ta to all who sent supportive comments. I do feel better than I have since Fri. It took a full 2 days but now I don't feel ill if my mind wanders across that conversation with my boss. This whole thing does mean I haven't been able to spend time considering whether to apply for a different job. Sigh, must do that, deadline Wed. Sometimes I am just too fragile. Need to be tougher.
Today though I have finally organised myself a comfy bed for when my parents visit. They come in about 10 days so deadline is met. This is a bed for me, not them. They get my big bed and I move into the dressing room. Much more practical. However I was SO NOT going to spend another fortnight sleeping on the foam guest mattress. That is fine for one or two nights but so not for a fortnight. So today I took the double bed that I thought might be the solution but I could not live with... back to I kea. Came home with a proper innerspring single mattress instead. I convinced J+D to meet me there. So I had pleasant company browsing and assistance with mattress wrangling.
I have also put stuff away in bathroom cupboards, cleaned the dressing room, washed my winter robe and slippers, had an almost nap on the new mattress. I'm glad I bought it a bit ahead of time 'cause it is pretty whiffy in a new plasticy sort of way. Needs to air.
Tonight I plan to make orange soup*. As in made from orange coloured vegetables as opposed to actual oranges. Much vegetable choppage coming up. I shall also make my favourite comfort food- fried cheese sandwiches (french toast made out of a cheese and mustard sandwich). I'd be thinner if I didn't like these so much. Then I get to read the new Phryne!
Tomorrow I go to work at a different desk. Not a new job, the department has moved again.
*nicer than it sounds. Also involves tomato, herbs and chilli.
