Another tired Tuesday
Tuesday, September 20th, 2011 11:40 pmDid I write about Sunday? I don't remember anything about Sunday. I assume that this week did begin with a Sunday, as weeks generally do, but I'm drawing a blank on what I might have done. Oh, now I remember: I rested most of the day, then did some evening grocery shopping.
Monday: Another day of mostly rest. I had hoped to do some cleaning, but my body said otherwise, although I did eventually find energy enough to donate a book to the library (Geneen Roth's Women Food and God, which wasn't my kind of thing and which the library should be able to sell for twice as much as I paid for it) and go to a store to buy the eggs I hadn't bought on Sunday. In the evening, while trying to move a vase to a place where it wouldn't rattle so much every time a housemate came running up the stairs, I bumped a small bottle of essential oils onto the floor. So I ended the day by scrubbing the floor where the oils (a refreshing blend of rosemary, eucalyptus, and peppermint) had splashed and throwing out bits of broken bottle. Went to sleep fairly exhausted.
Tuesday: Another day of not cleaning a darn thing. Feeling as tired and grey as the overcast sky. Spent part of the day napping, waiting for the tree that was making noise all afternoon to just fall already. Spent another part of the day finishing a library book (T.C. McCarthy's Germline, military SF--emphasis on the military with a side order of drug addiction). In the evening, I went out to do more food shopping because I was already out of yogurt, chocolate, and Russian Caravan tea. (While I was out, blue patches began to appear in the sky, and soon the sky was a pattern of blue and pale gold.) I should be able to last until Thursday without going out to buy more food, which is good since tomorrow looks like another rainy day.
Oh, and somewhere between nine and ten p.m., a big chunk of tree finally fell onto the back porch. There may be more planning to come down, but that bit that fell was the bit I was concerned about.
Wednesday: Here's hoping I'll find some energy to do more cleaning or de-cluttering of this room. It might help if I try to go to sleep soon, I suppose. Please wish me luck!
