Ahhhhhhh…

I *really* needed a shower, guys. And I got one tonight before bed. AND vacuumed the whole house and washed the hardwood floors. AND did laundry, including nnneeewwww shheeeeeettssss. They’re like butta.

I needed a day like today. I got my writing done first thing, made sure I had food for the day, cleaned and watched some football. It was really, really nice. I also passed out for an hour-and-a-half nap.

It was an exhausting week. Finishing my short story, the Coco day where I was afraid she was dying, work…it was just a lot. I needed a nice weekend at home to just get my house in order and my feet back down onto the ground.

Oh, I was also thinking today about little things I can add to my morning writing time, and I think I might get into having a cup of tea while I write. Help make sure I’m awake, give me something to look forward to. A ritual, you know? External cues that help the brain get into a certain headspace. They certainly work for me. Cleaning the house today really helped calm me down and feel like I was fully back inside my own body.

Anyway…it’s time for the sleeps. The Ho was gone all done, sad face, and she’s going to be out most of tomorrow, too. Tomorrow for me is a little bit of Netflix work in the morning to wrap up a busy week, some football in the morning, and some reading/writing in the afternoon. Moving onto Icarus! Get that shit finished, too. Finally. I’m t-minus four weeks until the contest I’m entering it into ends. Time to move!

Good night! Sweet dreams. See you tomorrow 😉
