A day in my life

I am feeling worse today than yesterday. I woke up this morning with a pain behind my eye that extends by my ear and down the right side of my neck. My tummy is also wambly. Is this what PMS feels like, because I can't really remember. Between the 39 weeks of pregnancy and the last 6 months living in a fog, I just can't recognize it. The shaky stomach makes me think I am really not ready to handle morning sickess again. It has completely interrupted my day and it is not even that severe.

After attempting to work, I did yoga mid-morning to try to get the kinks our of my neck and shoulders. It didn't help and I cried near the end. Bless my poor dog. I don't know what she thinks is going on, but she knows that I need licked. And laid upon.

I started to feel a bit better after eating lunch outside. The weather is not beastly hot today. The sun was a little hard on my eyes though. I came in to try to do some more work, accomplishing one task for the day. I prepared some baked beadns for dinner. Then I decided to take a nap.

I may have fallen asleep, but really, I just let my mind wander and think about the things that are bothering me. Serenity is always there, maybe a little more poignant today than other days. I have a pile (albeit modest) of freelance work. This makes me a little anxious, as I want to turn it around in a timely manner and do a bang-up job to get both repeat business and referrals. In some ways, having a pile of work causes more anxiety than no work! Well, ok maybe I just get anxious either way. Deep breaths.... I also made a financial mistake some months ago. I think this is what woke me up this morning. I thought through it while laying on the living room floor, and I decided to suck it up, deal with it, move on. That is what really made me feel better, I think.

So, feeling better. Except those darn live babies were still on the dashboard when I logged in. Seriously, one stares right at you. The joys of riding the DeadBabyLand Rollercoaster.
