My adhd meds. The healthcare system in the US is notoriously awful, moving from one state to another while using Medicaid completely disrupts continuity of care, I can't get a regular nurse practitioner (doctors are no longer available to anyone, it seems) to prescribe a controlled substance, psychiatry clinics are booked out for months, and everyone I speak to treats me like I'm the asshole for thinking I should get to keep taking the medicine I've been prescribed that has bad withdrawal effects when you just stop.

I discovered an online service: Animo Sano. They practice in a few states, including mine. I got an appointment right away and they said they would call in the prescription as soon as I sent them my blood pressure info. I was able to late on Friday, so hopefully I will find out today that I have a prescription called in, because tomorrow is the last pill I have, and I had to do some creative stretching to make it this far.

    Taking down shelves, then filling the holes in the walls, so I can paint and make the house look presentable for when the new owner signs the paperwork

    It's a pain in the arse, but I'm getting there

    Fuck yeah!!

    I'm looking forward to new posts and reading about women I've never heard of before...and some I probably have!

    My favourite was the pirate-lady who commanded a massive fleet in the China seas, lived long enough to retire wealthy and married her step son (I could be wrong about the last bit though)

    edit, punctuation

    I finally repotted my orchid. It was very root bound - I couldn't believe how much plant came out of the small pot that it was in.

    It's now in a hanging pot that I knitted from hemp twine.
