Holidays

Holidays are generally rough for me.  Especially since I no longer have family here in Ohio.  This isn't my first holiday alone (even with family living here) but they don't get an easier.  I never thought I'd be one of those people who spends holidays alone.  Of course, let's be honest, I never thought my life would end up where it is now.

I decided that instead of feeling sorry for myself yesterday, I would make it self care Sunday!  I slept in (which was glorious) and then decided to clean my house.  Cleaning doesn't seem like much of self care but it makes me feel better when my space is (somewhat) clean. 

I reorganized underneath my kitchen cabinets and my bathroom cabinet.  I cleaned out my refrigerator and a lot of my bathroom stuff that I'm no longer using.  (Old face masks, old make up, etc.)  I ended up with 3 bags of trash.  Then I dusted and ran the vacuum.  I cleaned the litter boxes and the bathroom.  Then I showered, did my hair and made myself a nice meal. 

Well, a sort of nice meal.  Hahaha.  I orignally planned to make filet migon, corn, salad and bread.  Soooooo I burnt the filet and the corn wasn't that great so I ended up pitching most of the filet and corn.  The salad and bread were very good though.  And I had a little Reese Egg for dessert. I watched We Bought a Zoo.  Then I cleaned up everything (dishes and I ended up scrubbing my stove and wall) and then I read until bed time.  I even skipped Game of Thrones.

I don't feel the greatest.  I have a runny nose, body aches and a cough.  I'm sure it's just allergies and my damn fibro (weather changes KILL me!)

I'm not feeling very inspired to write right now but wanted to update about my self care Sunday. 

I hope everyone had a great holiday!
