Wednesday

The pain today is even worse than yesterday, and I am not sure that there is anything I can get done today. I tried to put together one of the shelves, but there are not enough brackets and I had to abandon that project. I have some laundry that needs attention and I am going to try to start moving some of the boxes around in the basement. I need to get a few things done in each room now, and find the rest of the missing items. I am anxious to be done. I need to rest and the need to be finished over whelms my need to rest. My muscles ache to the bone and I just want to sleep.

I allowed my day to start slowly. Feed the cats, make some coffee, take my shower, begin moving just a bit. The aches are overwhelming the desire to do anything and altho I am happy to find boxes where they do not belong, it is hard to move any box from here to there right now. I spent most of the morning on the couch, and most of the afternoon arguing with tech support, hoping to get internet up and running

It is another rainy day. The sun and rain are taking turns, it is as dark as dusk at 3:00 in the afternoon. Another box of books in the art room that really don't belong there. I need to find the shelves for my bedroom and at least get them up. That will give me some space for some of the books. I haven't found my cd's yet. I was, however, thrilled to find all of the shelf brackets and so I can put up shelves in the basement for my art room and storage. I think my "wrapping station" will be down there as well. It would be easier to have the gift closet and the boxes all in one place and this house is not going to allow there to be any other space on the first floor.

By mid afternoon I am moving easier, but I am still quite hesitant to do very much work. I will use up that little bit of energy easily if I am careful, and there are so many boxes that need to go downstairs, and just a few that need to be brought up.

I almost feel tired enough to sleep and an afternoon nap would be a good idea again. I will be glad to get back to a schedule that is closer to something that I would like. Six boxes emptied, another five or six moved. Things are beginning to come together. I feel strongly about getting the kitchen empty and the office area set up, and be able to get back to work. I have rent to pay and bills are beginning to pile up. My loneliness will be good feel to get the work down, the stack of unpaid bills will be a great motivation.
