I'm doing better today. A lot less anxious, now I'm just tired and foggy.
I got some sleep last night- not great sleep. It was about 6 hours of disjointed, interrupted, weird sleep, but it was better than nothing. I think that helped.
Also a huge help was getting some of the anxiety exasperating stuff done. I got Monkey over to the Public Health office to get the immunization that I found out yesterday he had to have before Friday for a field trip. I got the shoe inserts that we decided to try out and see if they help some heel pain he's been having (when I had heel pain in the same place it was because I'd injured an arch and it needed extra support for a while). The inserts are helping, so that's good. I found a stupid picture that my brain latched onto as being absolutely necessary to see again. I picked up the breakfast waffles and orange juice that we'd run out of, got Monkey and Pixie to their meetings (flipped out a little when I found out that Brienna's dues went up from $2 a week to $3 a week), and got everyone back home, and homework checked, and the house picked up, and laundry folded.
I was exhausted at the end of it, but less anxious. Then, just as the kids went to bed and I was planning on just letting myself have a good cry, J called to say he was coming home early because he had a headache.
So, no cry for me.
Ha, I filled him in on the all the running around and getting stuff done I did yesterday and he said "Have I told you lately that you're amazing?"
I just looked at him and said, "No. And in fact, the last time I pointed out that I'd dome something amazing (the yard), you said it wasn't."
"Oh," he says. "Well, you are amazing."
And I'm like, whatev.
