I have returned home to the northland (north is relative) from visiting my parents, and am recovering from travel. I'm also without a car (it has no breaks) which is a good thing. It means I can't run out and do even a small errand, and therefore am forced to stay home, rest and recover.
I'm not having a terrible crash from my trip (yet). I'm not feeling great either, but nothing extreme. On the other hand, as often happens in the summer, the POTS is terrible. Just a quick walk out to the back garden had my heart rate at 165 and BP 99/70. I checked it when I came in the house as I had that 'desperate' feeling I get, like I just have to lay down (shaky, head pounding, light-headed).
My gardens are coming along, meaning I may get some veggies in late August and September, fingers crossed. Watching my plants grow is one of my favourite things about summer.
And I will (at some point) post a few of the photos I took at my parent's.
Here's a little photo and video of a rabbit at their place in the mean time.
I am making progress on my dissertation writing, it is slow going, I'm not happy with what I've written on the whole, but it's getting there nonetheless.
Love the bunny! So sweet. I was so sorry to read about your parents' recent health struggles. It's so hard for anyone to see one's parents health decline, but even more so when you have your own health issues and are thus limited in what you can do to help. Thinking of you and hope you get some much needed rest. Look forward to seeing more photos when you are up to it!
