Another pretty crappy day, though I did accomplish a few things.
I woke up around 9 am, though I went back to sleep again a couple of times. I got up for good at around 11 am. There was no breakfast and no lunch today. I worked in my room all day until about 4:30 pm. I moved the rest of the Barbie Bazarre and the Nutshell News magazines into the bookshelf in the closet. I put away the other bag of Barbie accessories. I moved the laundry basket full of my afghans into the closet except for the two I kept out to put at the end of my bed. I emptied another laundry basket which really did not have all that much stuff in it. I put away some of my hand embroidered pillow cases--stuck them in with the embroidered dish towels in the dresser in the bathroom. I found a bunch of grungy looking towels and dish clothes that had been in a blue walmart bag. They must have been in the porch and got hauled down at some point. They've been sitting in the laundry basket for quite some time.
I moved the Barbie doll furniture from the tote with no cover to another tote WITH a cover and then made another tote with just the Tonner sized furniture and accessories in it. I moved them to the doorway between the bathroom and the furnace room. Tomorrow I will put them in there in the shelves. There are a couple boxes and totes in there that I have to go through, but I will wait until I get more shit out of the porch. I really want to get that done. Tomorrow will be a big "porch" day. I have my three little Precious Moments dolls which are in the garb of South and Central American indigenous peoples. One is "from" Peru. I don't remember which ones the others represent....but they are so dang cute. They were not cheap either.
I have a few other dolls up there that have to come down too.
I've been thinking of selling the Saucy Walker doll if I can get a couple hundred bucks for her. She's cute, and I like her...but I don't have a real emotional attachment to her. And I am so fucking broke right now. By supper time I was feeling pretty damn hungry--and I was thinking how good a pizza would be...but I have a single one dollar bill and a crap load of change. We had popcorn for supper again. And after mom went up to bed after America's Got Talent, I ate two of my little tapioca pudding cups and a couple of nutty bars.
I finished reading the book After, by Francine Prose. It was a sort of dystopian novel. It was about how the school in a town turns into a fascist prison-like place as they try to control the student body after several teachers and students are shot and killed in a nearby school. I would have thought it completely unrealistic before the Bush Jr. presidency, but now....Now anything seems possible with the Republican Fascist Party.
After I finished the book, I worked on another little Valentine dress--this one with a full skirt and moderately puffy sleeves with cuffs for the wardrobe of Chryssie. I will probably finish it tomorrow if I have some sit-down time.
Because I didn't really eat anything today, I didn't take any of my major medications. As a result, my knees hurt pretty bad tonight. Tomorrow I HAVE to eat, whether Mom is eating or not. I also really need to take a bath.
Mom was a little better again today, but as night came on she was hacking again. She has decided to skip her Bible study tomorrow because she doesn't want to give this miserable cold to Marge, the leader, who is quite elderly or to Sherry, who is battling cancer.
I can't think of anything else of interest to discuss.
Stewie is pressed up tight to me, so I am hoping he wants to cuddle when I finish this entry. I really need a good cuddle session tonight.
My life is pretty fucking bleak at this time. Things may look up once I start collecting a little unemployment. Right now, I feel completely powerless and helpless.
