Today has been very chill.
I woke up around 9 because Scar was driving me crazy, so I fed him and went back to bed. I woke up and got up around 2.
I skipped my thyroid meds this morning. I had messaged my doctor, but not heard back yet. Likely related, I haven't had any hot flashes or bouts of sweating. My head also feels less... pressurized? I don't know. But I'm thinking that I might not need that medication anymore, or that I may need a lower dose. I'm going to see how I feel; plus I have a checkup in 2 weeks, so we'll see.
I watched some YouTube videos with Shaun today. We watched a few things and I didn't even scroll my phone for dopamine hits (nor did I feel the need to), so that is really nice. I can't remember the last time I was just able to do. one. thing. and it keep my attention.
After I did my office hours, we put on a show and I went through and put 2 more sets of my swatch sticks and locations into my database. I have considered doing one last ring of sticks to finish an entire helmer. It's out and sitting by me, so I might.
I didn't touch my app at all today. That's kind of a big deal because building the PWA is what led to this giant crash that I've been trying to recover from, so it's nice that I'm not going crazy on it. I do have some homework to do, class tomorrow, and also the class I'm teaching to prepare for. Maybe I'll get on top of my homework tomorrow. I dabbled in it a little bit today, but not much.
Anyway, the day is winding down and I'm getting tired, so I'm heading to bed soon. If I wake up early enough tomorrow, I might repot my indoor plants. We'll see. But I definitely needed this chilling out in a big way. It's weird to see that I can be productive without being stressed and that I can also be productive without pushing myself to the max. This actually feels sustainable, as long as I protect and budget my energy.
