Still weary

The sleepiness has still been hitting big time today. I've been fighting it more, but it hasn't been easy. I did some genealogy and sewing and laundry this morning, and got out into the garden to water the plants. That was before it started raining...
This afternoon I went to the gym. Everything was such hard work - my legs felt like lead. I did a reduced workout. Then I went and picked up the girls (and gave lifts to two of E's friends) - and managed to go to the local Church cafe / shop to drop off 10 of my bags in the hope that they can sell them for me, in which case I won't need to give up several Saturdays to run stalls. Here's hoping.
This evening I have taken H into town for a meal with his friends, and done some more genealogy and some more cutting up of denim ready for more bags. Got two more yummy bag making books tomorrow so I now have a very wide range of patterns to use! Tomorrow I'm going down to London to do some genealogy research - unless I change my mind before then...

If that's what you do on a 'tired' day...it's more than i do on a good day!!! Be gentle with yourslef!! When my parents were very ill and died a couple of years ago...during and after I did little or nothing apart from cope with work..I came home and slept on the settee and my husband had to shop and cook and iron..(no bad thing) as my whole system was recovering..this went on for months. You are doing brilliantly!!!!!

Absolutely agree with Sally....Tons and tons done, - no wonder you're wiped out. I know you kind of judge your performance on the amount you achieve each day, but I do think you underestimate just how much that is.
You're off work to /rest/ as well as to rethink your strategies for life.
Take care x

I hear you all.

I just don't know what to do about it.

Even while I have been at my worst I have carried on doing housework stuff to some extent. I'm just not allowed to give up. And I am tired of being ill and needing to be careful. And scared...
