Well, things got accomplished today...
We went to a home improvement store and ordered a new clothes dryer. Finally! My visits to the laundromat will be considerably diminished in frequency. It's going to be delivered Wednesday. We also got a new floor lamp for the livingroom (where it is dark because the old lamp broke) and a new iron, a Rowenta but not the most expensive one. Saw a lot of lovely things, such as a Fiestaware toaster and nice lamps. When the livingroom is in better shape, in a month or so, we are getting new furniture, and when the whole house is in shape, a dog. (
Then we went to Target, where I picked up a couple of tshirts to replace the one I need to return, as well as some summer pajamas (pale blue pointelle shorts and tank with lace trim) and some socks, and my mom bought a small stereo for her room (which she didn't need... we have like 3-4 other stereo systems in the house... but I guess she wanted something very small)... I know we picked up other things we needed, some of them mind-numbingly dull, but I can't remember what else we got there overall. I know that we went for lightbulbs for the new lamp.
Came home, ate chicken soup with rice.
That has pretty much been my day.
I don't feel well at all today... exhausted and achy. Fever seems to have gone down. I'm sleepy. Sometimes I wonder... how do other people, people who are well, feel in their skin? Am I really just normal and other people are braver or more perseverant (or have more stamina or motivation) than me?
I have no reference for this. I've never been anyone but me.
All I know is that everything hurts and I've spent the whole day wanting to curl up and go back to bed, and that in a more general sense I feel at least under the weather when I'm not just-plain-*sick* (with a cold or flu or stomach bug - that is, a recognizable illness on top of my general miasma of not-well-being). I have days when I feel really good, and I haven't been having many of them lately.
I was talking to Autumn a few minutes ago, now I'm talking to Ragdoll. I'm exhausted and my ears are popping a lot. I think I'm going to get into my pajamas and hit the sack.
