 Friday's appointment with Butch the trainer caused a bigger-than-normal bout of post-exertional malaise (a real thing! not just something that sounds like a Victorian lady with a delicate constitution would be diagnosed with!), so I spent Saturday completely wiped out and in excruciating pain. I'm feeling better today, but I know if I push myself to get a lot done, There Will Be Consequences. Stupid mortal shell.

I miss people. I miss people A LOT. But work and unpacking keeps taking so much energy that I know making plans to see people is fraught with uncertainty, because what if my body goes LOL NOPE? I'm hoping to see some folks for a THREAT LEVEL: PUMPKIN excursion soon, and someday Maura and I will manage to meet up for noms. Someday.

I was just about to poke you, you mind-reader. I guess I won't poke you just yet. Labor Day weekend is booked solid, not that I fancy my chances of getting down to you & back without a car on Labor Day itself.

But never mind me for a second. I'm over here hoping fervently that you get into a sustainable groove with the exercise. Do not give up, young lady.

I feel you on all of these points (granted, I do not have Butch pushing me to exercise, just a lot of physical labor tasks that must be done, with similar 'Do All The Things = SUFFER LIKE A HORROR MOVIE FOR THE NEXT DAY OR SO' sorts of ratios.

It will get easier as your body adapts. Lord knows things are getting easier to accomplish as I have been gaining strength from the tasks.

I miss people too, and have no clue when I will be able to even try to see people on a more than one on one basis.
