Ups and downs

[azziria]

Woke up feeling a little bit blue this morning. Not sure why, really - probably just me still being tired from all the travelling yesterday (oh how I hate going on aeroplanes!). And I got home to a seriously messy house. How come I’m apparently the only member of the household who is capable of carrying a mug into the kitchen, putting anything back into a cupboard, or pulling a flush? And I’ve got my mother and stepfather coming to stay this weekend, so the place has to be spotless by Friday afternoon. *sigh*

However, things have improved. Went for a checkup this morning, and my blood pressure is back down to being that of a 20-year-old once more. So that’s good. Plus, in the 3 days I’ve been away Spring has obviously arrived - we now have violets, Aubretia, grape hyacinths and peach blossom out in our garden. All very lovely.

Happy Spring! Oh, violets! *imagines the smell* Ours here are yellow, and they bloom later in the spring, last week of March or first of April, on the ridgetops.

I need that hike. Thanks for reminding me.

I get this after airplane rides as well, but I *love* to travel by plane! I'm pretty sure it's related to the immune system ramping up to fight off the various bugs encountered in the enclosed air of the flying tin can. I usually beat them, but I feel like life is pointless and hopeless for a day or two, until I get them all driven off.

*hugs*

Let your mother deal with seeing the mess, for once. Life's been too hectic, and when you were a little one, did she need to jet off to Switzerland for meetings, and still keep a neat house? I simply don't know how you manage, my dear!
