Successful day.
Mar. 4th, 2009 09:36 pmThanks to being on the phone with Carol when I got home, I managed to get litterboxes cleaned, and to get trash pulled and put near the door for Faeryn to take out (it is her job to take out the trash) when she gets home. I'm in bed, craving chocolate ice cream like crazy, and feeling too tired/lazy to get dressed to go get some, though the fact that Walgreens is a mile away and I could get away with just putting on my full-length coat over my nightgown makes it tempting.
I was good today. Because of certain people being concerned that my tea drinking is causing my iron deficiency (the tannin in black tea is apparently the problem), I drank raspberry green tea most of the day. It is caffeinated, but I don't think I'd have made it through the day without the caffeine. I had 3 cups and one cup of black tea, and one cup of plain water - a definite increase in hydration and decrease in black tea. My diet still leaves a great deal to be desired, but I got a rice cooker from freecycle tonight, and will be planning some meals to make in it. It was given to me with a cookbook as well.
After work I had to go to the post office (got to leave work early so I could pick up stamps and mail certified letters for work), and mailed 2 packages out and some letters. I've pulled together a couple of things to go in another package and have ordered and sent 2 less personal packages to let people know I'm thinking of them now rather than waiting until I manage to pull together something person and get it in the mail because it may take me weeks before I manage to get the next package mailed.
I've made it through another day and am ready for sleep, though my brain doesn't want to turn off, and my body keeps demanding ice cream *sigh*. I've got other forms of chocolate in the house, which don't sound remotely appealing. I'm hoping I'll fall asleep soon because it is too cold and ridiculous to go out now for something I really don't need and isn't particularly good for me.
Maybe a silly computer game will distract me and let me sleep.
