today...

My tumblr blog post for the evening, if anyone cares to read.

http://artlifehealing.tumblr.com/

Today has been ok for me. I got quite a bit done, despite having to lay down and take a nap.

I've been having trouble sleeping. I've been having nightmares. I know that has to be from focusing on the rapes. One was quite freaky though.

But it seems that every morning I am up insanely early. I was out of bed by 4:30 this morning, but actually awake before that. So, I get tired during the day. And it doesn't seem to matter how tired I am, the next morning, I'm up insanely early.

I started actually painting this mammoth painting for my grandson. It feels good to have gotten this far. It's quite the project, but I have over 2 months to get it done, so I should have it ready by the time he is born.

And when I did laundry this morning, I washed some baby clothes and blankets that my daughter and I went through the other day. STuff from when she was a baby. It's all exciting!

I have to finish up my homework tonight. My session isn't until Tuesday, but I don't want to leave it all until tomorrow evening. It is very hard.

I have to rewrite the one rape again. It is very triggering. I hate that I have to do this work.

But, at least, my mother's ex didn't show up here today. I am hoping he got the message I sent him by not calling or contacting him. I'd like to think that he won't stop here again. I guess we'll see. It has made it easier for me today, him not showing up. Yesterday, I had quite a bit of anxiety about it.

Anyway, I hope everyone has a wonderful evening.
