The monster in my head

Sometimes when I refer to the monster in my head I mean that misshapen being who misinterpreted so many things over the years which now tells me a lot of wrong messages based on those misinterpretations. I am working hard here to clear up some of those misconceptions–like food is my friend who entertains me or comforts me.

But the main monster that is giving me trouble right now is the one in charge of the mucus production facility in my head. It has gone bonkers and is way overproducing. I am constantly sneezing and my nose is running and I am not fit to be seen in public.

This monster went into overproduction last Saturday and I have been holed up in my apartment here ever since refusing to share this monster with the staff and other participants here. Selfish of me, I know, but I’m trying hard not to share this one.

The only people I see are the ones who deliver my food and medicines to me.

For almost a week now.

Most head colds last 7-10 days so I’m hoping my confinement will end this weekend.

In the meantime I have been sorting through the handouts from all the classes I’ve attended. I’ve been rereading many and doing unfinished homework from others and trying hard to teach my brain all the new things I’ve been learning here.

So it has actually not been a bad things to be confined to quarters.

But, I am ready for this monster and others to move on now.

TTYL,

Linda

  1. i blame it on the stupid weather all over the country!
    but… as you say… sometimes alone~time can be beneficial.
    at least you have meals delivered! that would be my idea of heaven.
    when i feel awful there are only two alternatives for me…
    open a can of some kind of soup and heat it in the microwave…
    or try to knock myself out with tylenol and sleep.
    turning onto one side when the other is stopped up. then turning… then turning.
    you know. you’re there.
    i hope you feel better soon! much love and a huge hug. xoxo♥

  2. Sometimes we all get a few little monsters in our head. The good thing is that they usually go away eventually. Hope it leaves you fast.

  3. You need Dave to check under the bed and in the closet for you. I know you think the monsters are in your head but you just never know. Hope you feel much better soon and can escape your room.

  4. I hope you feel much better soon and can enjoy the outside other places other than your room.

  5. this is one time when someone telling you to “Oh, go dry up” is a good thing, right? 🙂

    Get better quick.
