fell asleep with stains cake deep in the knees

Distracted by dishwasher retrieval logistics, so didn’t get to these pages until now, even though I’ve been quasi awake since 5 a.m. I say quasi because I feel like a Zombie this morning. Come lunch it’s supposed to be a winter wonderland around here.

Yesterday I hated the world. I couldn’t bring myself to write morning pages, because it would have been pure mental flotsam and jetsam and no one wants to see that, let alone read it. I hermited myself until 3 p.m. when making coin was required and I had to go teach and then mentor and then see my daughter’s choir concert. If that was not required of me, I would have hermited myself further. Today I’m feeling less anti-social, but I am still not in the mood for people. Part of this is that I’m having huge problems with Bean. Which I will detail in the journal dedicated to that miraclebean. I just haven’t been able to “relive” it as it is so painful and crazy-making. But I will. Suffice to say, he’s going through huge med changes (from a cocktail of 8 components to just 3), and he’s having a rough time, which means he’ll do his best (not maliciously or purposefully…his brain doesn’t work that way) to make sure everyone else is having a rough time. It’s also why commitments I made to help with out-of-valley friends and the #occupy movement have gone undone. I cannot leave him alone right now. As it was in the pouring rain on Wednesday I was searching for him on the trails, because he’d skipped school. Not good. As often as I have thought lately about putting stones in my pockets and walking into the Snoqualmie, you can imagine, what I thought he might be doing. My nightmares incarnate.

This morning he seems calmer. Perhaps the storm has passed? I do not know. But it’s left an extra-high pile of work for me because I’ve been dealing with him.

I spent my remaining time yesterday pressed up against my WIP. I made some breakthroughs and therefore expect massive word count today.
