Disorder - Blech
Oct. 16th, 2004 09:26 amMy house is a mess. I have almost no food in my fridge. I woke up this morning with a splitting headache that has diminished somewhat but not gone away. I took The Child out to IHOP for breakfast because we did not get to do our California Pizza Kitchen date last night because I wasn't feeling well. I didn't feel so great this morning, but the options for breakfast at home were limited.
I am going to go take a long, hot shower, and then start cleaning house -- with significant contributions from the Child, who has a bad habit of spreading construction paper of all sizes across the floor around her desk. She also has the chore of crushing cans for recycling, and drying the dishes as I wash. Then there's the mess of her stuffed animals under her bunkbed that needs to be dealt with. I have a huge clutter on the dining room table and my living room desk, and books strewn everywhere. And there is laundry to do. The happy chore is putting the winter flannel sheets on my bed. Taking a cue from one of my LJ Friends, I'm going to burn some incense, or heat some essential oils, to help clear the energy as well as the physical clutter. I suspect that is long past due.
If I feel up to it later, I will build my new desk and file unit, and go to the mall to buy some peridot earrings to go with my new olive-green lounging outfit, and pick up a set of small speakers I can plug my iPod into to go in the studio next to my treadmill. I have a set on my desk in the living room, but it's a pain to unplug them, untangle the cords, and then set them up somewhere else, which gives me another 'good' reason not to get on the treadmill. I need to make it as easy as possible.
I've been having numinous dreams recently -- not constantly, but on some consistent themes. Last night's dream was mostly chaotic, and didn't feel numinous, but when I started to think about it I realized that it was playing with some of the major symbols/themes. And even though overall the dream didn't feel signficant, the new elements were just enough to help me unravel some more of what the center of the message is/might be.
Off to the shower.
