Annoyed

So.  I’m annoyed.  And as a result of being annoyed at such a ridiculous thing, I am also selfish, thoughtless, stupid and self obsessed. 

Yeah, I’m a winner.

Still dealing with health crap which I’ve actually kind of gotten used to.  I’m tired, slow witted, unmotivated and grumpy.  But last week I came up with new symptoms that really just pushed me too far and pissed me off.   Want to know the tragic tale of woe that has befallen me?

Grab a tissue.

My hands and feet are numb.

I know.  I’ll wait while you pull yourself together.

Oh, the horror.

Ok.  Its not tragic.  And a perfectly normal occurance with the health stuff I’m dealing with.  But – now I cannot knit or crochet.  And thats like telling me that I can’t eat.  Don’t mess with my food or my fiber crafts. 

Now I know there are people dealing with much worse.  MUCH worse.  And its why I don’t really blog about stuff or even really want to talk about it.   I deal with the hair falling out, the dehydration, the constant pills that I have to time out daily, the weakness, the new meds I’m guinea pig testing, the fatigue, the dim wittedness (its a word), the needle pokes three times a week and the fact that private areas of my body have been viewed by more eyes this year than ever in my whole life.  

But why the hands? 

And how shallow am I?

Don’t answer that.

My doc thinks she may have the answer but I have to wait for lab results on Monday.   This means a weekend of replacing knit/crochet with buying knit/crochet products.  That…. I can do.  I’ll show them.  Whoever ‘them’ are.

A pic of me annoyed.  Just for shits and giggles.  :)

This concludes the whine ass blog post.

  1. Oh hell. How can I tell a joke about your slow-wittedness (also a word) and body parts viewing when you feel so rotten?

    The numbness really sucks and it’s ok to whine. I know “I met a man with no feet” and all but, seriously, why can’t you say how you feel?

    If you need help shopping for stuff on-line, IM me and we’ll take a little trip to the “stores”. I enable with the best of ‘em!

    HUGS!

  2. That sucks. I’m sorry. I hope the Doc has a solution for you. I’m sending good thoughts.

  3. It’s perfectly ok to take a day or two and be upset and annoyed at one’s situation. I hope your doctor has a solution. I’d lose it if I couldn’t do something fibery in a day.

  4. Good grief, if you cant whine here where can you? Plus, that whole ’some folks got it worse thing’ .. you got it like you got it, and it’s FINE to put how you feel first. Hang in there, let us know if you need anything…and whine on sister :-)

  5. See, I’m loving the photo. ‘Cause I’m guessing there’s a modern-day Roxanne striking just about that same pose right now. . .
