A Bad Week
|
 |
We actually went to the pub last Friday night, which was the first time in a long while. But I wanted to see if some of the things I talked about at OZC could apply, especially the self monitoring and relaxation stuff. It seemed to work. We came early and left early (at about 9:30pm) but that was our choice and it was very busy. So I think that was a success.
Since then has not been so good however. On Sunday we drove over for lunch with a friend in Norfolk. We stayed too long gossiping and I could really feel it when we left. This was my fault: I didn't have the watch going (impolite to have it beeping I thought) so I failed to spot the warning signs. Ho hum.
Monday was better. I didn't feel so good during the day but in the evening I felt good and wrote some code for the first time in a while. The results can be seen here. 90% of that I wrote on Monday evening lying on the sofa - and felt good throughout.
Tuesday morning I felt fine, right up until about 11am when I had a serious dizzy spell in the kitchen. Sat on the floor in the hall for a while then retired to bed feeling nauseous and dizzy. I thought it was going to be another seizure and I said as much to Beth. It almost felt like my brain was pulling that way but the drugs were holding me back. This lasted some hours and I really didn't feel right for the rest of the day. Wednesday wasn't much better and it wasn't until the evening that I felt vaguely with it and dragged myself to a parish council meeting (actually Beth drove me there, which is a give away in itself, as I usually walk, and I got a lift back).
Thursday I felt better but still not that good and here we are on Friday and I'm not feeling 100% again. Sigh.
It's all extremely frustrating. It worries Beth every time I'm like this and I'm getting very little done, either work or parish council or anything else.
