early-morning frenzy
I've been up since about four this morning, and my aim was to do things that make me feel better about myself. Part of what makes me feel good is being productive and active. So far today, I've...
-walked 1.25 miles on the treadmill
-scooped three cat boxes
-took out three bags of trash
-cleaned my bathroom from top to bottom--including cleaning under the sink and scrubbing the toilet
I've sustained a steady, natural buzz and a mild chemical burn on one finger. After I shave and shower and get all prettied up for work, I plan on doing some sewing on another quilt I've been working on, and maybe doing some writing. After work, I'd like to see my Davey, if he's available. I have tomorrow off, so I guess I could use that to proofread or read or whatever.
School either starts this week or next week. I'm watching my online classes like a hawk.
As a sidenote, seeing as how I'm gun-shy about seeing a professional therapist and adamant against taking more pills, I've joined an online support group called isurvive. My account hasn't been activated yet, so I can't post, but I've been able to read what other people have to say. Even that little bit so far is very comforting. Hopefully when I can get the ball rolling, some real healing can begin.
