lj is on today...yay!
i got up around 9 after about 12 hours of sleep and/or rest and i'm already tired again. anyway,i went to the library to get help from aarp,bless 'em,with my taxes. i was thinking i might not have to file,but since i get easily confused,i wanted to confirm it. i was right. so that was easy. social security disability and $1,200/yr from long term disabilty equals no tax paying,not even any tax filing. the nice helpful woman did ask me twice if i got any income from investments...heeheehee....that's funny.
anyway,i was relieved to have that done,or not need to be done,and i picked up things waiting for me at the library...annotated sherlock holmes-the novels,including study in scarlet edition (from what i've read so far i'm amazed at what they did with sherlock bbc! brilliant!) and stephen fry's bio 'moab is my washpot'. i think he has a newer bio out,but i got the first one through interlibrary loan. oops,i meant to borrow the 'dummies guide to tai chi' but forgot.
i borrowed joan aiken's 'wolves of willoughby chase' and a guide to young adult books,so i can avoid the ones that i might find annoying. also,two issues of people.
feel a little bit better than yesterday,but took a tylenol for head.
i missed 'big bang theory' last night because i didn't realize it was on monday nights. well,i'm not a regular,i guess.
i've still got some doctor who david tennant/catherine tate to watch,and i want to rewatch the first seasons of matt/karen/arthur.
i've been playing around on tumblr and pinterest lately. my sims isn't working. calling about a replacement disc is on my to do list,but there are more important things,like shopping for a new hot water heater,that i must do first. and calling about why my food stamps keep shrinking,as the price of food goes up. my therapist thinks there must be some kind of mistake,but probably not. i also called about getting a case worker to help me out with depression and med stuff...she said it was mostly for severely mentally ill folks. well,to me being schizophrenic seems more serious than depression,but either one CAN kill you in the right circumstance. i just know my depression is sucking up oodles of energy. so we'll see.
and now it's time to eat. i'm cutting down on sweets,which will save money and make me feel worse,at least initially. hard to say for long term. probably would do better without it,but it is such a good short term pick me up. i'm reading a book saying all carbs are bad,by i think everyone is different. years ago i stopped eating meat and started eating more carbs and i lost a lot of weight and had more energy. everyone is different,and i also think we ourselves change,which sure makes it challenging to eat well. especially when your brain and body want different things!
well,enough rambling for now. i think rambling does help me in some way,so what the heck!

i don't shop much either. i like pinterest for the pictures,but i like tumblr better,because i'm not just interested in products. i hardly ever buy stuff! don't have much extra cash...i'm on ss disability. sorry,didn't mean to whine...i always end up doing that! bleh. ha.
