Sunday 10/1/23

7:57a.m. I had some terrible nightmares. In one dream I was fighting with a man who had a pistol. He had me on this bed. He pointed the pistol at me and was going to kill me. I woke up screaming “help, help!” and knocked over my Kindle. Then in another dream I saw my niece Karen in a store. She was very mad at me and accused me of stealing money from my parents. This time the aides woke me up and got me in my wheelchair for the day. 

It is that damned Stephen King and Peter Straub book that is giving me nightmares. I was reading a very scary part in the book last night. Everyone is urging Jack Sawyer to help solve the Fisherman case.  He finally gets involved when the monster takes his fourth victim Tyler Marshall.But then he starts having nightmares. He sees an old friend when he was twelve Lester “Speedy”Parker.  Speedy urges Jack to take on the case and bring back Ty.

This dream seems so real to Jack. At first he doesn’t want to admit that his adventures in  The Talisman ever happened. But he “flips” Back into the Territories. He has a supernatural encounter with the monster. This was the part that scared the shit out of me and gave me nightmares.

Anyways I survived a hellish night and am above the dirt. I slept in my wheelchair for a couple hours. I talked with Chococolatechip when I woke up. She had a quiet night for the most part and was in good spirits. Chococolatechip talked about a movie she watched The Trouble with Angels. She loves that movie. It was a great one. We talked until I got my coffee and breakfast.

Breakfast was kind of skimpy. I had toast,scrambled eggs and oatmeal. I was hungry so I ate it all. I’m a bit bloated now. On a scale of one to five the pain level is a one. 

I talked with the nurse last night about getting bloated all the time. I said lunch made me sick all afternoon. I couldn’t eat supper. She said she will talk with the nurse practitioner. This morning I was on a new med . It is supposed to help with the bloated feeling. 

Well that’s about it for now. I’m going to read my book. God help me I love these authors Stephen King and Peter Straub. 

3:32p.m. I have been in bed sick all day I had a bad case of diarrhea in the morning. Then lunch didn’t agree with me. I became very painfully bloated. On a scale of one to five the pain level was a five. So I’ve been sleeping and resting a lot instead of reading. I hope !y stomach settles down so I can read tonight. 

I’ve been talking with Chococolatechip a lot while awake. She is kind of worried about getting to her CMP appointment for her Abilify shot. They are pa ing the parking lot  Monday. She plans on walking to the bus stop in front of the library. Then she plans on going to !Rogers for some much needed groceries.. So tomorrow will be a big day.

I just got my afternoon meds not too long ago These included varafate. Tylenol and Mylanta. I think my stomach is settling down. Still I do not feel ?ikr eating supper tonight. 

8:33p.m. I had some kind of sandwich potato for supper. It didn’t make me bloated or sick I started to read my book book Black House. I read for over 2 1/2 hrs. I finished four chapters. I’d like to read more but I’m very tired. I think I’ll call it a night
