I’ve been getting better at forcing myself to get the F off my ass and get shit done around the house.
After not getting a lot of quality sleep on saturday and sunday night and feeling like I didn’t have much of a weekend, I pretty much felt “shut down” yesterday morning. I felt bad because I had plans for what would get done this weekend and it wasn’t looking like any of it would get done. To make things worse, the house was getting more wrecked. But at 6pm I got off my ass and started hosing down the patio. I didn’t’ want to do it, but as soon as I started, I was OK. Dennis helped with the yardwork I wanted done and we pulled some humongous 5 foot tall weeds. My allergies have been worse then ever. And the mosquito situation out there has been just horrible. I sent D to Home Depot to get mosquito larvae killer for our neighbor’s pool. The place is boarded up and the water in that pool is green. There’s no question that’s where the mosquitos are coming from.
I emptied the entire package of 6 tables into the pool. Threw them over the fence and they all landed in the water. I hope that does it. Between that, the candles, the zapper, and the fogger, the mosquito problem should get better. Fingers crossed. I’m thinking of getting the kind that floats on the water tho. Those seem like they’d be more effective since nothing is churning the water.
So anyway his morning it was too hard to get going and I felt like I was getting sick. Thankfully, the feeling passed by 1pm. My allergies have been whooping my ass and sometimes it’s hard to tell if it’s really not a cold coming on. And after doing a little yardwork yesterday, I had to take 2 benadryl to feel normal.
But today I felt my ass dragging so bad. I know I have a lot to get done and it seemed impossible to get moving. Well finally at around 4pm I got moving.
Mr. Happy’s tank is getting cleaned again, laundry is moving, dishes are going, and the vacuum will be coming out before dark. At some point (hopefully today) I have to go order a birthday cake at publix. I wanted to get that done yesterday, but I’m not superwoman.
But everything always feels better when I’m making progress. And I’m making progress now so… I’m feeling better and more awake.
After Sunday, I’m going to focus on making the little room an office. Gotta get that done.
