Here’s my spoonie thread no one asked for:

I usually have about 15 spoons. I live with a chronic illness that shows up as fatigue, moodiness, and migraines.

But this week I’ve been real sick on top of this. It took about half my spoons away.
Breakfast: 🥄

I don’t have to take care our son in the morning bc my husband is a superhero but that would be 🥄🥄🥄

Showering: 🥄

Doing my hair and makeup: 🥄
Zoom meetings up to an hour: 🥄🥄

Driving anywhere: 🥄

Going into a store: 🥄

Zoom meetings > hour: 🥄🥄🥄

Emails: 🥄/2 emails

Lunch: 🥄

Stole work: 🥄🥄🥄

Campus min prep: 🥄🥄

Sermon prep: 🥄🥄🥄

Recording things for worship: 🥄🥄
Playing with our son in the evening: 🥄🥄

Bedtime routine for kiddo: 🥄

Making dinner: 🥄🥄

Hobbies: 🥄-🥄🥄🥄 depending on what it is
So normally I get to pick activities up to 15🥄

When I have a migraine? 10 🥄 if I’m lucky

When I’m sick like this last week? 8 🥄 on a better day

I was running on a deficit this past week because there was stuff I HAD to do.
I don’t know why I even wrote this out. Except to say that chronic illness sucks. It just sucks.
Hahah my chronic illness MOSTLY shows up in my entire body aching. But that is so common for me now that I FORGOT that it’s not normal 🤣🤣🤣😩😩😩
