Skillz

[serene]

I am learning how to use my medications to maximize the amount of usable time I'll have in each day. This is a skill I never wanted to have to learn, but that I'm happy to have learned.

Today, this meant I was able to cook breakfast, start a pot of beans, go do laundry, do some homework, take a long walk, and make cornbread before the meds wore off. Now that they've worn off, my physical work is pretty much done and I can drive to the potluck/poetry reading tonight and just rest my tired, sore body. Could be worse!

Which reminds me: if you're local and a woman, there's a poetry reading tonight that you may want to attend. I'm giving a friend a ride, and we could add you if you wanna go. Details at https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=304971229606267&id=188016744635050

Kudos. It sucks, but it's an important skill. We've been learning how to schedule around C's meds, and it often makes a serious difference in what can be done and what can't.
