Simple Things

This morning was bizarre for me. I'm not going to go in to details, but it was the longest fight or flight situation I've ever encountered. I felt so out of my body. Driving home with Joe I had it in my mind that today was going to be terrible and I should just go back to my freezing little apartment with my dog and sleep the day away. But then Joe and I went back to his house and laid in bed for hours and hours just laughing and talking and thinking aloud. It's days like these that remind me of why I stick with him through all the hard times. He loves me so much, and I love him.

Anyway, so after spending a few hours with Joe, I drove home and called Autumn to tell her about my day. Even though she's younger than me, she always has something helpful to say that makes me feel like she's really the older one. I'm so thankful she's my sister. K so anyway, I came home and played with Lylah for a bit. I always feel so anxious being away from her. I don't like thinking about her laying around the house all day with no one to pay attention to her. As soon as I get home it's just a wave of relief. The apartment is freezing because Chels and I never turn on the heat (too friggen poor). I also tried to turn on the water to take a shower and the water won't get hot. Sooooooo, I reheated some takeout. I took out my heated blanket. I turned on Perks of Being a Wallflower, and now I'm in bed.

Sometimes it's the simple things that make life good. Not sometimes, always.
