Day Four

What did I accomplish yesterday? I went to the mailbox and found a letter from the college which basically stated that only 1 out of 3 transcript requests came in and in addition to that I need my high school transcripts. So I called my old high school and got that request put in. I also requested for my transcripts again from the other two colleges. I also called my doctor to let them know that the pain had increased and they basically ok'd all the acetopminophen as long as I don't go over the max per day and also restated that the next time they would see me would be some time in January -_-

What am I going to accomplish today? Social Security.

Pain: It's there but I barely feel it due to the appropriate amounts of acetominophen =)

Day Three

What did I accomplish yesterday? Well I will just say that sorting through old paperwork is so damn distracting *sigh*. Still not done -_-

What am I going to accomplish today? I have decided that since there are lots of pressing things that I need to do for both starting school in January and also getting funding so that my new doctor can start all the CT and PET scans I have decided to split it up to medical stuff during the day and school stuff at night. Kinda woke up late today but I am going to go to the mailbox and see if I have any mail from the college. Also, I am going to track down all the phone numbers I will need in order to call the school/doctor's office tomorrow.

Pain update: Went up since I saw the Doc on Monday. I went from taking 500mg of Acetominophen every six hours to now taking 750mg of Acetominophen every six hours or really as needed b/c I am not supposed to go over 2000mg in one day.

Day Two

What did I accomplish yesterday? After looking online for phone numbers and such I realized that I was doing a lot of double work that I had already done during the last 6 months. So I marched myself into the other room and decided to tackle this suitcase of nothing but paperwork >.> So not happy about that! Anyway, I decided that it's better to start off organized so as to not waste more time later on looking for this paper or that when I need it in a hurry.

What am I going to accomplish today? I am going to finish going through that crap load of paperwork and hopefully be able to find out the status of my application to Social Security.

I would not be surprise if it said "You fell off the face of the earth so we assumed you died - CLAIM DENIED"
