Missed A Day

mousme I got up early and took Peggy for another run in the fields, but even at that point I had a mild headache (which I'd woken up with), and nothing I did seemed to shake it.
KK came over for a couple of hours, ostensibly to keep me company/be a "body double" while I worked, but I was so tired we ended up sitting on the sofa most of the time she was here, discussing plans for her moving in. I think she was tired too, because she went home after a few hours, and then I went to bed at 6:00 and slept the whole night. I woke up just after 1:00 with my head still hurting so I took some Tylenol and put in my mouth guard. I awoke briefly again at 6:00 am, and ended up getting out of bed at 6:30.
I've had a slow day. I took Peggy out again, and I have to say, it is an utter joy to watch her be able to run full-tilt in the fields. It's what she was built for, and I kind of feel bad that I didn't take her out more this winter. I'm going to have to figure out a better way to get myself out the door with her in order to let her have a full run if not every day, then at least 3-4 times a week. I think having KK living here may actually help with that: for one thing, there will be two people here to take on household responsibilities, which should free up a little bit of time for me, and more importantly having someone else here is likely to keep me more accountable about my commitments. Accountability seems to work better for me when it's external.
I can feel the headache still lurking, so I am thinking that a nap is in order. I am behind in my plans to declutter the house, unfortunately, but I think even if I take today really easy, I can still manage to get most of what I want done by the end of the week.
