continued detachment, anxiety, and joys of limbo

[Phoebe]

I'm with you, SparrowHawk, a circus will always be a three-ring sheet show in my mind now!

So I'm stuck in my house without a car and no phone to call for a ride back to my car. Looks like I'm going to get in a nice hot hour's walk today unless I go beg my neighbors for a ride. Bummerific development. The walk would be great, but in 90 humid degrees, well... not so much, and thunderstorms are coming, too. I could wait until my parents realize they haven't heard from me, but I said I'd be a few hours, so I'd be waiting quite a whilee and I have things I need to do today.

My other task while I was in the house was to call my therapist to let him know how I'm doing. Can't do that, either.

So, the chicks are doing well, the chickens are well, the cats are well, and I am... well, obviously I'm a bit scattered!

I'm also feeling kind of numb and generally down, shaking, the usual stuff, but letting out a few deep breaths of f-that.

OK. I've got 3 miles to walk before the storms arrive, so no time like the present, right?! Have to change into lighter clothes, though, or my nice shower will have been for naught.

Thank you SH and Painter and everyone else for keeping up with me. It means a lot to know that you are out there.
