it’s only tuesday

Let me tell you about my inauspicious start to July!

Last week I felt funny. Dizzy, out of sorts. Kept walking sideways into things, okay cool, we know this one. Vestibular issue. Just keep going

Then I spent the afternoon at a friends came home, took care of the animals, fixed myself some lunch DOWN I WENT! WTF‽ Okay. Weird. Stand back up and start doing stuff. Get my lunch on the table and BAM someone took the floor away again. Well now this is getting stupid. Stop standing, solves the problem, right?

Sat down to eat my lunch and the room starting fading away into oblivion. Now I am just getting mad. It is also when I realized maybe I am looking at the wrong thing – hey handy dandy Apple Watch – BEST investment ever – hows my heart rate? Oooooo look it keeps dropping down into the 40s. Too make a short story back to short – Worst Afib episode yet. Lasted a long time for me knocked me on my ass. I am lucky, mine usually only last under five minutes then my heart rights itself. This one was almost exactly an hour. And then hitchy for the next 24 hours. All back to normal now.

Yesterday I got my 2nd HEP A/B vaccine and it felt like someone punched me really hard in the shoulder. I yelped at the guy. :0 Then I went and got blood work done in preparation for my quarterly CT this week. No anxiety there (insert sarcasm)

Yesterday was also the day of every technology I worked with failing. I don’t mean my devices died but the rest of the world was just not working correctly. Capping it was a phone call that just bounced along between ridiculous and bizarrre. I think I was some sort of weird AI powered call center.

A brief moment of it for you:

AI – when would you like to schedule it?

ME – the 17th of July

AI – great I have availability the 16th!

ME – I cannot do the 16th

AI – Great, when would you like to schedule it

ME – the 17th

AI – Okay – let me look and see what I have on the 16th. Oh, I have something in OCTOBER

Eventually I got so mad I hung up on either the worst AI or dumbest person. Do you have any idea how hard it is to make me mad enough to hang up?

I jut had issues with everything yesterday. I am still missing in transit and communication some packages of vitamins but I am hoping I have at least temporarily used up all the bad juju and the rest of the week will be smooth. I do feel great so step #1 – DONE

Lemme go find a picture to end this whining!

    Last first: That AI thing is the WORST! Sometimes it is hard to tell but now I just suspect it right away. I swear that it seems they are being difficult on purpose. Sometimes you can’t get out of it and there is no recourse but the last time I asked for a real person and I GOT ONE. Should we have to feel relief at that?

    I’m so sorry that you are dealing with all of the bad stuff at once. I know that life isn’t fair but does it have to be spectacularly UNfair?

    The Afib episodes would be frightening. The randomness of it!!! Also you could hurt yourself! Maybe you need to start wearing a fancy motorcycle helmet or something?

    Does your watch send a fall alert? I got one when I fell hard one time.

    I like the effects, too – gotta find joy where we can!

    Sending you some better JUJU if possible!

    I think I do have the fall alert app. I just don’t have it turned on because I fall all the time usually over a dog.
    Today so far has been a much better day. A decent nights sleep, feeling good. Everything doing what it’s supposed to. WIN 🏆
    Also, I think I have spent hours and hours playing with all the effects on my watch and on my phone. I am ridiculous. I am a child when it comes to technology show me all the pretty lights and things dancing
