When things didn't go as planned..

Another day has almost come to an end. How's your day? Did it turn out as you planned or go the other way around? Mine was the latter. But before I go into detail, let me start with how my day started.

Just as usual, I woke up as early as 6 in the morning. It was the alarm that I set last night that woke me up, not my body clock. I need to take medicine, that's why.  I should take my medicine four times a day: at 6 in the morning, 12 in the afternoon, 6 in the evening, and 12 at midnight. Sometimes, my husband has to wake me up at midnight for me to take my medicine because, no matter how long the alarm sounds, I still sound asleep, sometimes drooling! 

So after taking my medicine, I went back to sleep and woke up around seven thirty. And when I woke up, my breakfast was already served. My husband or sometimes my daughter had to prepare our breakfast because it was hard for me to prepare it for them because I felt so sleepy always. 

It's because I didn't get decent sleep at night. I wake up from time to time to suction out the phlegm in my tracheostomy. It is so bothersome that sometimes I just let it accumulate until such time that I can no longer breathe. Just imagine you were sound asleep, then suddenly you had to wake up to suction. Ugh! 

So to make a long story short, my breakfast was already served when I woke up. 

I was supposed to have my checkup today because of the cough and cold, but like I mentioned in the first part of this article, it didn't happen. Yesterday, our water line was suddenly cut off, although the bill is supposed to be due on the 28th of this month.

I was so annoyed, and so was my husband. So we have decided to cancel my checkup and use the money to pay the water bill instead. I told my husband to go straight to customer service and complain about what happened, and according to him, they did not let him pay the reconnection fee because of the shortcomings on their part. They said that the personnel got confused by the names, so our line was cut instead of our neighbor's. I don't know how it happened, but it happened.

Anyway, now we have our water supply back. And I am so happy; you know how stressful it is to have no water supply. I immediately took a bath and washed the dishes, and my husband cleaned our garage. 

So let me know how your day went..
