Yeah, tough stuff, askye.

Go easy on yourself, smonster. I have stuff I needed to do today that didn't get done, and I don't have pain! But keep plugging away a little at a time.

I have to do some work this weekend, as I have a meeting at 9AM that I have done zero prep for. That'll be a couple hours. I went dancing tonight, which is always good--combo of working out (it's totally a workout, I get so sweaty!) and seeing friends. There was even a cute girl to flirt a little with. Yay. In the morning, PI day run and pie! And maybe at some point go see a ballet movie?

Fingers crossed it's not raining too bad during the race tomorrow--it was nice today but tomorrow is 90% rain (but maybe just sprinkles as opposed to pouring??)

I still think MM needs to get that transporter working so we can go help each other motivate and clean in person! (Ok in person we'd actually hang out, watch tv, and drink. But whatever.)

No, but see... not getting stuff done then would simply be being the kind of gracious, thoughtful hosts that focus on guests' relaxation and pleasure. It would be a virtue. I swear.

I don't wanna deal with the oppressive mass of clutter. I wanna go back to bed. But I'll be mad at myself later if I do. Ugh.

I feel better this morning, physically and mentally, if still slightly stoned. Up early enough to bake banana bread and clean up some before brunch starts, so that's good. Goals: bake bread, fold and put away clothes, shower. Anything else is lagniappe.

C'mon, Zenkitty, you can do it! Would it help to put on music and/or use a timer and take a short break every hour or so, a la Flylady!!

I'm up. Showered and about to make breakfast. Not entirely awake yet. A caffeinated beverage would be a good idea. Think I'd like today better if it were sunny instead of rainy and gloomy, but hey, it isn't snowing! And there's a loud cheery songbird on the patio determined to make it be spring right now.

Cheese omelette and bacon, with a side of antihistamines. Yum!

That does sound yummy! And hey, if it were sunny, you'd be resentful of being cooped up inside cleaning. Or maybe that's just me.

Once again I have overestimated what I can do in a given time. Banana bread is in the oven and I'm about to shower, and that's going to be all that gets done before the party. Ah well.

I've accomplished buying a plane ticket. There's a wildlife park in Sequim WA that's for retired animal actors, and you can drive amongst them and some of them you can feed (specially bought) bread and maybe they will lick you. I said to my friend K., I wanna go there, and this is what's great about her, with most people vague "I wannas" remain dreams, but K.? She says YEAH LET'S GO and let's do this other thing while we're at it! So now I'm going to Washington in May to meet my friend for her birthday and go tour two wildlife parks.

That sounds wonderful, Zenkitty.

I am very slowly organizing my house to accommodate the office. It is going to work just fine. DH is out of town for a couple days so it is just me and loudish music and organizing.

Breakfast was oatmeal with blueberries, pecans, and a big spoon of chocolate hazelnut stuff. Quite yum.

I also have to organize a diet plan with menus for a couple weeks to present to DH. He'll forgive me for sharing that he couldn't fit in the airplane seatbelt and was most unhappy about that. We are both bigger than ever 100% due to stress eating. This really has to stop. We don't want to buy new clothes. When we go on our anniversary trip Tuesday I think we shall frighten people at the hotel pool!
