1 Load of Laundry Done Today

Today was a day of rest, recipe hunting, and a nap.

I’m still recovering from yesterday’s outing all over. It was great, but I am sore today. Like, my left hip is still hurting, feet are a little sore, and I woke up feeling mildly ‘hung over’ from overexertion. I ended up waking up at six am again this morning, but was able to back to sleep.

I restarted reading Andy Weir’s The Martian. I got about a quarter of the way through the book this afternoon. I meant to crochet, but all my joints are just hurting.

I know that even positive stress can kick off a flare up, but being this exhausted, in pain, and foggy brained sucks. Getting and staying comfortable is a damn challenge. I’ve been trying to limit my NSAID consumption to no more than twice a day because of concerns I have over the long term effects it can have on my body.

I had a sandwich and chips and salsa for dinner. And indulged in a cup of sugar free pink lemonade to wash it down. At least I ate a real meal. I was genuinely contemplating just having popcorn for dinner.

I knocked out all of my homework before seven pm today! Woo hoo! I’m still so proud of myself for making the Dean’s List.

Anyway, it’s late and I want sleep.

Take your meds, folks.
