Medicated depression, day #152

Woke up early today, got roughly 5 hours of sleep.

Son was up already and made me coffee, now 1 cup in, I'm feeling tired and had really itchy eyes. Son left for some activity today, going to some beach on an island with youth club, they needed permission from me so I called them yesterday to give them a verbal "ok".

Contemplating horizontal position, doze off for a few hours. I have plenty of podcasts to catch up on, some of them are like sleeping pills.

Wife still away, half time on Sunday, which means another two weeks before she's back home.

Got the new doctors note yesterday, I'm on sick leave until July 31st, with a doctors appointment on July 30th .. to sync and/or extend. I'm not sure about how I would feel at that time, but right now my brain is scrambled, though haven't attempted any real-work activities since end of May, when I was supposed originally to be back at work, that turned out less-than-ideal .. actually, to at all good.

Source of irritation: Firefox updated this morning, it threw away all my tabs, really annoying. Since I decided not to use Chrome any longer, I miss a few nice-to-have functions, the tab grouping .. sure, Firefox has similar functionality .. I haven't got to that yet, just pinned tabs. Also, it jumped back to some saved state, dating several weeks ago.

Some stress onset, logging on to government web site to find doctors note and download it, browse further and see that compensation form is full of questions about this and that .. managed to fill it out. The compensation application takes about 30 days to process, so maybe done in the middle of next month.

Later: the itchyness in my eyes went away after a quick shower, it was really sticky gunk I washed away. I'll go rest for a bit now.
