Jumping Eyes. Jump. Jump.

I should have gotten enough sleep last night.. 7.5 hours... But I woke up with my alarm, not on my own, so I guess I wasn't done sleeping.

Although I was not hungry at all, I tried to eat breakfast while driving to church. Unfortunately I was gagging and having difficulty swallowing anything other than liquids. I took drinks to help me swallow the bite of food I had taken then gave up.

I went to church and interpreted for three hours. I did take a break during each meeting, when I would start to struggle. During the last hour I was really struggling--my brain would not cooperate! Then I got dizzy or something. It's hard to describe. It's happened to me before. My eyes can't focus on anything. I try but they jump around. So that makes my feel dizzy or almost carsick. That was how I felt during the last 30 minutes of church, on the drive home, and for an hour or two at home. It got better with rest. Oh, around the time that showed up, I had a stabbing pain in what I think was my stomach and LES. Probably because I hadn't eaten!

My friend drove home, because I couldn't drive after church. I was too dizzy and tired. I came home and laid down for a few hours, just talking to my sister and friend. I got some of my energy back and was able to sit up and talk with them.

Then some people from church came over. It was nice chatting with them, but I had to interpret for my friend, which was draining. Also draining was keeping my energy level up for them. So now I'm exhausted again. My legs are shaky--weak. They feel very small, which doesn't make any sense but is the only way I can think to explain it. My head feels like I have the flu. Heavy. My arms are also heavy. I'm having to go back over this post many times, because I type the wrong word and don't know it unless I try hard to edit my work. Uhhhh... This is why people don't know how sick I am, because I channel all of my energy into interacting with them. However, I can put up a good front temporarily, but I can't maintain it. If they stayed with me longer they would see that I would need to lie down (which I'm doing now).

I don't know how I'm going to work full time. Well, I do. Faith and prayer. Hopefully the doctor tomorrow will be smart.
