too much thinkin'
Something about my day has me rattled. I had to take this visitor who has been here with us for over a month
out in the city.or rather I was asked to take her out while I did my personal errands.
She's a nice person - but I just really don't like having too much contact with her. She triggers me,
plus I have a fever and chills and aches all over. She sits only in the back seat of the car when I drive her(like
I am the chauffer) and then starts trying to ask to be taken so many different places spontaneously -
as though I even have the knowledge of where everything is in the city. I live most of my time
in the monastery. She didn't make that leap of logic. But she suprised me today by saying she wanted
to see a dentist - without warning or an appointment and I had to scramble - well me and the sisters
had to scramble to help find her a dentist. Then after the fact she wanted to go to an organic pharmacy (whatever that is)
and then she wanted to go to a mall shopping for clothes. I didn't take her to either I just took her back
to the monastery and orhestrated tomorrow's dental appointment. Lord helps us if she can't afford it.
She has no insurance. I took her first to a public free clinic today and she said she did not want to go
to a clinic - she wanted to go to a private dentist. Totally she is offered a hand and instead she takes the whole
arm. Sorry I guess this is me bashing. I don't know why I have such a headache. I'll take my meds and go to sleep
soon.
While I layed in bed early this evening (because I have a fever and chills etc.) my mind just started
to feel more and more pressure. Maybe it's not healthy for me to be alone? I mean I live in a wonderful
community - it's like a family - and yet we also kind of live on our individual planets in a meta - life
type way. I can't express it so well. I think I'm just like starting to see how I want to live -
how I think I lean in a direction towards structuring my world and seeing myself in a certain light.
I am seeing that we each do that. And we each want attention in our own ways - possibly relational
to that certain light. Anyways - I am fahklempt - I need to take my magic meds and go to sleep.
Sending big love and good vibes out to all youse guys :) .
Good night. xx

It sure doesn't help that you're sick sweetie
I would ask if someone else can take her tomorrow and spend the day resting
You're probably contagious
It would be bettef to be on your own healing
Big hug...xo
Thanks Jan!
Yes, rest if you’re sick! Take care of yourself before taking care of others!
thanks Nikki!
