~I had a pretty productive day yesterday. Made to WinCo. Took in the recycling. Picked up my books from the library. Did some laundry. Took a shower. Then slept for about nine hours.
My lil kitty related meltdown proved cathartic. As I said in comments, it took me until my early thirties to learn to allow myself to cry and I have no intention of giving that up.
Our Season of Trauma lasted from early October of last year until the beginning of July of this year. And, in retrospect, sort of continued through July and into some of August in some ways, though with less intensity. The humid heat and having to adjust to the swamp cooler was taxing in its own way, especially for Le-Le.
So it was only toward the end of August that shit really began to chill and then I got the 'tooth thing' for my birthday, which I now suspect was the largely result of clenching over Money Issues. Lovely, eh?
Anyway, we're still coming out from under all this shit even as I type these words. The cooling off helps, as does now having a clear outline of our near term financial situation, which is tight but workable.
I need to really stick to the House Rule, “When you're tired, lay down.” That will get me back to my Constitutionals faster and more effectively than anything else.
I'm babbling here, so I shall stop....
