I set myself targets the day before, don't write them down and they're forgotten by the following morning. This means I should write them down and break the cycle until my brain processes things like it used to.
There has been a lot of things returning this week, I'm gaining the ability to taste and recognise flavours again which is nice - everything was so bland. I'm remembering some things which is useful. Another good thing is getting signals when I need the loo. At first things weren't great, but these days I'm doing pretty darn well which lifts that level of anxiety.
One thing which is new to the "things I've lost" pile is the ability to match the lyrics to the song. I'm hopeful it will return, but it's weird not being able to do it.
Something I'm thinking about - getting a blue badge for when we're out and about. I'm using a walking stick and get tired easily. So I'm thinking about it. However, there are several things that need doing first...
- phone DVLA as I can't drive for two years
- phone the insurance for the same reason
- I'm sure there are more but guess what? I've forgotten.
Lots of accounts on Instagram are posting videos which I can't watch. They move too quickly, they have subtitles that appear word by word (if you're lucky) and the camera work changes so much it hurts. I've had issues with this since I came out of hospital so I guess this is one of the "hope it sorts itself soon" things. I mean, I was sat in the car, it was dark and I needed sunglasses on as I'm too nosey to close my eyes for half an hour.
How do you get yourself out of the land of laziness? Write up a tomorrow plan and hope for the best, maybe?
