Did anyone notice that my #9 daily post was incorrectly named Weekly Post? I think that was the start of my downhill trajectory with fatigue. I did not post yesterday. I had trouble in the morning, so I slept in and missed church. I had a mostly uneventful day and then I was in bed before 9. And then this morning slept until 10. So you know, fatigue has officially set in. And the timing of it was unexpected, but it makes sense when I recall all the activity last week. My body is in recovery mode. This is the price you pay for doing fun things when you have M.S. I don’t care for it, but I’m not going to stop doing the fun things. I need quality of life, even if it comes in spurts and stutters. I can handle the down time. At least I have the dogs to keep me company.

This week I don’t have many events on the calendar, but I do have things I want/need to do. I’m making puppy chow for a family Christmas party, I still have some gifts I need to wrap, and I want to make some roasted pecans. But before all that I need to get my kitchen clean again, and that takes energy I don’t currently have, so it will just have to wait. I’ll get there, eventually.

Since this was yesterday’s update, I’ll try to do another one tonight and get back on the regular. No promises.
