Woke Up Better
I have no heart for this tonight.
But my pain is reduced, I could sleep om my left side for the 1st time in a week, and Lefty and Saki woke up comfortably on either side of me, happy to get morning belly rubs and head pats.
What is good right now? The smell of the gardenia on my desk that Laurie gave me to spruce up my desk bound work environment, the contentment from the dogs that flank me-Saki and Lefty, the knowledge that I can eat dinner and try to watch a movie and go to bed early.
Today? Well I did what I set out to do on a Sunday morning, including wearing my glasses down to glimpse into my neighbors papers to see my horoscope, as the ad free sacred concert played on the radio upstairs, only to be caught by my neighbor Andy, who reads this, followed by a lovely moment on the doorstep together, laughing at my outed ritual.
Otherwise a full day of fulfilling commitments here at the desk. I want to get away from the desk, and after my post from last night, I really don’t want to think about me, or any of you. I want to sit and eat and watch TV.
It was hot today and it was a successful day in Lise’s admin world. Saki, my visiting dog, did not whine at me at 6am or have diarrhea, I got some good work done, and I am half prepared for the week. And I feel like I want to go now.
I am teaching three classes from 9am -10pm tomorrow, all three hour classes. I expect I will have some fun, and I know I will make some money, but I don’t know if I will be able to blog.
So pardon me if I am silent tomorrow.
I swear, even in a boring day there is so much to tell, and it comes down to my energy level and what I can, and can not say. Would this be the same in a “Dear Diary”?
But would I write a “Dear Diary’?
Hey Ingrid, give me a call if you are reading this, I miss you.
