When I woke up this morning it was clear to be that I was not going to be ready to return to work the following day. While I felt significantly clearer, there was still a heaviness that was unusual and not just related to the 8lb weight on my left foot. I was feeling good enough to get up out of bed and come out to the sitting room.
My family were going to a "story time" at the local library, and by the time it came to go, I decided to risk my sanity join them. It was fun and I appreciated being out of the house.
At lunch time I felt up to eating something more substantial than crackers and took a nap after lunch which seemed to help too.
I was actually feeling pretty good by about 4pm and decided that I would prepare dinner. I made up a meat sauce from scratch and boiled up some pasta. I even used tomatoes from our yard. I have to say that I probably over-did it because I was feeling a little "off" while the dinner was cooking. After eating and getting the kids to bed, things have calmed down. I think that a cup of hot tea will top off the evening and tomorrow I will be ready for feeling better again. I'm not returning to work until Friday afternoon - hopefully I will not need to reschedule that again.
