Chronic Fatigue Syndrome at the End of the Week

Well, it’s the end of my first full week at work since my relapse. I am sitting in my rather small flat, listening to Scissor Sisters, wearing an unflatteringly large woolly jumper (stolen from my dad) and some old trainers. Ok, so not attractive, but comfortable. I got in from work at 5pm feeling tired, but happy. I have survived the week. A few weeks ago I didn’t think I’d ever be able to go back to work or complete a full day. But somehow it has happened and I’m feeling stronger physically and emotionally.

The weekend beckons and I have made a plan. I always have to have something to look forward to, otherwise I end up lazing around doing very little, then all of a sudden it’s Monday morning again. So, tomorrow I’m going to catch the bus to a neighbouring town, do a spot of shopping and then have a cuppa in a nice Fair Trade café. Mmm. Naturally I won’t be spending very much money due to the pittance I earn, but I can buy a Saturday Guardian which is always good value!
