When your mind is clouded

-
I have been sick. I think I am so used to being sick that I didn't really give it much thought. I took Monday off work and went to the doctor. I decided to take today off as well. Even if I feel better the next day I like to give myself a buffer of a one day to make sure I don't overdo it. So I did feel better this morning after taking my first round of the Z-pack. I got up, showered and started cleaning up. I had let the housekeeping go because I wasn't feeling well. The building staff was supposed to come in to do maintenance work. I wondered how that was going to work considering the elevators were out of service most of the day. But just in case I got up and started cleaning after my shower. It literally took me all morning to clean. I didn't even do a deep clean. More of a spot clean. But the apartment looks and smells so much better than it did. I didn't do everything but I did enough to make it presentable. Maybe I can do the deep clean this weekend.

Anyway, the cleaning must have also cleared my head. I am ready to go back to work tomorrow and keep trying. I planned to do work as well but all I want is a nap. We can blame that on the hot toddies!

Goal Setting

-
Had my goal setting meeting with bosses. We are keeping the same goals as last year. I will still casually browse around for a job, but I feel relatively confident that I am safe - for now. Now, my goals for the summer include but aren't limited to: Get my apartment deep cleaned and redecorated Clear out storage unit Travel (even if locally) Take lots of photos: Do a neighborhood project where I shoot different blocks and neighborhoods each day.  Go to Brooklyn - a lot! Go to lots of free concerts Score lots of rush tickets to see Broadway shows Hit the gym, swim, walk, and bike Write, write, write! Get to one of those Korean spas I keep hearing about Stay on top of my pedicures and massages Watch plenty of sunrises and sunsets Get back to living a clean life Rediscover joy Go to the beach - a lot! Laugh - a lot! Get my finances in order Catch up on the magazines that have piled up Catch up on the books that have piled up Takes lots of relaxing baths Have f...

My baby has crossed the rainbow bridge

-
I know a few of your have been lurking here for years. So you know that I had a sweet little fur baby who I loved very much and who has moved with me from city to city since I've had her. It is with much sadness that I must report that my sweet girl was put to sleep to on Monday. She was getting up in age and had several medical conditions that warranted putting her to sleep. Her quality of life had deteriorated and I was no longer able to care for her the way she needed to be cared for. Her vet wanted her put down a while ago but because I have my issues with grief and abandonment I wasn't ready. I think getting therapy for the short time that I did was helpful with getting me over the hump to move forward. I know it was the right thing to do and she went so peacefully that it helped me know that I made choice.  I miss my girl. I look for her because we have never been apart for long periods of time. There are people who don't understand the connection that humans have to ...

Took a break

-
I have been so busy trying to keep all of the balls in the air. Then I got sick. I haven't been this sick in a while. My allergies turned into an upper respiratory infection and I am still coughing as I try to clear out my bronchial passages. I've also started juicing to help support the recovery and have lost 15 lbs. I haven't had much of an appetite, so I drink fresh juice from the juice bar to keep my energy up. I could definitely keep this up for a while then transition back into a pescaterian diet. Sick and tired of being sick and tired.
