Rainy Day Random Thoughts
1. Wearing my glasses makes me feel tired all day long. When it's rainy, I just do not see the point in dealing with contact lenses. There is no need for sunglasses and the prescription sunglasses just don't cut it, so I take advantage of these days to wear the cool glasses I invested in last year. For some reason, wearing them during the day makes me want to go to bed. I guess I associate not wearing glasses with getting ready for bed.
2. I always seem to be hungrier on days that I take off from exercising. I just don't get it, but I want to stuff my face even more when I don't work out. Thank goodness I work out most days of the week, if I didn't, I would weigh about 300 pounds.
3. I am a very impatient person when waiting for things to heal. I pick at scabs and blisters. I tried to perform blister surgery today, but it was not ready for the operation. Now I have skin that I cut away from the blister on the edges, but the middle is not ready to pull away yet. I also pick at my scabs. I am very lucky that I don't have too many scars from this picking. I have not yet picked at the scabs around my ankle from the timing band...they are itchy and I am so tempted to start picking at them, but I think that they'll bleed if I do this.
4. People think that they will melt in the rain. One of my big pet peeves is people who refuse to walk from the car into the grocery store when it is raining. The driver will drop them off in front of the store and just sit there, causing a huge back-up in the parking lot. Get over it. It is only water. You do take showers, don't you?
At work today my toe was feeling a little bit more tingly, but after the attempted blister surgery it is not feeling quite as tingly. I really do think that blister is putting some pressure on a nerve that is causing that sensation. I'm going to ask the massage therapist about it tomorrow. The problem is that our company dropped our health insurance (without informing us!) and getting any kinds of tests will be quite costly. If it doesn't go away in another week I'll think about getting it looked at. The problem is not in the treatment, it is in the testing.
Hope that everyone has great weekends!
