With all of my time spent traveling these past 4 months, I think that I have finally settled back in at home. Last night I went through a stack of papers that have accumulated by opening stacks of mail each time I came back home. I never really had a chance to sort through them properly and either file them, act upon them, or toss them in the trash. All I had done was opened all of the mail and pulled out the most important ones that needed immediate attention and let the rest pile up on the coffee table. Now I can actually see the glass panels on the table again.
Having stuff piled up makes me antsy and uneasy, because I know that I need to take care of the stuff. With all the mail taken care of, I now feel better and more relaxed.
I also went to the grocery store today. Now my cupboards and fridge are once again filled with food and food-like substances. That also makes me feel comfortable and relaxed.
