Quick update: some idiot used all the Conflux emails to send spam and virii. If you haven't managed to get through to me in the last few days, this may be why. If you need to get through to me, I'll be checking the comments on my LJ posts, my Facebook messages and my university email acount (Gillian.Polack(at)anu(dot)edu(dot)au).

Balancing stressors and demands is surprisingly difficult right now. Little things, like a friend dropping me at the dentist on her way home, make a big difference. Little things, like a friend dropping in followed by a series of phonecalls, leave me a bit wan. A migraine on top of that, leaves me a bit pale for comfort.

I keep forgetting that the old illesses don't go away when something new gets diagnosed. I get old symptoms reminding me not to forget.

When I don't forget (when I'm careful and take life slowly) I'm a lot better than few weeks ago. This weekend is about taking due care. So tomorrow I'm not going to walk to Woden to pick up scripts and see in the Chinese New Year. I'm seeing Rachel and Mia and the rest of the day is slow. I shall watch CSI for its soothing nature* and I shall take a day off, resting. I've postponed my day at a friend's from this Sunday to the Sunday after, so I can maybe do some of today's work then, but if I don't, I don't.

By Monday, I shall be less fractious, I promise**.

One thing I might do is be much stricter with myself about working on Shabbos. From now on, at least till I'm well, if you intend to ring me from dusk Friday until dusk Saturday, we need to not talk about work.

Which reminds me - Purim is coming. I shall make it open house, BYO everything, but only if I'm well enough. Next week is soon enough to decide.




*The original CSI, series 2. For some reason I find it very relaxing. Though it will be more so when the migraine decides it's finished with me.

**Not that I was fractious here. I was fractious on the phone. I was, in fact, very annoyingly fractious on the phone. I would hae been fractious here, only I decided not to post until I had rested, so as not to take it out on people. Then the phone rang. Several times.
