough, I also got yesterday’s one time, and I forgot to do the extra posts I earned. Today, Papa also read me a few chapters from Harry Potter, even though he admits he mis-stated some things. When he did that, I tried to remember the house that everyone was sorted into before it was said. Anyways, now my mom has come over for the night, and my dad is staying at my aunt’s house while she and her boyfriend are out of town. Let me finish writing through the photos.... I have my lunch, my pic with Rosie, my pic of me eating the sushi that my mom brought over for dinner, and the selfie of us taking a walk up and down the block. I’d actually already taken a walk today, with my dad, and we walked a bit farther since he had the dog with him. Anyways, I’m feeling pretty down now, even though I successfully had my first shower since the surgery. At least I succeeded in having my night meds exactly 12 hours after the morning ones... I had them at 5:06pm with 13g fat sushi that my mom brought I get that I shouldn't be so obsessed with getting the times exactly right, but it's still a nice extra thing when it happens. And then at the end of the night, mom and I watched the whole first Twilight movie. Afterwards it was long enough after my meds that I could eat, and I was quite hungry, so I had some more leftover sushi. Then, mom and I planned for tomorrow a bit.

Grateful: for ice packs. They help more than pain meds sometimes, which I think I've said before but it's still true.
