oh is it ever beautiful outside. The tree outside in the front is not green but coating with white sugary snow and i's red berries decorating the scene. It is so pretty. I will try to post a photo-but i am so usless at that.
reading Justmekids's blog got me thinking about being extra sensitive to stimulation-for me it is the noise and visual stimulation that I cannot stand. I cannot bear to be in crowded places, esp a mall or sea of people. I cannot stand bright lights and noises that come from different sources or even music sometimes-it gets to be too much noise. Since we moved to the burbs I am so much calmer in my head-it is so peaceful and quiet here and just going back to the city makes me tense despite the fact that I always have a good time. I adore the quiet or the sounds of birds-which are too much sometimes as well. I need to have low lighting in the evening and I cannot stand a light source from another room or location coming into my space. Open doors drive me insane-I need everything to be orderly and clean and calm looking-which is why I am often going around my house and my life pissed off at R because he is someone who lives in chaos (whether he likes it or not). He does not care about mess or noise or disorder or too many people around him. He really wants to move back to the city. He doesn't really seem to get just how stressful I find a chaotic environment to be becasue it doesn't bother him. I am wondering if this is a woman thing-the being over-sensitive to certain stimuli? To other people's moods?
