What's on your Monday Menu, RNYers?

Good afternoon.

i literally almost had a heart attack yesterday. My cat went with me downstairs to clean the cat pan & feed em. He cornered something under my recline bike. Thought it'd be some little bug(half our basement is a dirt room...lots of bugs.). Nope it was a freaking 4 inch centipede. I almost screamed and I did jump. I didn't kill it though...captured it and will take it out to our shed today. So thankful it didn't sting the cat! I have pics but will spare y'all the unpleasant gross out. Just eww....heebee geebees!

I think I have a bit of a stomach bug.

qotd. Not unless my med for insomnia kicks in super fast. My Fitbit says my sleep score is a 36 out of a 100. So I sleep like crap usually.

Yikes on both the centipede and flu. I hope you feel better.

QOTD: Do you fall right to sleep when you go to bed? Most of the time within 10 minutes of putting my phone down. Sometimes later.

Enjoy your evening everybody!!

Are you all recovered? You were sick for so long, I hope you are back to full strength now!

I am about 90% recovered. Sunday was the first time back to swimming laps in 4 weeks and it was really tough but it was great to get back the pool. I still have a lot residual coughing but it's getting a little better every day. Thank you for asking. :)

I am glad to hear that!

QOTD- I wish I could say I fall asleep easily but it is a huge struggle. Last night was awful I don't feel like I slept at all, but must have for a few minutes here and there. I have a terrible time shutting down my mind. I feel like it's the gerbil on the wheel, squeak, squeak, squeak...running and getting nowhere. I do take Lunesta and it usually helps but not last night. Also for some reason 4AM is the time my cat decides he needs to be fed.

I've been MIA lately. My roommate is still in the hospital, and they have no idea when he will get out. They are doing PT and OT to try and get him ready to come home. But the pain is what limits his movements. I am exhausted I work and then go to the hospital, and the drive induces lots of anxiety. I try to take the back roads to avoid the traffic jams but it's still makes me nervous. I've had to do some running around for him and so I don't feel like I have any down time or enough right now. This is the 12th day in the hospital for what should have been 1-2 nights.

The wellbutrin should be out of my system by now, but I'm still feeling like I have no energy. I'm hoping things will get better soon. No holidays for me, so I need to get back to my stressful job.

Have a great day everyone!
