Getting Resettled.
Nov. 13th, 2008 01:38 pmNow that I am back in my home environment, I can relax a little bit, at least in theory. I am surrounded by things that need doing, including getting this office chair fixed/replaced. (It turns out the reason
taxlady never remembers its broken is because it only tries to fall apart/kill you if you lean back in it, which she never does, but which is my usual habit.) Those projects can all wait until next week though, I think.
I'm going to spend the next couple days recovering from the trip, and planning what my next moves are with respect to projects, finding work, possibly going back to school, and the like, but mostly trying to calm down and relax.
This may not be easy as I'm also going to go to the Visitation for Emru, to say my last goodbyes. That will be the third one of these since 2005, and there would have been four, but I was out of the country when one of my other friends passed away.
Somewhere in all of this I also need to catch up on my NaNoWriMo novel, which may not be easy as it contains a major medical breakthrough that, if it really existed, would be able to cure leukemia. That part of it went in before Emru was even diagnosed, but I don't suppose its a total coincidence. So many of my friends have come down with life-threatening health problems over the years that some manifestation of my worry for them was bound to show up in my writing. So, I may find it difficult to write, but I shall do my best.
