WEDNESDAYNOVEMBER 26 2025
Restless sleep all night long. Burning pain in my right hand.
I got up at 3AM and went potty. Slept on the sofa. Burning pain in my right hand. I wrapped it in the heating pad and slept a little.
Hubby was up at 5AM.
Hubby let the dogs outside.
I turned on the fireplace. It was only 50 degrees outside.
Hubby made egg breakfast for the dogs and fed them. He gave cheese & tuna to the cats.
I made the bed and got dressed. I played with the cats on the bed.
I made hot eggnog latte for Hubby, hot tea, and Nanogreens for myself.
I cleaned up the counter and packed the dishwasher. Turned it on to wash.
In my office to do bookwork.
We closed the house up at 7:45AM.
Hubby drove me to Desert Pain Specialists in the FMF. Had to check in, pay co-pay and wait for doctor. Went back to the office. I told them that I wanted the shot today. Nurse took my vitals. 130/77. The nurse said they could do that if we paid cash. So I said go ahead. It was only $388.00.
We went back to reception. I paid the $ and then we waited to be called back. Hubby had to stay in reception while I went back to get the procedure.
Took me back to the recliners. Took my vitals again. 132/80. I was then taken into the surgery room. They sent up the ultrasound and swabbed my hands. Same as last time. LOTS OF PAIN when he shoved the needle in my left hand because the Doctor said there was a tight tendon in the way.
Finally done. Back to the recliner chairs. Took my vitals. A little elevated blood pressure. I waited for a few minutes, got my paperwork and went back to reception. I could not feel my hands.
Hubby helped me to the car. We drove home.
Hubby carried all my stuff into the house. Hubby put the dogs outside. He got some food - egg bites & chicken sausages for me made in the air-fryer.
He then set up the heating pad on the sofa for me.
Hubby left at 9:15AM.
I started the laundry.
I sat on the sofa and drank tea and my Nanogreens.
I took a nap. Let the dogs outside. They barked.
My hands are still pretty numb and hurting from the Prednisone injection.
I put away clean dishes and washed more.
I went outside to pick up dog poo.
I found that Riley had eaten a wooden stem top from one of my mini pumpkins. The cat was playing with a piece of wood on the floor. Then I had to see what she chewed up.
I took laundry out of the dryer and took it to our bedroom. Put it on the bed. Then I found the rest of the wood piece that Riley had chewed
I had to get out the vacuum and vacuum the floor and the bed. Wood fragments EVERYWHERE.
I did bookwork.
SUNSET 4:30PM WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 26 2025
Hubby called to let me know he was doing invoices at the shop and then would be home later.
He called again to verify that he had left his money bag at home, so he had no keys to lock the shop.
He drove home. I walked down to the mailbox.
At home, we locked up the house and left the dogs home.
We left in the FMF, drove to the shop and locked the doors.
Then we stopped at the Credit Union drive thru to deposit a check.
We then drove to Ace Hardware to make duplicate keys for the shop to put in the vehicle consoles. So this NEVER happens again.
We drove to Raven's house and fed the cats, re-filled the water bowl. Put packages in the house.
Drove to Panda Express to get dinner.
Driving out the parking lot, some stupid fat, young woman with two kids was walking thru the parking lot WITHOUT HOLDING THE KIDS HANDS. Both kids must have been 2 or under. They ran right out in front of the car. HUBBY HONKED THE HORN. She then grabbed her kids and waited for us to pass, but hubby put the car in park. The stupid woman kept looking behind her like she had more kids...so we waited and she finally walked across in front of us. All the while cussing (at us?) What a fucking bitch. You can breed, but you can't parent. It was so dark out and she is letting her kids run thru the parking lot.
We left there and drove home. I was in so much pain, all I could think about was a hot bath at home.
Hubby let me out of the car and I carried the stuff inside. He backed the FMF into the driveway.
I found SAGE on the floor inside the hallway, dead. Life just keeps getting worse. NOTHING gets better. There is no cause to be happy. Nothing to celebrate. Just beating your head against the wall. For nothing. EVERYTHING ALWAYS GETS WORSE.
I ran out to the car and started motioning to Hubby. I was in shock.
Hubby came inside and got her in a bag and took her to the garbage can. We will dispose of the body tomorrow.
Let the dogs outside until we went to bed.
I watched TV for a while. The chicken on my Panda Express bowl looked obscene, so I just ate the fried rice. I needed to take a painkiller.
Hubby watched TV. I did bookwork.
I took a painkiller. I took a hot bath. I went to bed at 11PM.
