I always feel best in the mornings. My pain is at a tolerable level (less than 5 for those of you who like numbers) until early afternoon. It then steadily increases until I hit a wall sometime between 5 and 7 when I'm worthless. So I have a solution: become a morning person. Starting today, I'm not going to use mornings to rest and get ready for my day. I'm going to use mornings to do the things I need to do and take the afternoon to rest. I've already gotten a good start. I got home from class a little after 11. In the hour and a half since, I've brushed June, vacuumed the living room, washed the couch slipcover, loaded the dishwasher, swept the kitchen, and cooked poppy seed chicken. Productivity feels good. So does a clean apartment.
A second problem I have (I have so many.) is that the wall I hit most days comes around dinner time. I have to eat or I'll get even more sick, so I get really frustrated trying to find something to eat when I have 18 elves hammering on my brain. My solution: cook something in the morning that I can simply reheat for dinner. Tada! I love when I have great ideas.
On a sidenote, June is shedding. Like losing-all-her-winter-hair shedding. It's confirmed--she's not part poodle. She is an illegitimate puppy.
