Today was both a long and fast day. I feel like I just woke up and now it’s 11:30 and I should be in bed. But I also feel like it should be Wednesday, but it’s only Monday!! Weird! I’m exhausted and kind of nauseous still. And, it’s hardly news, but my face hurts tonight. It seems to be more of the “norm” for me, which is why it’s turned into a given. (Does that even make sense??) My first drawing class was tonight. I have the same instructor as last session and I was still one of the slowest in the class! I have homework that I have to do for next week. My goal is to do a little each day. The skin on my hands, especially my thumbs  is so dry that it’s cracking. Yuck! (I don’t know why I told you that…I’m just typing on my iPad and all I see is my dry thumbs!) Time for some moisture gloves for bed. I’m really stretching trying to find something to write about. I’m just so tired tonight that I feel kind of like my brain is on that mode on your computer when it’s not “shut down”, more like it’s sleeping or something. That’s how I feel. I’m only partially here, the rest of me is on sleep-mode. I’ve started reading the book by Cameron Diaz called, “The Body Book.” And I’m pleasantly surprised. (Did I already write about this??) I don’t usually buy books written by actors/actresses. I have this bias in my head where I believe that stars just write books because they can. Even if all it contains is fluff! I’m not sure if that makes any sense, but I just get judgmental I guess. I think that it doesn’t really matter how well written the book is or is not, they will be able to get it published based on who they are, regardless of content. And, generally, I don’t read biographies much, they just don’t really interest me. The only reason I picked it up is because I was killing time at Shoppers he other day and I saw it in their book section. As soon as I picked it up, it felt right! Now, that probably doesn’t make sense to non-book-lovers, but just the texture and the way it felt was nice. I read the synopsis and it really appealed to me. So, I bought it! And, so far, I’m glad I did. I’m really enjoying it and love her tone as she talks about health and food and energy and life and information and loving your body and caring for your body. I have a bad relationship with my body. I don’t much like he current shape of my body, but what I mean is that I think I’m angry with my body for always being in pain…does that make any sense?? So, I’m hoping that this book will remind me to take care of my body and be kind to my body and my whole self. So, I’ll keep you posted, but so far I’m really enjoying this book! Hey! I found something to write about! Usually happens when I stop trying so hard – lol!! I’m off to bed now. It’s too late! I wanted to go to bed earlier! Oh well. Goodnight all!!
