Mirette came to visit me last night, we had a sleepover.
I slept well. I had a dream where I met my beloved pet guinea pig, and got to hold him in my hands and pet his soft fur and listen to him purring. Sometimes I miss him so much it hurts, and it’s very sad when you think about the fact that there might not be an afterlife, that I never get to see him again.
This morning I got up about at ten o’clock, even if I was awake earlier. I took my morning medicine, drank coffee, cooked a bowl of oatmeal porridge for breakfast, took a shower and washed my hair, got dressed, brushed my teeth, right in this order.
I went out for errands; I mailed two formal letters, bought a new pair of sunglasses, went to the local pharmacy to pick up my prescribed medicine, and then I traveled east and went to the passport office to get rid of my expired passport.
Once back home, I had lunch.
My HoivaOnni worker came for the weekly appointment, Mirette left soon after. I washed the dishes and ironed the laundry.
We agreed to have a new appointment at the same time next week. I left at the same time with the worker, and went to the gym.
I did some stretches, and then I worked out according to the advice on Pinterest. After I was done, I was breathing heavily and sweating, and I barely felt the burn in my muscles. But then again, I am just a beginner, it might take a while before I see, feel, and hear the effect.
Once back home, I put on my bathrobe, washed my gym gear along with a load of laundry, and washed two soup bowls I had set to soak in the kitchen basin because they had some crumbs of food stuck in them.
I had tomato- lentil soup for dinner.
I started doing spring cleaning; that is, looking for stuff to give away to charity.
I took my evening medicine, and then I went to bed. I looked for pins about exercising and working out on Pinterest.
I don’t feel anxious or panicky or depressed, but I feel out of focus and hyperactive. I guess I should cut down the coffee consumption.
Now I’ll just wait until the medicines start to kick in, and then I’ll go to sleep.
Tomorrow will be a busy day; I will go to Twinkle café, my mom will be there as well. She will give me the weekly allowance.
After the café, I will go to a library in Helsinki for the knitting & novel reading group, then I will go to the gym and do stretches and posture exercise, and after that, I will walk on the treadmill for an hour.
I will buy enough food to serve me until Friday. I must also stock up on hygiene products and buy greeting cards, and a new binder for all my papers.
