I get so lost in these forums and a slow connection keeps me from navigating swiftly and cleanly around them but by chance I ended up on this thread and I'm reading it with fascination and relief. :-D
Today is Tuesday but my feeling "off" started on Sunday with a lightheaded or detached feeling. It was like I was taking some sort of medication but I wasn't. . . I rarely do because I'm a bit sensitive to many and they make me feel "off" like that. LOL! I drove my Mom to a garage sale and then we stopped at an antique center where our intended look about turned into a two hour wander (how on earth!?) and left us both feeling fatigued and foggy. Monday I had to work for a few hours in the alpaca shop and even though I only fill in there once in awhile when the owner has to go away, I'm in a good element there and I always enjoy it and enjoy interacting with the customers and giving them a fun and educational experience. Well, yesterday i was just too out of it to be anything more than a dull checkout clerk and even at that it took me four tries to calculate the tax properly (on the one, single sale of the day) and that was WITH the calculator. I tried to be friendly and interactive but I was falling pathetically flat and couldn't even put two words together that made sense! LOL! I couldn't imagine what the heck my problem was. Now we are at Tuesday and I have literally been a slug all day. . . I haven't worked in the studio, I have some cool new jewelry supplies to try out and experiment with and I have no desire to work, I planned on pulling the stovepipe down for repair and that was my BIG job for the day and here I still sit after 4 PM and I *know* it really *has* to be done, but. . . I haven't even changed the litter pans for the cats or stacked any of the firewood that is waiting for me. I'm just stuck in this thick fog. Thank you for letting me know I am not wandering alone in it. :-)
