Just a picture taken off the internet of Lake Ellyn and the boathouse. I don't have any recent photos of Glen Ellyn.

Again, I took extra anxiety medication early this evening. I tried going without it, but I was really irritable and angry. I talked to Michael for awhile and I'm less mad. He's going to try the test again Tuesday and then probably come to my house after that. I just don't deal with stress well... I wish I could find a new way of dealing with things. A lot of suggestions for dealing with negative feelings don't really help me. I don't calm down easily. Michael's patient with me, so I have to be patient with him, too. I'm about to start reading Asperger Syndrome and Anxiety with Beauty and the Beast playing in the background.

Soon someone is coming out to work on my electricity and such. An electrician was here a little while ago, but there's someone else she needs to contact to fix things. This house is just so old... I feel really awkward when strangers are at my house. I have no idea what to say and usually just say "hello," answer questions, and continue what I'm doing.

Last night I had a big anxiety attack over finances and a few other things. I kept calling my mother and Michael. I took my anxiety pills 3 times yesterday (the maximum I'm supposed to take them). They did help, though. However, I woke up today feeling pretty sick. I have a stomachache so I probably won't eat much today. I did have oatmeal at 8:30am. My mother is over at my house now preparing for the tiling I will help her with. I really hate working on the house... I'm not physically strong and my motor skills are poor for these kind of activities (like unscrewing things). Despite my artistic tendencies, I can have shaky hands. That's probably one reason I often prefer a more Impressionistic/Post-Impressionist approach to my paintings. I'm still in my pajamas since I feel sick and there's no point in dressing up to tile my kitchen floor.

Michael and I just measured my kitchen to put down the new flooring we will buy tomorrow. My mother will do most of the hard work:-( I feel bad about it. I'm so bad at some of this house stuff... It is my birthday present from her. Hopefully this new tile will be easier to clean, but the tile that's there now is ancient. Also I found out from my mother that stoves/ovens cost about half of what I thought they did and I think she'll buy us a new one when this (very, very old) one dies finally. It doesn't work great, so sometimes we use my mother's oven/stove. I feel like we are finally making this our home. We still have much work to do, especially since Michael will be moving in. I hope we have room for everything. I have more stuff at my mother's stuff (trinkets and collections) that I'd ideally want to bring back here. But I have an idea for rearranging a few light tables.

Home now. The problems I had with a friend have been resolved. I threw them an amazon.com gift just to cheer them up a little more, not just over me:-) I have temporary amazon prime and I'm trying to put it to use. Though I do plan on buying next to nothing that's not "necessary" this month. I feel relaxed being home. I unpacked already. I've read a lot lately but didn't have much creative opportunity. I'm going to do an oil pastel of flowers while watching dvd's. I'm going to finish a short story today, maybe first. I still feel worried about another friend, but I offered my help when needed. My cats missed me, I think, while I was gone.

My chemise arrived yesterday when I ordered it Thursday! Amazing! If I get my corset in a month I will make it in time for the Renaissance Faire♥
