I re-emerged from the trees and moved more slowly

spatch took a bunch of pictures of me when I got back from my walk late this afternoon, which was the fun thing today that required my energy. I like that I look happy in them, although I feel I do look like someone who has been seriously ill for months. I am working on improvement.

( They had joined the landscape. )

I was complaining to rushthatspeaks about the brevity of functional hours I have in my day before I have to fall over and not write about any of the things I want to write about because I spent the afternoon on the phone with the state of Massachusetts and he reminded me that every single one of the things from which I am with any luck recovering is a cause of crushing fatigue, which is important for me to remember, but I still think it's stupid. I have ordered our free COVID-19 tests from the government and my arm can stop hurting any day now.
