corvaxgirlAt first, the mundanity of being home was delightful. Mmmmm beeeeeeeeeed! Mmmmmm, grocery store! Mmmmmmm, dry cleaners! How quaint! How novel!
Now I'm settling into a sort of blah. I'm still exhausted from all the uppers and downers over the weekend (oh settle down, I don't even drink caffeine usually so "upper" for me constitutes caffeine and a five hour energy shot and "downer" is booze and my regularly prescribed pills) and while R. was a sweetheart and always made sure we ate and drank water, I suspect I should have had more of both. Also 6 hours of sleep over 2 nights isn't really my usual (usually I sleep 8.5-10 hours a night like a toddler for the fibro).
I feel really lazy right now and I am currently being simultaneously scolded by both J^1 and J^2 (RECOIL IN JEALOUSY MONOGOMOUS PEOPLE!).
A list for all of you of what I have been doing this week so far:
* Ded on Monday, nothing. Made dinner with Jow, made gravy from scratch
* Work, Grocery shopping, trip to home depot, trip to verizon store, programming my new phone with the address book ( . . .don't ask), dry cleaners, made dinner, dished with April on Tuesday
* Work, attempted to get car inspected ( . . .don't ask), worked on pill forms, made dinner, packed Jow's and my bento on Wed
* Today so far by noon: work, more pill forms, and chased my mail around some more ( . . .don't ask)
I have started to day dream about jam and yarn spinning (which I will be doing on Friday!). I have these tiny spurts of energy where I'll want to do . . .something and then lose energy. I'm trying to remind myself that most normal human beings go to work, make dinner, watch tv, and get ready for the next day and call it done but I'm so used to also crafting/writing/treadmilling/yoga/socializing/etc/etc that I feel like a complete slacker following the usual american paradigm.
I think today I will try to write for my website because I want unveil it and it's something I could conceivably pump out after work and feel complete about it. James and I have plans to go to a local health restaurant for dinner and I can play some scrabble to try to make my brain go and maybe start sewing dollies again.
What I have learned from this month: While it has been omg awesome (NYE party! GoG Yemaya Beach Run! Arisia! My birthday this weekend!), I can't run like this anymore. I *need* at least one day "off" in a weekend and I haven't really been doing that. Usually I manage to have a day doing nothing on the weekend and then a free day during the week, but I've been jam packing it and I'm starting to get burnt out on it. So, I'm going to be more mindful in the coming months about this.
What are you currently procrastinating doing?
