Goodnight friends! First day in a decent while where I haven’t been able to get out at all. Feeling deeply drained and aching from within, a chilly radiating pain that seems to start deep inside my bones. I think the extra activity of the blood draw on top of judo yesterday, along with a drop in temperature and interminable, rattling cold rain today, really took it out of me. Light through the windows is a wrung-out second hand grey, the dark russet-purple leaves of the ornamental maple seem glistening sludgy black. A little dispiriting to feel so weak, but I did manage a few small household tasks and was able to relax fairly comfortably the rest of the day.
May we find solidarity and mutual support today!
