And then there was time blindness

I went to bed at 10.30, slept well and woke up completely mushy in my brain. Which is what usually happens when I get enough sleep on top of a sizable sleep deficit.

I was slow first thing, did manage rather short morning pages but never got around to the rest of my morning routine. There was breakfast, I blinked and then it was noon. Or something.

I had originally planned to get a prescription renewed but that doctor’s office was closed. I asked at my GP’s if I could get the prescription there but no, only a gynecologist and prescribe that sort of meds.

So I bought some yogurt and went to the health food store.

Lunch was Indian, all cooked by my husband:

I took a break where I played silly iPad games, read a book and ate chocolate, then taught some students. I had one of these afternoons where I teach a bit, then have a break, then teach a bit. I was too foggy to actually do something productive with those breaks but I am enjoying the novel I’m reading very much. I did have great plans to look some stuff up and get myself thinking about blurbs and such but in the end I didn’t.

After my last student I couldn’t decide if I wanted to do bodyweight training or eat dinner first. I mean, exercising after dinner is always a bit uncomfortable but then I didn’t have much energy. So I sat around for an hour.

I did manage to trick myself into just starting the exercises, telling myself I could stop at any time. I’d just do these 10 reps first. Oh, and maybe the next ones as well. And then read a bit. And repeat.

Then there was dinner and more sitting around. And playing silly games. Until my „do the dishes“-timer rang. Very helpful that. Unfortunately, my „watch TV now“-timer rang right in the middle of washing up and then I still started writing this post but well.

I did watch some C-drama and did some half-hearted Duolingo and went to bed.

I’m hoping to get used to more sleep eventually. One of these days I’ll get my brain back, I’m sure.
