Well, things turned around yesterday afternoon. I ended up feeling better and was able to go to a practice for a small choir piece for church today. I was hesitant to accept the invitation to sing, knowing how unreliable I am. But when I found out that they would have two people on each part (four-part women's piece), I agreed to do it. At least they wouldn't be completely left in the lurch if my body pooped on me today.
So today I had a non-member friend at church with me, so I was trying fill her in ("They're going to bless the baby.. it means give her a special blessing and officially name her. Stake Relief Society president means etc. etc.") while interpreting for my deaf friend. And today the interpreting was a little different. I sign interpreted most of the meeting, except when my friend gave a talk. Then I voice interpreted while she signed from the podium. That was great but a little stressful, as she signed very quickly. Like I talk quickly when I am nervous. But I made it through. Nobody would know if I missed something anyway.
I interpreted most of church, except for 27 blissful minutes of rest while watching a video that had closed captions. Yeah!
I am so, so tired. Weary. My feet have burned mildly off and on all day, but nothing too bad. My friend retardified a few tired, but not too bad. Honestly, I've had a good day, especially considering how much work I did. My arms were dead after church!
Right now I really want a nap, but I'm going to push on through. Go to bed early if I need to.
So I had a great time at church and am soooo happy for the gabapentin, which makes me functional.
