I thought that my motivation was on its way back – I have certainly felt better the last couple of days – but today I have been disappointingly idle (again). There are several things that I want to make some progress with this week:
- the bathroom tiling
- my car battery needs charging
- seedlings need to be planted out at the allotment
- I need to film, edit and publish my video review of Real Scientific Hemp Oil
- I need to write a script for a future vlog about Martha Orbach – the artist who watched my operation last year, and who is working on a project about Parkinson’s Disease and Deep Brain Stimulation. I recently received a copy of some of the drawings that she did (immediately following my operation) through the post, and both my wife and I are absolutely delighted with them
- I need to decide on a subject for this week’s vlog, and do the necessary research for the script
I’m feeling reasonably okay this morning (mood-wise). I drink my tea and Nutriblast, take the dog for her morning walk and then listen to PopMaster. I thought that I would either work on one of the vlog scripts, or do some tiling today, but I have failed. Extreme fatigue has me fighting off sleep again almost as soon as I return from my dog walk, and I achieve almost nothing today. I do manage to vacuum downstairs and then take the dog for her afternoon stroll, which is better than nothing (but only just). My tremor is back under control (mostly) and dystonia is less of a distraction. My voice is okay, as is my balance and walking. Muscular weakness and stiffness is tolerable.
