Settling Into a Routine
I think I've finally found a routine that works for me.
The biggest problem with fibro and day to day life is that I can't get up and get going in the morning, and then I can't fall asleep at night. When I first wake I am very foggy, stiff and sore. It takes me hours just to be able to move around well, and that's on a good day. I really start hitting my stride around 2 pm.
Interestingly, on the days that I work, I start at 2. Great for work, not so great for home. I've been working all this week, and it actually helped me set up a pattern that seems to be working well for me.
I do my normal stuff in the morning, and try to do the kid's corrections right after lunch. I go to work at 2, and am usually home by 5:15. Then I serve dinner that either dd put in the oven or I left in a crock pot, and after dinner I start preparing the next night's meal. By that hour of the night, I'm at my prime, and enjoy puttering around the kitchen while I'm watching tv. Dh is usually at school or studying, so I'm not disrupting our time together either.
Can't believe I didn't think of this years ago! |
