Simplicity

I have been living simply these last few weeks. I only just began sleeping on a mattress again (one not full of air). I have no furniture, besides four kitchen chairs, a small table and an orange stool. I have my guitar, some of my clothes, and enough food to get me through the day. I've realized I have no reason to go to the store. I have water, tea, milk, sugar, left overs and mandarin oranges. If I wanted to I could go and get something else, but I have no desire to leave the house today.
I am working on one of my final assignments for school. At first I resisted it but I think I could use it one day, so I'm trying to put effort in now.
The internet is distracting, but not distracting enough when I really want to shut my brain off. I've been falling asleep with the computer on, and waking up so early. I don't know if it's the t.v before bed or merely because I am sick. My immune system definitely shuts down when I am stressed, and I'm surprised it took so long this time.
I am doing much better today than I have been. And I hope I keep feeling better each day. Although after every weekend I feel as though I've done a cleanse, and as I said to CT Monday rolls around and it's like I've eaten McDonald's after being so healthy all weekend. But I only have 3 more days like that. Then I can truly feel free, empty at times, but free nonetheless.
