Return to Phae

Holidays are difficult when you are on your own.  Sabbats are often the time I wish that I had a coven to share my celebrations with.  Or even a big family. 

My family is small, and we all work full time.  There are no kids, so we seem to just get together when we can.  It tends to leave a hole.  Not just at the Sabbats, but on secular holidays as well.

And being sick doesn't help things either.  I feel like I am being lazy by sleeping and only working on things that don't require me to move from the couch.  Though, one of the reasons I hate being sick in the first place is that it makes me feel like I am incredibly lazy and missing out on other things I could be doing.

It occurs to me now that this might be part of the reason that I end up sick so often.

But, I digress.  This post isn't a pity party.  For some reason, my mind just won't let me be in a bad mood for too long (this has issues all its own), and the general feeling of a cloudy, cool, barely well Beltane weekend has inspired me.  I have this little voice that says, 'Well, if you don't like it, fix it.'

So, I'm going to.  Today, while I wait for WD to wake up and take me out to do my errands, I am going to spend my time switching between cleaning, and writing out list of Beltane celebrations, poems, crafts, foods, etc for my BOS.  I figure if I am going to save up for one of those big, fancy tomes, then I'd best have some good stuff to put in it.

Why is everyone around me sick??? All of you sickies, get better, dammit! It is spring! The weather is beautiful, the flowers are filling the air with a wonderous perfume (the lilacs have finally bloomed here - yay!), and all is good and wonderful! So you all better get better - and I mean right now!

Don't make me come down there!

Viral infections suck.  Srsly.  I think I am over the hump, though.  The fever is mostly gone.  If I had the strength I would dance, but getting up for a glass of water is enough to make me nearly pass out, so the dancing will have to wait.  I have been living on soup for the last couple of days.  And have had some digestive issues that tend to cause one to lose weight.

If this is how my 'going to lose that last bit of weight' wish gets manifested, then Someone has a sick sense of humour (pun intended).

That is all.
