08 October 2015

Finished the door yesterday but drying times because of the cool weather made it take 2x as long as it really should have. Priming the hallway today and will paint the ceiling, then trim, then do color tomorrow most like.

Feeling tired as 3 am aching proceeded and that is draining. sometimes the worst time of the day for me is in bed during the winter. *sighs*

Took a short walk this morning to deliver my daughter's notebook and textbook to her because she forgot them. But forgot to change my shoes before I hurried out the door so kept it short to avoid blisters. Maybe if I am feeling more energetic I will get some walking back into the rhythm of things I am just so focused on finishing what needs doing for the reno.

No sign of my contractor yet. I hope he makes it before tomorrow as it is supposed to rain all day and that means tracking on my new floors and I have a sand driveway. Oh well, I cannot control that so will just hope he makes it sooner rather than later.

Wow well the tiling and grouting are finito! TG That is another hard job off the list. Today I will continue working on the Door so that it can be rehung. and maybe some painting touch ups.

I also have a hair appointment. Speaking of hair... I am still experiencing hair loss. I am taking hair, nail, & skin formula vitamin supplements and still this is happening. I am seeing new growth, but seem to be losing faster than gaining. I have also been using Nioxin which usually helps when I have had this happen in the past. It is frustrating. I am hoping after all the stresses I have been through lately that once the reno is finished I get back into a less stressful state and that helps. It is the one thing that will change once it is done. Getting back into a better routine will also help. It could also be caused by the HRT I am on right now and have been for the past year. That really sucks it if is that. Something I will talk to my stylist and my Dr about. But weight loss, medications, stress and many other things can cause hair loss. This much I know and I have been on all those paths which makes it hard to narrow down the culprit. :/

But less pain today and I feel better. Still have some issues sleeping in the middle of the night, hoping for that to improve.

Well, Ty (DS) is feeling much better after getting the irritant removed from his eye and the antibiotic eye drops he was given have him good as new and had no complaints this morning. So today is off to a good start.

We still managed even with a late start to get the tile all laid and now I am waiting a few more hrs so that we hit 16 hrs curing time so that I can grout. That will take a few hours then I also get to paint the last radiator which i have already cleaned and start priming and painting the door that I have been working on refinishing. Then If all of this is done tomorrow maybe I can start on the priming of the hall. also hoping contractor will be out tomorrow or thursday to install my baseboards in the LR so I can putty sand and paint them and then we can install the rest of the radiators!!! Yay. We are getting there we may get to move into the LR by the end of the weekend and have heat finally!!!!

A serious upswing and lightening of my mood to be sure. I have missed meds and supplements the past few days and that is never good. Because my hot flashes have been horrendous without my meds. I keep them in my desk and after painting myself out of the hall that leads there one day and tiling so I could not walk on it the next it meant I just had to suffer through. I did take everything this morning. So, that is also another good thing. I swear I have been off the past few weeks not posting and generally feeling more morose than is usual for me. I know I have been super busy too but maybe it it the weather hitting the downswing on temps that make the aching i get in cool weather or all the stress from reno/business/kids getting to me. Probably a combination. I need to get this reno done and we are getting really close. Heat will help me get through the day even if I have to sleep in cold at night.

Down a little today and did not have time for much but keeping busy yesterday and today will be more hands and knees work.

Still tired and achy and it is still cold but moderately better today. But the start to the morning is not good. Ty took a walk and got something in his eye and i think it is probably a corneal abrasion or along that line. He woke in a lot of pain and discomfort. It is not Pink eye because there is not crust of infection just a lot of pain and watering. Ibuprofen has made it tolerable for him to get through the weekend and avoid the ER which would be 5x the cost of going to dr's office as it is automatically $500 co-pay to walk into the ER. I am really struggling to see how this ACA is affordable but what can u do? So, I will be calling Dr's office at 8 am and getting him in. I hope the appt is for midday because I just painted the floor in the all that needs tiled with a waterproofing sealer as this room actually gets wetter than my BR floor after the kids have been in it.

First coat was mostly cured to step on in an hour and we are hoping to lay tile this afternoon as the shop is closed and we cannot walk on this floor for 16-24 hours after it is laid. only 3x 12 so should not even be. too many cuts. But it needs a few hours to dry so I can walk on the sealer. And dummy me forgot my breakfast and tea in the main part of the house. SMH... I can go out the business door and in the other door and hop over the corner of stuff painted. But talk about a blonde start for the day. SMH...

Think I have myself more or less back on track as I am showing a small loss this morning. Pain is still there but I slept better though not great. Hot flashes last night were bad making me toss the covers off but not enough to chill me and make is hard to fall back asleep. I cannot wait for this perimenopause thing to end.

This weekend was homecoming and I have pics of DD and her BF and the finished LR floor for you today.
