Overloaded
I tolerated my trip to Las Vegas better this time than any other since my injury. I learned a good strategy and wore my sunglasses inside and out. I lost my hearing aids. I had lost them before and found them again... Then put them where they would be safe but now I can't remember where that safe place is. The good side of that is I couldn't hear much in Las Vegas except just a dull roar.
Even so, the fatigue factor is still in place. I can't seem to get rested up. I have not finished the May Handmaidens although it is readable and there are some complete pages. And of course I have missed several days of my journal. The house needs cleaned, the laundry needs washed, and all I want to do is sleep!
Today, I discovered a major mistake I made before leaving for the wedding. In figuring our money I forgot to take into account automatic deductions for insurance and other payments so have over drafts on one of our accounts. Although it is into as big a disaster as January when I forgot to pay any bills, this latest mistake is wreaking some financial havoc. It is never a good thing for me to hurry!
It is early for my blog, (Iactually wrote this before 6:00 p.m.) but I am out of energy for the day and if I wait, it won't get done at all. Now that I am sitting here talking to my iListen and letting it type my blog, I am feeling better.
Yesterday, I got nothing done but had a good time doing it. Actually, I did go to Women of Grace in the morning at Melonee's. She was the hostess for May and opened her beautiful home to us all. I also had an appointment with Dr. McCormick to meet with the brain injury ladies group. I would never have guessed how much help that is to me. I learn from them and am inspired by them.
Oh yes, I have to be "deposed" on June 1. I am concerned they will ask things I can't remember, or even if I know the answer, I am afraid I might not think of it right away. It doesn't take much to mix me up and when I am nervous I say the wrong words or can't think of the names of things, etc.
Well, it's good to "speak" with you again.
