A shower! I have been wanting one since Wednesday. I had one
Tuesday, but still. Then Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Had hoped to
be ready for confession. Today. And, hopefully, again
tomorrow. Showers are magical devices, systems, services... whatever you
wish to classify them as.
Now to wait for the hair to dry. I might have one of those... well...
hair dryers? My mother may have left one. Or I got one for her
when she was here, one time or another? I'd have to look. Thing
is, I hate sound. I have become more like a cat. Quietude is
blessed. Louds noises are... annoying, or worse. Dangerous.
I don't know. I'd really like to go to bed. Then again, do I still
have the device? I'd have to look. Might be worth a quick little
partway thing, then let it dry the rest but much more quickly. If... I'm
not sure... is there a technique to using said devices? For all my
problems, I really don't know much about that side of the aisle... on certain
things. Weirdos... what all they do. But... okay, yeah.
I still haven't figured out what to eat. I'm thinking just a fatted
coffee, with added protein powder. That stuff is helping. From
hair to nails to muscle and joints, I think. Really. Skin?
Actually, I think it made skin weaker... at least for me. Still, it's...
foodgrade stuff, that helps.
Oddly, still, my left rear ribcage... the skin... feels like it is sluffing
off. Not sure what the problem is. That and the ribs in there
being 'tickled' in a most uncomfortable way... my only complaints. So, I
suppose I shouldn't wine, but it is fairly gnarly, and unusual, as far as
sufferings. Meh, still quite pleased to have another thing to sort out,
and turn in to the collection plate. God takes it all, good and bad.

ReplyDeleteYou are hardly alone in this. It's another reason I avoid crowds and places such as malls. I've been feeling better ever since I moved out of Goose Creek, South Carolina with its constant symphony of sirens. Here, in a small Texas town, it is much quieter (with the exception of the occasional freight train passing through the town). If I sit on my porch, and relax for a bit, I begin to hear all the small sounds associated with my surroundings. I can hear the movement of people in the small apartment complex. The birds, and the distant call of livestock from the ranch across the street. And, should I need more peace and quiet, there's the dark solitude of my room and my books.
Yes. Birds, too, here. Goats, cattle, a few cars... always a few vehicles. Our train is a goodly distance away, so the lowing of cattle and bleating of sheep and whatever it is goat noise is labeled... if disntant themselves, is still closer.
ReplyDeleteFor my part, the animals, train, even vehicles aren't overwhelming. And I can block them out, with or without thought. Though, if more ill than usual, I... won't hear them anyway. As well, I actually enjoy the birds and animal sounds.
But, yes. It sounds like you know my exact tune. *grin* Oh, and yes. It is amazing what you can hear, in a quieter world, when you care to listen. Even the hustle and bustle of people can be a comforting, or annoying thing, depending on mood. All my neighbors are far too far away for me to hear. Would have to electronically eaves drop, and that's... not my thing. I don't... care to know what I am pretty sure I already know. :p
