#SpoonManagement

Feeling fucked today. As restful as it was catsitting, I still find it tiring to be out of my routine/space. Which I find pretty frustrating and upsetting.

But, I'm taking some advice from Star Trek and having some downtime today, even though I'd rather be doing stuff!

A swirly blue, purple, and black background, as if someone stirred up a nebula. In white capital letters in the middle it says "All starships need time in dry dock, and all crew need R&R, downtime is essential to wellbeing." It comes from a collection of Star Trek inspired affirmations.

Much needed snail day with knitting and Star Trek!

#StrangeNewWorlds #RestDay #SpoonManagement

A large TV with the opening credits to Star Trek Strange New Worlds on it. There is a tall lamp, a large plant, and a plain white wall with art on it behind the TV. The stand it is on also has pretty bits of wood and a couple of candles on it.

Slept for 9 hours, still exhausted.

Snail day today: staying in my shell and moving slowly when movement is necessary!

Oooooh, the tiredness has caught up with me. Slept for nearly 3 hours this afternoon, then early cried making a simple salad for dinner!

Lots to process, down time needed.

Nesting with Taskmaster, knitting, and Callisto, my squishy axolotl 😍

In the foreground on a shiny purple fleece blanket is some green, yellow, and orange striped knitting on fine metal double pointed needles. Next to that is a black soft toy with a purple and pink belly with a crescent moon and two stars. Behind that is a laptop showing the opening credits of the TV show Taskmaster.

#SnailDay

I've planned to try to go to Glasgow again tomorrow to see folk. I'm not going to repeat the mistake I made last week where I did way too much the day before. I'm going to rest today and conserve my spoons for tomorrow.

See, I do learn, eventually! 😂

#RestDay #SpoonManagement

A faded, pale bluey-grey snail shell lying on the ground among small sticks and old leaves. I spotted this on my morning walk today, and am using it as a reminder to slow the hell down today. Shell time is calling!

I really wanted to make custard and crumble yesterday but I was too tired by dinner time to do anything but make dinner. So I'm going to make/prep it now while I have energy!

#SpoonManagement #NotJustAHatRack!

On a grey kitchen worktop next to a cooker is the following: a jar of caster sugar, 3 egg yolks in a plastic tub labeled "3 yolks", a pot of double cream on top of the eggs, a tub of cornflour, three cooking apples, a large plastic container of flour, and a glass container with a small amount of crumble topping in it and a thing of butter on top. Making custard and apple crumble for later.

I had therapy this morning, and had to go to the shops and do a few other jobs. Total spoon wiper day. So grateful to Past Me for baking these yesterday!
