As I was writing what you are about read, I realized that I subconsciously took a page out of a Seinfeld script. Remember the episode where George and Jerry are pitching the idea of their show and say “it’s a show about nothing”. …….
This morning was magic! Somewhere in the middle of the night, my brain concluded that the files and piles in my office drawers were suddenly in desperate need of organizing. And wonders of wonders, I felt good enough to accept the mission 🙂
I consumed a daring breakfast of French toast, I have been sticking to a soft food/liquid diet for the last few days, but once the idea of French toast got in my head, that’s what I wanted! So far, so good.
First joy of the morning was caring for and playing with the kittens These three kittens have been an exceptional pleasure to raise..I’ll miss them when we drop them off Monday.
I rummaged in the storage area and found two empty Rubbermaid containers. Game on! Soon the plastic boxes were filled with my old files, my high school yearbook, and a variety of items that I don’t need in my office. I had lots of trash and more recycle. Now I have order, supported in part by the folder tabs I wrote and attached identifying the hanging file’s contents. I know, right?
It was nice going through old memories, and knowing where they can be found again. Nice to purge myself of bills of sale for cars/boats we no longer own, piles of receipts for stuff we no longer have, manuals and receipts for items that broke or were donated long ago. Mostly, I think I felt good just getting something accomplished. 🙂
So final health report of day.😖
I had to give in to “Being not Doing” this evening. My stomach still appears to be OK but now my gosh darn sciatica is making it hard to walk. If it isn’t one thing it’s another …anyway not so bad that I couldn’t do my puzzles, finish my book, write this journal…
Did I mention that Hans has been an amazing husband in the nine days that we’ve been married? Tonight, he brought me dinner in bed.
