Monday wind-down
Nov. 13th, 2023 10:07 pmWas able to get so much done today, despite my despondency.
Morning exercises.
Made Josh lunch and dinner. Washed all the dishes.
Swept the floors. Including under Josh's bed again which is a scary place to sweep, ha.
Rescued Josh when he got a flat tire. Got groceries.
Found a new lamp for the dining room (I've been wanting one for years), half-price at the thrift store.
Got a load of laundry done.
Took Halloween decorations off the doors and started to gather them (will get the bin from the garage tomorrow).
Messaged my doctor about my missing progesterone prescription.
Messaged with Natasha and Cynthia. (Still need to send messages to Karissa and Finley.)
Did a little bit of skin care (exfoliate application and moisturizing).
Took a long walk in the park during sunset. Did some self-affirmation meditation for an hour.
Got some n/a beers for Thanksgiving (I might drink one tonight).
Got at least a couple things cleaned off around my desk, it's slightly more functional at the moment. Put away all my loose receipts and all unpacked all of the lookout tower bags and such.
Took my collagen today. I think what I might do for the rest of the evening is drink the Sober Carpenter red ale and take my vitamins, and put away clothes while watching True Blood. I think if I have a task I'm doing while the show is on, it's okay to keep binging it. Maybe one episode a day limit?
Might go soaking tomorrow after walking with Cynthia, we'll see. I wanted to climb Dog Mt and tomorrow is dry, Wednesday will be rainy but she wants to walk tomorrow. Maybe I can just hike Dog after the rain, it should clear up by noon and I never get there before then anyway. It will be COLD, I will need to pick up some handwarmers from Mt Shop. I need a sno-park pass anyway, I can grab that also. I also need a new scrambling pack and ski pants but those can wait. I might look at what they have if it's quiet, though.
Little bit sad still and my shoulder huuuuurts but I feel so much better.
....
Oh and also, I got all my orders out this morning.
Cooked up all the mushrooms Tyler dropped off for me (King and Red Admiral boletes)
And picked up some Clausthaler n/a beer for myself for Thanksgiving. (It's going to be rough. Not as rough as xmas -t this will be the practice run for that.) The 20-something clerk at the grocery store tried to card me for buying it. I was like, "This is non-alcoholic, but you can still see my ID if you really want to," haha. That's how rare it is for people in this town to buy non-alcoholic beer, lol. Also, I'm almost 50, lol squared.
