Itch and Scratch

Two words that rule my life right now.  I gave in to Steroids this morning.  Been in the bathroom a little bit but the big rush will hit tonight.  It always does.  They drain almost every ounce of water out of your system.  They make me feel hot and moody but that has to be better than the misery I am in.  Talked with a gal at work she suggested Aveno Products.  She said that she loves them and got her husband to use them.  Give it a couple days and things are much better.  Well I will look into them if I am still scratching tomorrow afternoon. 

Had to work the full 8 hours but I was busy.  Technical problems abound.  Very little time to think about anything but work.  I had some breaks but they were short lived. 

I made an adjustment to the Thermostat this morning before I left and the house is doing okay.  Give it 24 hours and I should know for sure if it’s fixed.  You can’t do without heat in the winter especially when it’s bitter cold outside.  I put the electric blanket on my bed and turned it on last night.  Momma jumped up there and she loved it.  It wasn’t until she heard the pop of a can of food that she had the desire to leave.  Cats love heat for some reason. 

Junk in the mail, threw it all away at the post office.  I went to Amazon again last night got a couple of HDMI cables, that goes with my Christmas gift for my friends and one for me.  Picked up some Water Filters for the kids, some medicine for Big Boy and got some lip balm for me.  Didn’t do that much damage and the shipments are split up because they are coming from different vendors.  So it will almost feel like Christmas when they arrive.  Oh I got some Allegra Cooling Anti Itch cream.  I could sure use that today!

For some strange reason I have been really upbeat all day long.  I hope this mood lasts a while because depression was killing me.  Makes me not want to sleep because I am afraid my mood will change tomorrow. 

I polished up my profile on the on-line dating service I joined for free over the weekend.  I have answered like 900 questions, no kidding.  I answered even more and also realized that auto correct screwed up part of my profile so I fixed that.  I got a message that my profile was approved and according to their system gay guys really want me.  Yeah okay then how come no one has messaged me yet?  I took the first step tonight and reached out to the cute guy that caught my eye.  I’ve been thinking about him and looked at his profile once more before I asked him out.  The system indicates that he replies often so we shall see what he has to say.  I’m not holding my breath.

Just remembered that my mom gave me some Aveno Oatmeal Bath packets.  They are years old but right now I am desperate so short of going to the hospital I think the bath is my best bet.  The redness is gone but the itch isn’t.  When I scratch the redness comes back.  I guess now I know what momma is going through. 

If I am still in this good mood tomorrow evening I will be headed to the bar for Taco Tuesday.  It sounds really good and it’s cheap so why not.  I am so hungry right now.  I blame the steroids but usually my appetite doesn’t pick up for a couple days. 

Take care and I will talk with you peeps again soon.
