a quiet day indeed

well, thus far i've succeeded in having a quiet day. a few phone calls in the morning, which found me in various states of wakefulness (but always sleepiness, even if i'd been awake for an hour already). pam came over and had coffee with me, i remembered to eat and take my morning meds around 2pm, so i had a yogurt. that's all i've had today besides coffee.... and i'm really not feeling like eating. i threw out 5 nectarines yesterday (or was it the day before?) because they were busy molding away in my fridge.

the song has really come together. i'm fighting off the urge to make big changes to it, "after all, it's straight from scripture, it's not very 'unique' is it, lynne?" lol. well, how unique does it have to be? God's Word is a very unique thing indeed. so only minor changes are permitted as/unless i feel led. making it uniquely mine would not be good - it needs to be uniquely God's, period.

well, it's half past 5, i'm still in half of my jammies, never finished getting dressed yet. i been puttering all day pretty much, playing piano, fixed up my makeshift 'couch' (old futon mattress folded up and prettied up). i just finished the easiest game of spider solitaire ever - i have all the piles turned over before i even dealt once. and now i'm blogging. what i 'should' do now is get dressed and go visit mom. i need to get out of the house, i'm feeling a little bit of cabin fever. so i'll get dressed, go get mom, pick up some homogenized milk and prune nectar. ...too bad i get my shopping urges at night - i need a new wallet, mine broke but it's still usable until such time as i find the 'right' wallet, and not before, which is good because wal-mart has no good wallets right now, and nothing else that sells decent quality wallets is open this time of night, so it might take a while!

i'm thankful mom stashed a bit of money away for me.... i paid my bills so my bank balance is zippo, so at least i have a bit of petty cash for milk and prune juice, and other essentials such as a new wallet, and the odd stop at tim's for a hot smoothie and croissants, lol!

i searched mom's hospital room for a kettle high and low, and didn't find one, so i bought her one, $23. when i brought it back to her room, i found two in the lower cupboard, go figure. money i didn't need to spend. and i can't really return it now, becuase mom figured it was something i needed for home anyways, so we used it (rather than using potentially 'icky' communal kettles, lol). oh well.
