So how have you been for the past six months? Me? Apparently sick.

Every memory I have of events and non-home sick time involve them being viewed through the lens of not feeling well in some capacity or another. Whether in the zone of coming down with something or the slow inevitable attempt to recover, I think back to the holidays and various outings and such and wonder why they seemed so off. I've been gently reminded of why things seemed that way.

It's a bit weird to have that revelation.

The plan after this latest round dissipates is to visit the doc for an overview. And probably a review of diet and exercise.

Illness aside, things haven't been too bad. I've been getting a fair bit done between bouts of not feeling well. But I certainly realize how much more I could be doing if I were 100%.

Guess we'll see how it goes. I'm not looking forward to chest cold number 4.

It's hard when the "not feeling well" becomes the current status quo so the filter of it is forgotten. How easily we become used to things and forget that they weren't always this way. I get it.

May the doc help you figure out whassup...

Good realization, even of a less-than-good truth.

*hugs & hope*

I'm reasonably hopeful, though we shall see. *Hugs*

I hope that you will be able to leave this time of more off than on behind.
Try to not compare the things you get done to what you *could* be doing.
You are doing all you can right now, no need to feel bad or guilty about it on top of all that.
*hugs*

It would be a nice change. I've been chasing wellness long enough that I'm starting to forget what it is! *Hugs*

I struggle with this same type of realization-of-wellness and disquiet regarding productivity. I'm slowly learning to interpret it as the need for mindfulness kicking me in the shins. I hope you climb out of chest cold number 4 quickly.

Mindfullness is useful. :-) I'm on the cusp of some personal changes that have been long wanting and waiting, and it is interesting how my body has decided to encourage me to move forward. :-) Hope your struggles yield progress. And thanks! I'm kinda done with struggling to breathe.
