I expect this recent spate of posting is going to come to a quick end. The first recruitment visit I have to manage is this week, and they run until mid-March with only a two week break, and after that it's administrative deadline hell until mid-May, and then we get to start breaking in a new department chair. To that end, I'm trimming the flist ( Read more... )

It blows when that pesky real stuff interferes with LJ. But I am very happy you are taking the well deserved time to work on the well deserved self.

But what is this sleep of which you speak?

Taking care of yourself has to be number one (trust me, after 23 years of CFS I know whereof I speak!). Good to hear you're making it a priority. And it IS work and does take time and attention (and its own kind of energy). Sometimes stuff you care about has to go to keep on track. It sucks, but your health is all that matters. Be well.

Wait, LJ subscription? The pin thing, right? (Also, definite sympathy for the upcoming chaos! I'm always available for ranting!)

I so hear you, J, and commend you for the self-care effort. I, too, struggle with the necessity of doing things to keep myself functional in spite of it always seeming extraneous. We really are fragile creatures in ways, and given how much we all pack into our lives it's easy to think we're getting ahead when we cut corners in self-care.

Hang in there and continue to look for the joys (like the massages) in taking care of yourself!
