Doesn't leave me completely out of the process

Finding that cooking from a wheelchair is a TON easier when it is a group effort. Yum, meatballs~

Brain fog catch-up digest post - 8/19 - 8/22

After years of hearing others talk about it, I decided to try The Sims.

Figuring out how to make WooHoo work.

Spent the night researching the terrifying specifics of the Indian ocean.

Clearing out the fridge of leftovers by making fried rice & bentos.

Not doing Too Much for once

When I NEEDED to clean my kitchen, I did Just Enough, instead of Way Too Much.

Showered, shaved, and nails clipped

I accomplished all the personal grooming activities I needed to without falling, dislocating anything, or passing out.

This is a significant improvement over usual

Instead of flat in bed, I spent much of the day laying (mostly) upright on the couch.

I won't snark on your poor technique or bedside manner...

I did not snark at the couple of condescending nurses during IVIG therapy.

I've stopped crying and hyperventilating

When a large 8 legged creature showed up in my kitchen, I had a panic attack - but I DIDN'T stop breathing or have an asthma attack!

I was just sitting on my couch, playing a game

I did NOT have a panic attack when 2 bugs randomly landed on me.

I've never been so grateful to be annoyed

Seeing that my cat felt better enough to be a total pain in my ass.
