It's been a long time...

But I'm sure I'll go even longer without writing. Today is a day full of frustration for me. I am sick, and inadvertently got up an hour earlier, which is good in many ways, but bad for me not being tired. I have a cold and I'm cranky and work had its share of things not quite working out, leaving me teary and upset and knowing it was because I'm tired and sick...it's a vicious cycle. To top it all off, P and I got in, well, not quite what I'd call a fight, but a conversation that just didn't go well...we ended it in a way that upset me, although I'm sure it's me overeacting again. But it is troublesome. Powerwalking ensued, despite the 39 degree weather. Walking often helps to clear my head, or at least get them moving around in a more coherent manner. Which is a difficult thing to do when it's so full of this thickness and haze from within and without.
