Journal Entry for April 20, 2009 Mood
Monday, April 20, 2009
Down to two loads of laundry. I dunno what got into me...I dusted my living room, at least mostly. The furniture I dusted...just didn't dust the pictures or shelves on the wall. I'll get to it eventually. One step at a time. I'm not a person who likes to dust, so this was an accomplishment. Rearranged a few pictures so my pictures with my sister in them are in the same area now. Didn't turn out quite like I wanted it to, but it'll do for now. I've done like five loads of laundry (between the ones that are dried and the ones that I had to wash and dry), and I've got two left, one in the washer, one in the dryer. Then its just socks, which may take me weeks to manage cuz I hate matching socks with a passion. My dishes are washed, supper is done and cleaned up, my house was vacuumed and swept today, my bathroom was cleaned, and the mopping will get done later in the week. I've been relatively productive. I don't get these productive days often, and to top that off, Ethan was home with pink eye (its getting better already thankfully!), so I had to keep up with him too. I've done impressively well. I think I laid on couch with my eye shut and awake and listening to the TV and Ethan for maybe a total of an hour, off and on. Ethan's getting restless and I can't let him sleep until Carl gets home in like over an hour. He's at Target getting meds right now, and picking up a few other things. Umm...tomorrow I'm not doing much...most of my house is cleaned now, laundry should be done by the time I go to bed, so cleaning off my table, maybe wiping down my counters or something, maybe folding socks, just piddly stuff. My mental health...meh. Its been so up and down. I see the psychiatrist on Thursday, so we'll see what she says about it all. I just dunno sometimes. I don't want to get put on any more meds then I am already on. I'm on a minimum of meds right now and I like it this way. I hate the restless legs I get from the one at night when I go to bed, but otherwise I can't overly complain. Its been a pretty good day at least. Anyhow, just thought I'd update.

    That is what I call an energy spurt!!! Good for you. Sorry Ethan isn't feeling good. Pink Eye can be pretty annoying.
