Happy Hump Day!
I really buckled down yesterday at work and got a metric shit ton done - which made me feel really happy since I had been starting to worry about my mental capacity lately. I worked solidly from 8am until lunchtime then took the dog for a lunchtime walk and was solid again until 5pm. I wasn’t even dead tired after work - it was just a good, strong day and I’m pleased.
This means that I am capable of concentrating fully.
I will say that my brain did the funky things it’s done before during my injury last night when I went to sleep - sometimes when my brain starts turning itself off before sleep I have a thought going and it completely gets jumbled and I have no idea where I was going with the thought. I’ve never had this experience before my carotid dissection and I actually first noticed it happening before I was sent to the ER and diagnosed. It’s a strange sensation because it’s almost like I’m on the edge of discovering something and then I have NO idea what my thought was about.
Brain injury stuff? I’m sure.
Notice there’s no Rate-A-Date today? My date actually made arrangements with me three times and blew them ALL in one way or another so I told him that it wasn’t going to work. He then asked me again if he was “out” and I explained to him…again…
Anyway. Today is Wednesday and I’m starting pretty strong again. I think Boss is happy with all of the stuff I accomplished yesterday (and emailed him about - he’s still traveling somewhere in Asia - not sure where he is now - oh…just found out - he’s in Northern China and sending me photos of the gross creatures he’s eating). I actually have a somewhat meeting-free day which means I can concentrate on some strategic stuff today. Yay.
Just got some WhatsApp texts from Best Bud. She’s in Vietnam right now as well and then traveling to Egypt this week. Said her trip is going well. I sort of miss my travels, but honestly, still glad I’m not flying to faraway places at all this year. In fact, I’m traveling domestically next week (finally!) and a tad nervous about that again! I know I can fly - it’s going to be fine - but something in me makes me nervous to be “away”, you know? These things take time, I guess.
What else, what else? I actually better get moving on some other things. I’ll be back later.
Love and kisses,
GS
