blondeviolin Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I am not feeling like doing schoolwork with the kids today. I don't feel like cleaning. My house is falling apart, my kids NEED to do something or they're arguing. I feel like crud after being in the hospital this week for an asthma flare. My husband is working long hours this week... I'm stubborn because it's all stuff that I can do; I'm just slow and unmotivated. Nobody really knows I was in the hospital. I'm getting better and don't really want any pity/sympathy. I just want to be better again, go on my walks, and live a vibrant life. Recovery is slow and I'm improving, but it all feels pretty gray... Where is the pause button so I can take a nap without things falling apart further? 😫 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanny Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hopefully it will be like recovering from surgery. Each day, one is a little stronger and is more comfortable than the previous day. Take it easy... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spryte Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 That stinks. I'm sorry. You're not alone. I have pneumonia, and have been really sick for three weeks now. Today I feel mildly better but not motivated to clean or do much. Can we give each other permission to be sick, and take time to really recover? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Since it is a holiday weekend, i say take off a day early and give yourself permission to just relax and recover. (((hugs))) It will be much easier to make up a day when you're healthy, than to keep trudging along when you are sick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
