These last two days have been exciting. I\u2019ve applied for an extension to my Big Project (actually for funding to finish it) and a friend has installed air conditioning for me, which means I\u2019ll be able to work even on hot days. Like today. All this took time and it\u2019s not quite finished. I\u2019ve got through it by eating cherries, mainly. Also, while my friends were doing the installation, gradually tidying my place for Chanukah. This saves me a lot of work today, tomorrow and Thursday but it left me in pain and\u2026 I had to sleep until the pain wore off. Juggling installation and Chanukah and chronic illness can be fun. I woke up just in time for lunch and then realised I\u2019d missed my whole Tuesday morning. But my basic housework is done a day early and Chanukah is on its way and I\u2019m so close to ready. I have to run messages tomorrow, that\u2019s all.<\/p>\n
The time is the tricky bit. I caught up with all the things I had meant to finish by late yesterday and then looked at the clock and it told me I\u2019m several hours late in writing this. I have the best reasons, however, and the airconditioning is bring the temperature down to one that doesn\u2019t cause more pain and so I will be able to work into the evening.<\/p>\n
I was going to talk about meaningful things today. I had them all planned. Instead, I need more rest. My body has announced this to me, using strong language. I shall watch science fiction television for a bit. It\u2019s work, but not hard work. It will have consequences next year, but doesn\u2019t solve any issues today.<\/p>\n
And then I will go through all kinds of odd scraps of paper to find out what 9 am in my diary for tomorrow means. I have no idea\u2026<\/p>\n
May your life be more under control than mine this week, and may you be neither too cold nor too warm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
