T-15 hours, 10 minutes

My mind is racing. My heart is beating out of my chest, I’m beginning to break into a sweat. I need a drink of water. I need to sit down. No, I need to stand up. No, I need to lay down. I need something, I just don’t know what it is. What is it? What do I need? What am I forgetting? What’s missing here? My mind is racing. I already said that didn’t I? I’m not having a heart attack…worry not. I’m going on vacation! Boy will I be glad when we get there, figure out what I’m forgetting, and just go buy another one. Unless it’s a kid. That would suck. Or would it? Yeah, it would. They need a vacation just as much as I do. They wish they could leave me at home so they can REALLY have a vacation, but unfortunately for them, they don’t have a license or know how to get there! But we will have a good time if I can help it. Forecast at the moment says: Saturday, Mostly Sunny (won’t be there until afternoon/evening). Sunday, isolated T-Storms; Monday, isolated T-storms; Tuesday, Sunny; Wednesday, mostly sunny; Thursday, partly cloudy; Friday, isolated T-Storms; Saturday, mostly cloudy (coming back that day). So, it kinda sucks, but the 10 day forecast is much better than it was yesterday. It said isolated or severe t-storms all week except Saturday….so apparently Gatlinburg is much like Indiana in that if you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes. If you don’t like the forecast, stop looking at it, cuz it isn’t right anyway!

But yes, it has been a stressful last couple of days. My mind isn’t where it should be apparently. I have been incredibly forgetful lately. Literally, I have always been a stickler for remembering everything. Never missed an appointment. Never really even had to put it on a calendar because once it goes in, it just doesn’t come out. I missed Alex’s post-op appointment the other day. Just completely spaced it.

When vacation is over, I have a cat scan scheduled Monday the 29th to see what is going on with me, why I have such horrible headaches, and maybe we’ll figure out why I am suffering from CRS as well. I hate to think they’ll find something, but boy would it be nice if they did and I’ll know I’m not just going through Alzheimer’s at freaking 30 years old. I just hope I remember to show up for the cat scan! lol. Alex’s rescheduled post-op is that same day as well, so I’m bound to get one out of two if not both.

Ok, I’m done writing for the day, and actually for the week. If I do manage to find some local hangout that has wi-fi or free internet access, I’m sure my kids won’t let me stay long enough to write anything….they’ll want to hit the ice-cream store next door instead (maybe they’ll have free internet access too J )
