10-Minute Warning XLV

Today my family and I needed to wake up and prepare early so we can get our 2nd COVID-19 booster shot early. And man… I want to go back to bed. I only have 5 hours of sleep. But I need to get the booster shot, so I drank some strong coffee to wake myself up.

Fast-forward to checking my blood pressure (BP) before getting the booster shot, the assigned doctor noticed that my BP is high and I need to wait for 10 minutes to calm myself and then have my BP checked again. I suddenly regret drinking that cup of black coffee. Stupid DW.

I would like to expound on what happened to my COVID-19 vaccination today, but right now I want to sleep more than 5 hours.

Until next time.

10-Minute Warning XXXI

So, what can I share here in under 10 minutes?

What a tiring day. I woke up before 8am, and it was a forceful wake-up. But I had to wake up and do my morning routine quickly to join Mother and Father on their weekly visit to a significant client. After the said visit, I tried to take a nap in the car – something that I always fail at. (I have never had a satisfying car nap.)

The sleepy feeling somehow went away after having fried rice and dumplings for lunch. While we were eating, I found out that Mother and Father had a hard time sleeping last night. It looks like we are all having a good afternoon nap later… but I didn’t. At least my parents got their nap after coming home, and I’m happy for them.

As I type this, it’s exactly 11pm. The more I type this, the more I become sleepy. It’s weird because I haven’t taken my medicine yet. And speaking of medicine, I skipped my meds again last night because I ran out of them. I still feel a bit shitty after more than a week, and now I’m worried I will feel worse. Oops.

Let me sleep now.

10-Minute Warning XVII

OK. What can I type here in under 10 minutes?

This morning, I feel sleepier than usual. Mother noticed that, so in order to be awake, she told me to start working on this month’s billings. I also took a long, cold bath and 1 cup of extra strong coffee to power through the day. I’m done with the 1st part of the billings, so I took an afternoon nap after.

What else? I checked the photos I took from my younger brothers’ gig last Friday. I’m so disappointed that most of their photos – taken by my smartphone – are not clear. I’m also disappointed that I did not check the photos sooner. Damn it. I will take better photos and videos with my smartphone and DSLR next time.

Tonight I will jog again and Younger Brother will do his calisthenics at Three Trees. But I think I should do more than just jog. Last year I followed this aerobics workout on YouTube, and it helped me burn a lot of fat. Maybe I should do both jogging and aerobics again.

And time’s up.
