(no subject)
After my spectacular crash yesterday, in which I spent the whole day in my PJs until finally showering and dressing at about seven to go down the road to be in easy company and do some low-difficulty stitchwitchery (I made a thing!), I managed to Do Lots Of Things again today. Well, after getting helpfully pushed out of bed, at least.
There was another meeting, and I was useful again in being a moderator of the 'and now back to what we need to decide' sort and 'here's a way to make this decision' sort. I brought my breakfast in my pocket and got machine-tea (next time I'll bring a teabag and portable mug and use the hot-water-dispenser in the SCR, I think), and then I could brain.
('It's worth it to spend money on things that make me more functional' is a mantra I have to repeat to myself a lot. Grr, brainweasles. Heating, tea, snacks, chocolate, public transport... These things are frivolous but sometimes neccessary. Things which make me happy are things I should keep in my life, even if indulging makes me feel guilty.)
Now I think I shall lie down for half an hour or so before I have to head off to the next meeting of the day, and then I can find useful things and pack my kit for AoI tonight. I'm feeling quite drained again. I'm trying to find a balance as to what I can actually manage of a day and every other day, and listening to my body when it's saying 'just give me a minute, would you?' is part of that. Also pushing a bit further to complete a task that will make future things easier, and judging how the 'task left uncompleted' drain balances against the 'not resting right fucking now' drain.
Speaking of such, rest!
