Today I went shopping in three places between 8:30am and 9:30am. I made a sponge cake. I went shopping at IKEA with the parents and bought a TV cabinet. I went to afternoon tea with some friends from my old church (hence the sponge cake).
And then I more or less collapsed on the couch.
Conclusion for today: I overdid it.
Having limited energy resources is a new experience for me, and a little terrifying.
It probably doesn't help that I'm on a course of antibiotics for the abcess, and am feeling a little better but obviously not 100%. I haven't felt 100% for a while, and I have to remember that I'm not going to for a while yet, so I need to look after myself.
It doesn't really help that I'm home alone this weekend (with only the cats). There's no-one to pick up the slack, and nobody on hand if I can't cope.
I've had my antibiotics and dinner. I'm going to stay up for an hour to give dinner time to settle. And then I'm going to bed.
