Today, mostly brain fog and exhaustion and coughing. Thinking is painful. But not-thinking is hard. I got up for a bit this morning, made breakfast and stuck some English Paper Pieceing stars together while chatting in the Crafter's Zoom chat that's regularly on Tuesday mornings AEST.

And then I found myself unable to concentrate, so I hung up the washing I'd done earlier, answered a work call, and went back to bed for a couple of hours.
Waiting for lunch to cook now, because why heat up pumpkin-chickpea soup when you can heat up the frozen lasagne?
I'm resting more, but getting my brain to rest is harder. I'm used to thinking of things that need to be done even when I'm not necessarily doing them. Of course, thinking right now actually ends up giving me a headache, so I try to steer my brain towards darkness and non-thinky thoughts.
