Mid-Week Blog Post for 4.15.26.

Tweet

I haven’t done a “Mid-Week Blog Post” in so long, I don’t even remember what hashtags I use for it lol. But it doesn’t matter. I’ll just wing it! Anyway, this is going to be one big ramble, in case I don’t post later. So, I barely had any side effects from my ADHD meds yesterday. Today, I had a little anxiety because I needed a coffee, but I’m sipping it. I won a coffee and chose the smallest size, and my big tumbler cup is full of water. Fortunately, most, if not all, of the anxiety is gone, and I'm doing okay. In addition to my meds, I’m recognizing when I need to take control of my distractions. I was making small talk with people, which was nice, but now I’ve moved to the back of the coffee shop. While the tables are more comfortable, I work better back here. As I said before, I’m not looking to rely solely on meds. I want to be able to complete more work in a day, so I need to realize when my focus is shifting and work to fix it. I also logged out of X (Twitter) because I kept checking it for some weird reason. I wanted to post this and get my MyLotting out of the way FOR NOW, but I’m planning to log out once it’s posted. I haven’t slept well these last two days. I honestly DON’T think it’s the meds because it’s extended-release, and my psych and I came up with a good time to take it in the morning, so it’ll wear off by bedtime. I just couldn’t get comfortable, so I’ll have to change up my positions, like sleeping on the other end. It’s also been a little warm out at night. It rained pretty hard last night, so we had to close the windows for a bit to keep the rain out and away from the outlets. They were eventually opened again, but I was probably stuffy. I’m going to take a Melatonin tonight, though. Maybe I’ll watch a comfort movie, or The Golden Girls lol. I’m craving some sunlight, so I’m going outside in some capacity other than the walk home. Whether I go to the park or just chill on the front steps, we’ll see. Then, I’m getting back to work. I have the order I have now, a revision, and another order, and I want to work on them all today. It’s fine. Things were slow a few weeks ago, and I have a four-day weekend coming up, so I don’t mind. Honestly, I would LOVE to just go to the library and finish my work there, since the coffee shop closes at 5 pm, but I’d prefer a ride (long story), and that’s too short notice. But it’s a plan for another time. Okay, I have more to say, but I’ve decided to split the post up anyway, since it’s getting long. I’ll be back in a few minutes or so lol.
