November 1.. this is some crazy shit. But at least today we get an extra hour, so that's something.
I am a slightly broken lady. Friday afternoon, after coming home from Washer's birthday hike, I managed to fall backwards off the middle of my staircase (it's was a pretty high fall). Bam, right on my ass then into a pile on the floor. Needless to say that it really freaking hurt and the past two days have been a little on the slow side. I have adapted a slight limp, my thumb on my hand got severely jammed so I can barely bend it, and I am sore all over. STUPID STAIRS! I am not a graceful hurt person, more like a pissed off, want to break things, angry that I am hurt type. I also get kinda mean. I know it's night a very becoming trait, but when I am sick or hurt, I want to be left alone to lick my wounds and anyone trying to be nice and do things for me makes me crazy. I know, I sound like an asshole, but when I am sick or hurt, I think I kinda am.
But before the fall, my week was going pretty good. We had a pumpkin cookie decorating night which was pretty fun. A couple littles came over and we ate mac and cheese, decorated pumpkins blue (I could only find blue food coloring) and watched the Adams family. It was also Washers Birthday on Friday and we took him for a long birthday hike. The old man is 10, which just blows my mind. I can't believe we have had him and been able to keep him alive for this long (just kidding). But for real, 10 years. And he still acts like a stupid puppy, except a slower moving, more distinguished looking one. And he doesn't chew the windows or floors anymore. He has some so far.
What else? There was some other stuff, but man, my brain is not working properly today so I'll just leave it at that.
So it's Sunday and my plans include drinking a lot of coffee, making a tasteful playlist of all of my favorite christmas music, then listen to it while making washer dog cookies and more or less, kind of just bumming around all day. You know, to heal my ass. I'll probably pick up a new book and make food as well, but no expectations.. I already told myself that if i didn't move off the couch today, that that would be ok.
