My goodness today has been unique! Dr. Ogden advised I stay home for two days and so I had to miss two tests and a project at school. I also have been dealing with the dizziness and today has been rather utterly boring. I've been home with nothing to do. I wrote a little and I read the ending in two books. I had a bowl of steamed broccoli for lunch and have eaten two apples.
I really have been trying to deal with this dizziness but it seems stubborn in its assault on my brain. I cleaned my room up a little and started some laundry.
It was such a beautiful day today with the sunshine and the warmth!!! I opened up almost all of the windows in the house and it was amazing. I completely loved it and I'm very glad that it was so wonderful despite me being so home bound. I also found one of the screens for our basement windows and fitted it in (except one stubborn corner). It has been positively LOVELY having the window open downstairs as it never really gets properly aired out.
Guess what else I did today? I saved a spider's life. As I was going to open the windows I pulled the blinds up really hard. Something black fell out. Ack!! Spider!!! Freaked me out!!! I stared at it as it just huddled on its spot on the floor. I thought "I need something big to squish it!" but after a moment I realized I just couldn't kill it. The guilt would've been too overwhelming. So I called Hope and she placed a jar over it (I had this horrible image of it jumping towards me in my head) and then I took it outside and set it free. I just can't kill things deliberately. It's just not my nature.
Later Dad had me get up and go to the store with him and the two little girls as a chance to breathe outside. It was good, except the part where it made my episodes worse and it was uncomfortable trying to not fall over.
I saw DAFFODILS!!! Oh how my soul was fed! It was such a wonderful sight and it made my day. The daffodils my mom planted haven't bloomed yet and I've really been wanting to see them show their glorious faces.
So today wasn't really a bad day, but it looks like I'm missing more school tomorrow. It's one thing to not have a car to use, but it's entirely different when you CAN'T drive. It's so hard having my wings clipped over this couple days.
Thank you God for the warm sun, green grass, and brilliantly yellow daffodils!!!
