The Lamps Have Been Canonized!

Woke up with double vision, brain fog, and just all-around feeling out of it. No work for me. :( Went back to sleep for a couple hours, but throughout the day I had the same light sensitivity and fatigue as yesterday. I'm tempted to refer to all of the light fixtures in my house as "Saint" -- they each have a halo! Other visual disturbances confirmed my suspicion that I would not be driving today. Thank God for Peapod!

Watched (or listened to) several more episodes of Jeopardy! When in doubt, the answer is either What is Pygmalion? or What is the Bactrian (two-humped) camel?

Got to video chat with some friends at school who have brought Invisible Disability Awareness Week to our seminary! Learn about Spoon Theory below!

Thankful for all of the Spoon Collective's hard work over the last several months to make this happen, and to make visible the invisible. They have had a lot of students, staff, and faculty sign up already to be on the email list, wanting to become better allies to those of us who live with chronic illnesses and disabilities.

Salt. Water. Breathing. Ibuprofen. Ice packs. Tiger Balm. Spark. Doing what I can with what I've got. Gonna kick POTS in the patootie.
