I’m so lazy lately. I’m just sitting around watching TV episodes and snacking. Part of this is laziness, part is trying to recover from another couple of colds I’ve had in the last month. These vex me and also hamper my ability to attend dance classes. I wish I was snacking on something interesting to describe but it’s just chips and oatmeal. Also rice since I got a rice cooker for Xmas.

Somehow, despite walking into Oak Bay (which took 35 minutes) I still ended up at Dollar Giant downtown. No matter what I do on Sundays, I always end up at Dollar Giant. Dollar Giant, however, is not the same without Naomi there to harass down each and every aisle. Memories!
I currently am addicted to Animal Cookies from Dollar Giant.
My day today also consisted of Facebook, finishing a real book, (with pages!) (paper pages), Family Guy, clearing off the shelf in front of my kitchen, and then looking at the rest of my house which is a mess. I also watered my plants.

The book I ordered on-line arrived yesterday. I got home and had one of those parcel pick-up tags with my mail. So I thought I’d have to go pick it up on Monday. But the tag said “package in the bax by your door.” I didn’t see a box. But beside my door, at ankle level, is a compartment with a door. It was in there!
This is where my package was! -
The rain was so loud last night it woke me up. It was great.
I finally did my laundry after not doing it for more than 2 weeks. The delay was because I was sick and week. Now I am better and can therefore do laundry, which makes me feel good to have it done.
Yesterday was a bit of a dud day but my reason is just. I went for a walk for the first time since being ill and may have over done it a little, just in that my stamina isn’t quite recovered yet. But I was out before the rains came. I explored Fernwood, making it all the way to their village. So many great houses. More rustic than Fairfield and Rockland, but not dumpy either!
Today I’m trying to write some stuff. Today I’m trying not to watch TV because I did that yesterday, and kindof that’s all I’ve done for the past three weeks and I’m getting so bored of it. The Olympic opening was pretty good though.

Still sick. Rather, still bogged down with tight chest. Then I started panicking about it at work yesterday and so admitted defeat and came home to rest. Work was fine except for the huffing and puffing from walking down the hall, which, apparently is not actually fine but I totally could handle it for three days.
Proud of self for just requesting that I have today off too, since asthma is one thing but having anxiety about asthma, and then having anxiety about anxiety is a completely different.
I don’t know if I feel better today because all I did was lie around.
Although maybe I wasn’t so out-of-breath when I walked down to the library. That could be because I walked a snail’s pace. I have no patience for this.
Good things: Vanilla Earl Gray tea.
The movie “27 Dresses”
Praline Ice Cream.

I’m sick. It’s not a normal sick where I have to lie in bed and complain for a few days. It’s an annoying sick where I can’t tell I feel bad until i get up and do something, like try to go to work, which I have done for the past couple of days only to have to come home again because I can’t breath.
It started as a sore throat but didn’t progress into a cold or anything, just sank down into my chest so I have my normal can’t breath dealie. What I did yesterday was go to work until noon but really couldn’t walk between my desk and the front office (about 20 steps) without huffing. That I and I was almost lynched for bringing a virus-infected body into the office. No more of that! I’m staying home and eating oatmeal and soup. (Not mixed together, of course.) For the past three days it’s been oatmeal and maca-broccoli because I had an abundance of broccoli. Broccoli is gone now. I might have “maca-pea” today but the very name makes me nervous, but I have many fresh peas and need something to do with them.

Today I moseyed a lot. Oh! And there was a guy with a huge canada flag on his car that went FLAP FLAP FLAP so loud I could hear it from my apartment.
“What’s that!” I exclaimed.
Also there’s smutch on my pajama pants on each knee that I don’t know where it came from but it’s probably tacos.

Sitting down a little too quickly on the chair because a)tipsy and b) dad made it lower than I have it usually.
Walking through Beacon Hill Park with Dad and Jordan. I have lived only some blocks from BHP for months now and this is my first walk through since I’ve been here. Oops. We watched cricket and the goats at the petting zoo.
Shopping for heavy groceries because dad was here to drive me and them home.
(In reverse order).
Good Sunday. I have to remember to go to work tomorrow.

I’ve worn four different outfits today and the day isn’t even over.
Now I’m wearing “writing pants.”
i'll try to be better. i promise
