Taking Things Slow
May. 30th, 2023 10:29 pmI believe I'm getting better slowly. I definitely felt better two days ago, then yesterday I woke up and decided I didn't even want to go out in the garden without washing my hair, so I took a bath, and I was falling asleep in the bath. I rinsed my hair and laid down and slept for 7 more hours. Today I was not so tired, until I tried doing things and came back in for my rescue inhaler and to just sit for a bit.
This picture is from a couple of days ago. I took the leftover salad from some takeout and added some lilac flowers and dandelion petals. It sure made it pretty! I meant to add some of the basil seedlings, but that thought escaped me until after I'd eaten the salad. Dumb brain fog.
The brain fog is also making Duolinguo frustrating. I'm forgetting to finish sentences and forgetting the spelling of way too many words. It's worse this week than it was when I was sicker, which is doubly frustrating. If I'm feeling better overall, my brain ought to be working better too! But I'm pushing through that, since I know so little of what I have learned is solidly in long term memory that I'll lose a lot of ground if I don't.

Oh, and I paid the yearly renewal for the license plates before it was overdue. I have trouble feeling accomplished when getting so little done, but not paying a late fee is a good thing.
