Psychology Today
Yesterday and today have been super-busy days. Good -and productive – but long and tiring.
Yesterday started with regular morning chores. Then we enjoyed our friends at Lunch Bunch. We ran some errands, came home, and then back out again 45 minutes later for doctor appointments. More errands, and then, as we started back home, the skies had suddenly cleared from our week-long dreary, rainy ones, so we packed up the back of the truck with our donations to the Disabled Veterans Thrift Store in Fort Smith, invited the dog to travel with us and headed out again.
It was still cloudy, and we have the windows in the back halfway down when Amber travels with us. I also have to crack my window because the air buffets my ears, making them uncomfortable. The result was I felt thoroughly chilled by the time we got home. I got a cup of hot coffee, turned on my heat pad, and snuggled under my throw in my recliner in the living room until I felt warm again.
By this time it was 7 pm, time to feed animals and humans. We finally packed it up for the day at midnight.

Today, too, has been a whirlwind of activity. So far today we have run errands, I’m running the third load of laundry, I fixed bacon-wrapped chicken – ready to put in the oven later, I baked two spaghetti squashes and then put them into individual servings in the freezer, cleaned out our aquarium, vacuumed the first floor tiles…. My list is long, but I’m making progress. I’m having a cup of coffee and writing these posts, and then I’ll get back to work again.
I feel good when I’ve accomplished things on my list, but I’ll give myself permission to play in my art room again soon…
