My Life on a Plate

Weird Not Wonderful

I had one of my 'weird' days yesterday. It generally happens when I'm overtired or overwrought but the strong May sunshine added to it. The one downside of sunshine is the way it illuminates dirt, dust and streaks on glass.

I look round and feel every bit of my house and garden needs cleaning and sorting, every cupboard and drawer needs tidying and everywhere is a mess. I know from experience it's probably not true and even if it is to some extent, what the hell? I also know that after a good night's sleep I will see it through different eyes. But on days like yesterday I find myself dusting forgotten things in corners, sorting out things that probably don't need sorting, when really I haven't got the energy to do it. Not sure what a psychiatrist would make of all that - probably say 'Get a life you sad person.'

My horoscope suggests I have a quiet day at home; great for the one day in the week I don't have time to turn around. My reflexologist arrives in less than an hour so better get scootling round. Not that the energy level is much improved; the early night backfired on me. Couldn't get to sleep initially then been having the weirdo dreams again. Maybe the foot massage will improve things.

I need more restful nights, less eventful days but I gotta go make myself beautiful (could be a long long job) and I'm sure you've had a bellyfull of my claptrap!
