I have been back in my house with power for a couple weeks now but my, “bounce back” has still not happened fully. I am not going to lie, it concerns me a little bit. There isn’t anything to do but just wait it out.
Abrasions on my elbows and bruises on my backside have since subsided but my speech is still affected. I’m not sure if it’s the heat or just a side-effect of me trying to get back to my, “Normal.” It frustrates me to realize how slow the recovery process really is!
As of late, in the past few days even, I cannot seem to remain awake during the day. These. “Naps” are really just me, “Passing out” in my wheelchair. I never know when it is going to happen and I don’t know that it has happened until I wake up.
It’s my, “Thing” to watch the same movies over and over again. Right now, I am watching Pride and Prejudice. I swear that I was born at the wrong time because I absolutely love it and I wish I could play the piano. I fell asleep during a large portion of the movie today but I awakened just in time to see Mr. Darcy profess his love for Elizabeth.
Sean has seen me watch Pride and Prejustice and/or Seanse and Sensibility and I let him know when I am watching scenes from a dance that really, it smells pretty badly in there because back then, they didn’t place much importance on personal hygiene.
Maybe I would rather NOT be born in that time period but I love these movies! I think I just love being lost in the romance of the movie because it’s so different from my life right now. At least it helps me think about something else other than my VERY slow recovery.
