Are We There Yet? The Drive is Over.

Today’s the last day of the WFUV member drive. My last day of waking up at an ungodly hour. My alarm went off at 5 AM, instead of taking my meds and popping out of bed, i rolled over and went back to sleep. When I woke up i was afraid i was going to be late but it was only 5:07. It could have been an hour as far as I experienced it. It did mean that i had to not waste any time getting ready and walk quickly. The drive starts at 6 AM and as I’m supervising I have to get here early to make sure the phones and computers are working right and let volunteers know what to do. We’ve been having network issues all week. Today it was the phones that i had to wrestle when i got in. I won.

I changed the dressing on my shin before I went to sleep. There was blood on in this morning. It’s not a bad injury but it keeps flowing. I figured i can get some sympathy out of it.

I had my first free time in days. I got to sit in my chair and watch TV. What a luxury. Too bad it was <i>Legends of Tomorrow</i> Which is close to jumping the shark. Still it was two hours where my time wasn’t demanded and I appreciated it

Today I’m being good, I’m going to recertify for Medicaid. This is anxiety trigger over anxiety trigger. I could just run away and stay at WFUV. It’s tempting to do so, but I’m going to resist. I found out today that I can do it right by Montefiore Hospital, so not far from my house. I’ll get more nice exercise. As long as the drive goes on I take mile walks from home to Fordham and to Montefiore.

With the drive over I’m changing gears. I have three concerts the next two days and Doctor appointments Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I have to see an optomistrist too.

I feel bad I’ve been writing so little but it’s difficult to write while I’m supervising the volunteers. I’m using all my brain power trying to remember everyone’s name One of the students I’m Facebook friends is here now. Hi Julia! I’m using up all my witticism live. I’ll be back to be funny and insightful tomorrow.
