All I want for Christmas is.......................................SLEEP!

And, maybe for my eyes to stop fluttering. Seems like sleep is all I want to do lately, no matter what time I get to bed or what time I get out of bed. I'm just so tired.

 

I drag myself out of bed on Mondays to go to Zumba class. It's important to me. The rest of the day, and the rest of every other day, I lay on the couch and cat nap. Why am I so tired?

 

 

 

On another note, I was at the doctor last Friday. From what he tells me, the deficits that I still try to overcome every day are now my "normal." I'm not going to get anything else back without A LOT of therapy, and even then, I probably won't get much back. Well, I sort of figured that much out on my own. The good ting is that, with the exception of a warning not to drive at night if I didn't have to, I still have my license and I don't have any additional restrictions on it, other than the corrective lenses that I've always had on my license. Yay me!! That would have been a really big blow to me. Being able to drive myself is a big part of my feeling of personal independence. To lose that would hurt A LOT.

 

 

So, with Christmas 4 days away, I am going to force myself to get up and out from behind my desk and finish up my holiday shopping. Tomorrow afternoon, my future daughter-in-law, Sam and I will tackle the Christmas cookies that have yet to be completed. Then, I think I will sleep until Christmas morning.

Great that you still have your driver`s permit. Make sure your ins, company knows about your stroke though. Mine told me if Transport dept gave me a license to drive thats good enough for them(ins. co.) If sleep is what you need, sleep you must get. Listen to your body and have a wonderful Xmas,
