I had a really rough night. Hopefully today gets better. I don't really have any plans. My clinician is coming over this afternoon. Might go for a walk.

Has anyone watched The Americans? That's my new show. I'm up to season 4. I should really do something about the house though.

So yesterday at good ole ChuckeCheese, we got around like 900 something tickets. The guy was nice enough to round it up to 1000 for the prize. DS chose a 2pk of these Star Wars planes. I looked it up, it's like a 10-15 buck toy. Not too shabby. At first, he was looking at the tiny crap & showed interest in those party horns that roll out & we told him yo, you could get a toy off the wall this time. The guy ended up giving him one anyway. Cool. So we're leaving & he goes to the bathroom with dh with the darn horn. They come out. DH says while blowing it, he was biting it. He was telling him don't do that but him being the sensory seeking kid that he his wouldn't stop, cracked it & was pissed it wouldn't make the noise when the thing popped out anymore. So cue throwing a fit majority the ride home. O___o Dude. You have this awesome other toy we worked over an hour to score, doesn't care. He just wants this stupid horn. Just utter craziness up in here.

My wrist and fingers are hurting and stiff today. Actually, it's been this way for several days and I've been taking Aleve but only helps for a little while. If it keeps up I'll have to throw in the towel and go to the doctor. It doesn't help that DH volunteered me to go garden picking with DD after school. I had zero interest to go before, but now I think it'll just make my hands worse and me miserable. It's like I'm a 35 year old with arthritis.

You've got my sympathy. Can you just let your dd do the picking and monitor?

It's my Friday also! I kept trying to convince H to take this Friday off so we could all have a four day weekend together, but apparently he's too busy and important. But I also have a MASSIVE pile of laundry and a bunch of chores to catch up on at home from being gone last week/weekend, and honestly sometimes it's easier to get shit done when it's just me and DS home on Fridays, as opposed to when H is home the rest of the weekend.

I might 😉 Carpal tunnel is a possibility, but I've also been told I could develop psoratic arthritis because about half of patients with psoriasis eventually have arthritis associated with the disorder.

I ordered The Bad Guys: Attack of the Zittens for DD. It's book #4 in a series and she really likes them. It reads like a graphic novel but for young children. She's been waiting for this one since it was released this week.

LED and @threegiraffes, hope you both get some relief soon. @threegiraffes, definitely try to take it easy as much as possible with the gardening. I have osteoarthritis and some other joint issues, so some other ideas that may or may not help depending on your specific issues: try to favor other fingers, try out different angles of your hand/fingers/wrist or different directions of motions when you do use the sore joints (to change how forces are applied), buddy wrap fingers (near base or near tips or both depending on need), etc.

I need to do some stuff around the house, but it is so nice out that I just want to cuddle with LO on the porch swing.

It's so fall like today. No more pool I think this year DS has a soccer game about a half hour away tonight. My mom is picking up the dog afterwards. DS and I leave tomorrow after school for our mini trip with my brother and his family. SO is so sad that he has to work and will miss going. I'm excited for a couple days away. I start back to school full time on Tuesday eek!

I'll be home alone for the entire day tomorrow!! I don't even know when the last time was...
Too bad I'll spend most of it cleaning & packing.
