winterbadgerI ran two lines this morning, ARing a match at 8 and another at 9.45, and managed to come away without anyone extremely pissed off at me. It was exhausting and satisfying and really almost fun. :-)
I was feeling a bit blue on the way home, but I chatted with my neighbours about their cats, who I will be looking after next week, and about a squirrel who has figured out how to unlatch their canister of bird food on the porch (!) Then I did something I haven't done in far too long--I took a shower and then a long hot bath with a book. I stopped reading after a while and just enjoyed the hot water. But I got out when I started feeling sleepy, put on some warm clothes, and I'm going to have some lunch, maybe a nap if I can, like a cat, find a sunny spot. Later I need to do laundry, prep some miniatures for painting. DC United are playing for their chance to go to the playoffs. NJS and Bryan will be over later to pick up some stuff; I may go watch the game she's reffing (her first center, I think, in CCSL!) and her teams's game, then come home and have an early night.
I'm feeling pretty weary these days. Sadness threatens from time to time, and loneliness, but they're mostly keeping at bay what with the opportunities to do things with friends, books to read, videos to watch, Rupert to ride... mostly I just end up being tired. Need to sleep more and get more exercise!
Right now, though lunch beckons, and a beautiful sunny day!

Date: 2008-10-27 02:15 am (UTC)My ref season is, I think, over now. My eldest's team finished 4th in Regional tournament. Unless there is a crying need at Area, I won't go on. Time to get serious about the tiny tin troops again, right?
