life is full and i enjoy the fullness of life.
been waking up at a reasonable hour - 8ish - and have been wearing my creative bonnet. er, this is a figurative bonnet btw and merely means ive been painting, listening to music, reading and gearing up for ceramics which begins thursday.
and ive been thinking a lot about calling people i care about but never call. such as friends and family.
ive also been scheduling yoga into my calendar, and even though i havent actually gone yet, writing into my schedule is one step closer to actually going. i imagine it wont take more than another two weeks before i actually make it to a session.
as for my paxil, im still at 10mg and doing fantastic. it seems to take around 3 days for my brain and body to adjust to a decrease. those days are filled with anxiety, sleepiness and all around mood shifts. poor db. its like living with an eternal pms factory. fortunately he is very experienced with crazy kids, and my outbursts and antics are nothing compared to them.
LE has been gone forever now, so last night we decided to move the airconditioner from her room into the living room so we could sit for a while without being drenched in our own sweat. turns out its rather comfy being in a 72 degree living room. who knew?
we've also finally started cleaning out her room and arranging it for our own uses. it has become quite apparent how small the room is. or at least how oddly shaped and set up it is with doors on nearly every wall. but we shall make due. we intend to have a great study/music/beer drinking room. uh, i'll be sipping wine while others drink the beer.
someone was up gobbling brownies last night... unfortunately it wasnt me or db. it appears there are more mice. its not like we didnt know this already, but its rather disheartening. i honestly feel like a pest-fighting warrior, and this was not a role i signed up for... ever. i dont really want to be in a constant state of battle with several varieties of spiders, four different kinds of flies, two kinds of moths, silverfish, ants, earwigs, milicentipedish-things, or the cute fuzzy little mice and rats that live in the walls. it seems like im contstantly killing things and that just doesnt fit with my life balance plan. its rather unfortunate that these creatures arent considered food in our culture, since im pretty sure we could open our own little farmers market, or at least save a sizeable amount of money by having them as part of our own meal plan.
all this pest control talk has made me sleepy. and that reminds me of a dream i had about losing my computer on a water ride.
