I absolutely could Not this week after Wednesday. Wednesday sucked and drained the life out of me. 😐 And I was so panicked about not being able to function that I didn't take the painkiller I needed BUT wasn't able to function ANYWAYS so moot point and in lots of bodywide pain for no reason??? But was so hopeful that I could somehow snap out of it, that I wouldn't do anything that would impede that... and failed. Big time. 🖤 And uh. Some big crushing stuff for me. You know the whole Special Interest Autism stuff and kimono are like, the One Special Interest I've had since childhood that I still obsess over. 🌸 And I missed a presentation that I spent hours planning. That I had prepared for a month ago, a literal month or two ago. god why am i like this. jfc. 😨 logically I know it isn't a big deal but. for me. It was one more Big Thing on top of all of last week of Capital-F Failures. So today and part of yesterday, brace up, lots of electrolytes, rest, and puzzles. Stim puzzles I guess? This must be why I'm obsessed with colour, patterns, textures, shapes. Piecing these scraps is a puzzle to solve while crumb quilting. Relaxing and engaging. 💙 #AutismAwareness #AutismAcceptance #ActuallyAutistic #CrumbQuilting #ScrapQuilting #Setbacks #Disability #ChronicIllness #SpecialInterests #Stimming #Fabric #quilting #piecing #ChronicPain #painkillers #EcoFriendly #ScrapBusting #EcoLiving #sustainability https://www.instagram.com/p/CGJLu2dsJHG/?igshid=15zx8gg93nbdk
