Week Ending 12/4

 Well, this has been a pretty good week. Which, objectively, seems odd to say but actually makes sense when I think it through... stay with me.

 This week has included one of my worst energy days in recent months. I massively overdid it Tuesday (I don't even remember how... though I do recall that taking a shower while I was so tired my legs shook) and Wednesday was a complete and total write off. I woke up Wednesday and immediately said "nope, not doing it." I spent almost the entire day in bed and didn't even try to get motivated.

 This week has included one of my best energy days in recent months. It turns out nearly 36 hours of bed rest result in feeling pretty darn good the next day. Who wouldda thunk? Thursday was great... I felt good. My head was clearer than it's been in ages. I managed to get some things done and feel very accomplished. I still crashed around 1:00 pm, but since I've been crashing around 10:00 am most days lately, 1:00 pm is phenomenal. 

 Taken together, those two days has made this a great week. Not just because Thursday felt terrific but because Wednesday did too in a completely opposite way. Yeah, I was totally wiped out... but I accepted it and I didn't try to force myself to feel any other way. I said "nope, not doing it" and I didn't. I let myself rest and get better and I felt good for it. 

 Now, if I could just remember that little bit of wisdom going forward, I think I'll be the better for it.

 Onward
