I’m feeling absolutely shattered today, in spite of an early night and good night’s sleep. My wife tells me not to overdo it, as she leaves for work this morning – I think that there’s very little chance of that! I’m struggling to stay awake by mid-morning, so I take the dog for a wander to see if some fresh air helps (and it does). I think it’s going to take me a few days to recover from the weekend – my tremor keeps breaking through on both sides, dystonia is pretty uncomfortable in my right foot, my voice is weak, and I’m feeling a distinct lack of energy. On the plus side, my balance isn’t too bad, my walking is okay, and muscular pain and stiffness isn’t too much of a problem.
The heatwave continues today, but at least there is a gentle breeze to take the edge off it. I refuse to complain that it’s too hot – we usually spend good money to go on holiday to somewhere as warm as this.
I take a short break from doing nothing to take the dog for her afternoon walk, and then have a quick tidy up and vacuum downstairs before my wife returns from work. Another early night, methinks!
