Today felt busy for some reason. I’m not sure why. I did have a doctor’s appointment early this afternoon, but other than that I had nothing else that absolutely had to get done. By the time we got home it was already almost supper time! Then I played twister with the kids and after supper we went on a “Pokemon Go”walk. This is pretty crazy! It’s probably one of the only times that they were the ones who wanted to go! There were no eye rolls or sighs – it wasn’t even my idea!! So weird! It’s pretty slow walking through. When everyone has their phone out and are mainly focused on the phone, not where or how fast their walking. Still, I almost reached 10,000 steps by the end of the day!  

I guess I need to call my pharmacy back tomorrow. I just got 3 months worth of refills for my prescriptions from my doc. However, when I was taking the bottles out to get ready for bed I noticed each bottle only has 10 pills in it and they all say “no refills” on them. What a pain! Now I need to figure out who messed up, either the pharmacy or my doc. I made sure I’d have enough for when I’m away next week (yay ‼️yay‼️ yay‼️). I don’t want to be in another country running out of meds…that’d sure suck! I can’t bring my medicinal marijuana with me, because, even though I have a prescription for it here, it isn’t allowed and I could get in big trouble. This makes me really nervous because I use it every night before bed, it helps me fall asleep tremendously!! Really!! It’s like night and day difference in ability to fall asleep!! I also often use the lower THC ones during the day for pain! Well, I can’t be doing that down there!! I’m hoping that I feel okay and that I am somehow able to sleep! Jocelyn,another Beachbody coach from Edmonton that I know, said that you basically go from 6-8am until 11:00 at night (or even later…). So, I’m hoping it makes me tired enough to fall asleep at night. Also, it worries me a bit, because if I really overdo it, I end up with bad pain. And, as we just covered, my main pain killer won’t even be there with me. I just have to make sure that I take a nap or rest if I need it. I have to listen to and respect what my body can and can’t do. And right now it’s telling me, or rather, screaming at me to go to bed!! So…I’m off‼️
