Oct. 8th, 2015 11:15 amYesterday, I had nausea after the morning dose of Bactrim, but I haven't really today. I have my fingers crossed that it doesn't come back. I had Scott pick up some ginger tea, just in case, and I'm having some of that now. I'm not enthusiastic about the flavor. It's Harney & Sons, and it looked promising because it has actual chunks of ginger. It might taste better if I sweetened it, I suppose. I just don't find that necessary with the kind of ginger tea I'm used to. The other ginger tea Scott got is actually a black tea with ginger flavoring, so I don't expect it to do much to settle my stomach.
The guy from the heating company just arrived. I'm glad they managed to get us in this week because I'd hate to try to schedule it for later. I'm just not entirely happy because I would like to be napping right now. I've not been sleeping well. I haven't gotten back to sleep after Scott's 5:10 alarm since last Friday. That means I've been getting about five hours of sleep a night. It's a wonder I'm not doing worse than I am.
I'm trying to fit in my various library DVDs today. I'm not sure I'll succeed because one of the ones I have left is multi-DVD set, an entire 24 episode season of an anime. Right at the moment I can renew it, but that would mean a mid-week return, and that's not desirable. Maybe when I try it, I won't care for it and can return it right away.
The radiation oncology people scheduled me a surprise appointment in December. The first I knew about it was the message I got telling me to check the patient portal. The appointments were for 12:45 and 1:00 on the 22nd. Cordelia's dental appointment is at 1:00 on the 22nd, and I'm not interested in rescheduling that again. For some reason, they didn't think it was important to give me a phone number to call if I had questions or needed to reschedule. I ended up having to call the hospital operator and get transferred. I would have thought that a contact number would be basic information. At any rate, I've rescheduled to a week later. This is apparently for some sort of research study, and I did say I was interested in doing those. I didn't expect to get tapped, though. I would like more information than that, so I hope the papers they send me contain something useful.
I started a new book last night. GoodReads recommended it to me as a comic mystery, but I'm not actually finding it funny. It's readable, but it's not fun in the way the blurb suggested it would be. I'm also more than 50 pages in with no sign of actual plot, just background and character stuff.
