So i got a call from my boss, and the girl i trained to cover for me over my days off didnt do all of the work that she was trained to do, so tomorrow i get to go in and i essentially have 3 days worth of work to do 

Thank you to those who commented on my last blog. I havent had much time at all to come online in the last few days. Today is my day off, so hopefully i can unwind a bit.
On Tuesday, my coworker worked her last day, and it hit me very hard. She was my only friend there, and with the stress of her leaving, and...

Live to fight another day my friend. There is no shame in what you're doing. It's actually very smart.

The chemos not so bad. It's the after effects. It's the 3 day long nausea and sleeping and just feeling dead.
But it's the price I pay. I will beat this.
Nothing wrong with living at home till you're ready and able to move. Guy I worked with stayed home till he got married. I stayed home till I had enough money to buy a house.
Don't be ashamed. BE proud that your parents are as supportive as they are. Thats a blessing in this day and age.

I actually broke down and cried tonight. From stress. I only got 1 1/2 hour of free time to myself today. The rest was devoted to work and sleep. And that's how I see my next few weeks going. God dammit I've ruined my life and it feels like there's no way to fix anything. I just feel like I'm in so deep that I...

I also don't have much anything to say that's comforting because your blog describes my general emotional state on a daily basis.

I know what it's like to feel unable to voice personal feelings with family.
I'm glad you do have SG as a safe place to vent.

I'm actually considering taking stress leave from work.
I'm working 10-12 hour days, and i may end up working 6 days a week soon. I'm having trouble sleeping

thanks
i hate when this happens to business. ive been making up for a full 40-hr/week person not being present in the pharmacy for weeks now and I feel like shooting myself at the end of each shift. hopefully, this too shall pass.

well, in FL you have to be certified to work as a tech. When I was a tech, you didn't need to have that certification, but now you need to pass a test (which is a few hundred dollars) and take a certification course beforehand (which the university is doing for $3k!!!)
it really is so expensive and even afterwards you make $8-$16/hr. nothing that great considering the amount of work you have to do. the good thing is you are a valued member of the community (pharmacy tech carries some weight of respect with it) and there are always job openings. well... i take it back. its worth it if you are a tech. you help people, you are air conditioned, get lunch breaks, and get respect. not worth it if you are a lead tech, which comes with a little raise but infinitely more responsibility.
i think within a month, it becomes worth it. not years. i remember being a tech, not having that much of a responsibility as I do now, and those were the days... the pay just sucks.

Night before last, my dad was taken from work in an ambulance with chest pains, and they admitted him, and kept him over night, and again overnight last night.
They kept him as mainly precautionary measures, as he was feeling better later in the night that it happened. But they wanted to run tests all day yesterday.
So, i dont think they know what caused...

I'm so sorry for the loss of your kitty

400 bucks of happiness as opposed to, say, one of those credit card hookers that only give you an hour.
Still dont know what is wrong with me exactly, but each day is different. Some days im in pain, other days im "fine", and others, im really out of it, and cant seem to focus on anything
I dont have medical insurance at the moment, because my work charges WAY too much for it.
So i have to start looking into independent medical insurance
But...
