Vacation is a marvelous thing. This has been just what I needed.
I decided last night that I would stay in today. These are my afternoon/evening plans:
*Do some journaling about my feelings (at the suggestion of my new IC). She said that I should record feelings at the time I have them. Then I should record, when possible, the direct cause or contributing factor (or even trigger) for each individual feeling. *Read self-help books (my newly acquired hobby, much to my disbelief) and take notes on particularly helpful, illuminating, or revealing information. *Watch reruns of whatever strikes my fancy. *Play hostess to pest control guys. *Pick up paint chips from home-improvement store. [Technically, this involves leaving the house, but I'm thinking of painting tomorrow. It might help if I had a paint color in mind.] *Consider putting laundered sheets on bed (though Boxer dog and I have slept just fine on the mattress pad for two nights).
It looks like it might rain soon, so this will make it a perfectly cozy afternoon. It also means I won't have to water my plants.
