Up In The Air

Adam is home all day, and may also have tomorrow off. Then on Thursday we leave for England. It hasn't hit me yet. I will be in London (Kentish Town) from Friday morning until Sunday morning. Seriously, London. Overseas. I've never been anywhere overseas. Sometimes I forget to breathe, I get so nervous. Cry more, little white North American girl, but still, you know, augh. I hope I don't have panic attacks. I also hope my cane won't be a problem with the TSA. It's metal. But it's collapsible. I could rest it in my lap on the plane. I don't always need it to walk, but it helps a great deal especially when I have to walk through a giant airport like Dulles. Adam says I could check it, but I'd feel better having it on me.

Rose apparently loves spirulina tablets. She stole and ate one yesterday. I've read that since spirulina is highly alkaline and cats do better with acidic systems, I can only give Rose spirulina as an occasional treat. It will certainly improve her immune functions and help her skin and coat, so I feel good about her eating one every now and then.

I think today is a day to sit back and relax. Also meditate, because my current biggest fear is my body responding too violently to anxiety.

It appears to be a Catnap Ahoy day. All the cats are sleeping draped in various positions: Luna on the back of the couch, Rose next to Adam on the couch, Jupiter on the wheelchair.

I've mentioned how much I love this, right? I love this:

$WINTERHOLIDAY Meme thingy whatever

I saw this floating around. What the hell, why not?

My Top Ten $WINTERHOLIDAY Wishes:
1. A job. In Maryland or DC, Metro accessible. Preferably something with libraries or administrative filing or similar. I am not physically able to lift things over twenty-five pounds without stress and pain. I type sort of one-handed, but I'm very good at it. I like focusing on one task at a time. I can't drive. I can ride the DC Metro and bus system for free with my disability ID. Yes, I've gone through all the various websites for federal jobs and disability jobs.
2. A new Tarot deck, or Caroline Myss' Jungian archetype deck.
3. Fleece blankets or sweaters.
4. Infinity coupons to pet supply stores. I have three cats.
5. A day at a spa.
6. Money to pay off debts and such.
7. A gift card to one or more of the following stores: Vitamin Shoppe, Roots Market, Bark Pet Food or Trader Joe's.
8. A new body.
9. The ability to finish writing the rest of this book quickly without the stuttering brain issues. Maybe I need to find another ADD medication, alongside the gotu kola and DMAE and amino acids and meditation.
10. The energy, motivation, and pain relief needed personally to exercise hardcore. At home.
