Hello fellow Mighty’s!
I apologize for the lack of post yesterday I was just really busy and exhausted while being in pain.
It doesn’t take much to tire me out and my energy levels are low recently since I need to use them all just to get important stuff done like appointments and sometimes basic self care.
I don’t know what to do about the overwhelming fatigue that I struggle with that has me constantly napping and falling asleep.
It’s very frustrating.
I have also been frustrated with my pain in my left knee but that isn’t something new; it’s just frustrating because I can’t even stand or use it for long.
I want to do things my body won’t let me do.
I’m pretty sure mostly all of us feel this way as well and it’s hard to focus on things that I can do instead of focusing on things I can’t.
I’m just very tired.
But I plan on painting something soon if I have the time for it; painting is relatively relaxing for me. 🦋
