I have been asked by some of my subscribers how often I am posting. Unfortunately I have not yet developed a routine with my posting.
…in fact I have no routine at all.
It’s very difficult with chronic fatigue to know how I am going to be from day to day, I found this incredibly frustrating when I was still working, as did my employer (hence why I no longer work). There seems to be no pattern, no trigger, no way of knowing from day to day how I will wake up.
Getting a good night sleep means nothing, I have come off a few hours and had a great day, and come off a solid nights sleep having a terrible day.
So how do I plan anything?
The truth is I don’t. I often make plans with the thought in the back of my head that I may or may not be able to follow through. In the past when I was invited to things I would never commit, saying I want to go but may not be able to. My friends got used to it, but I am not sure I ever really did. My health is alot better than that now and I can commit to social engagements without too much fear of having to back out, but making plans for my week, getting things done is alot harder.
Today I had two things I had to do, get my newsletter out for my website, and contact an insurance agency. Both fairly simple tasks, yet it has taken me all day to do it, on a good day I could have knocked both jobs over quickly, on a bad day neither of these things happen.
So I have decided today that enough is enough, I need to develop some sort of routine despite my restrictions. I thought I would start with an online routine, and hopefully I can stick to it, my readers will be a strong motivation to stick to it even in poor health.
So regardless of my health status I will be blogging from now on 3 days a week. On monday, wednesday and friday. To keep this up, some of my posts may be short and unedited (in other words, no rechecking, so expect some grammatical and spelling errors at times), but I think my readers will appreciate the honesty that will come out of this committment.
