After a long and sleepless night, a peanut butter sandwich,
and two cups of leftover coffee warmed up in the microwave, I am finally
functioning. I spent part of the night attempting to convince Mom that we could
not leave the house in the middle of the night. Mom was restless and had dreams
about going some place. I do not know where she wanted to go because she would
not tell me.
I am not sure Mom knew where she wanted to go; she just knew
she wanted to go somewhere. I gave her a pill about midnight to calm her down.
After Mom went to sleep, then I had to deal with my own problems. I ate
something yesterday that did not agree with me and I am not sure precisely what
it was. I am going to have to begin keeping a food diary. At least that way I will
know what foods are causing my stomach problems.
A food diary may not change the way I eat, but it will give
me an idea of the foods I have to eat less regularly. I doubt that I stop
eating the food I like, not matter what issues they cause, but I will know why
my stomach acts up and I am in pain. Of course, the problem could be something
other then food, so the next time I see my doctor I will take a list of the
symptoms, with me to the doctor. Perhaps I should also keep a list of my
emotions and stress events as well.
