Lost weekend

[white_hart]

I spent most of yesterday in bed, much of it feeling too exhausted even to sit up and read a book.

Today I managed to get up and put clothes on, and then flopped on the sofa under a blanket and watched The Emperor's New Groove followed by Kiki's Delivery Service and then put the 2020 Emma* on in the background and read Sandman.

I've been doing daily lateral flow tests which keep coming out negative, but even for January this really isn't normal. I suppose it could be actual burnout, though covid still seems more likely...

I feel very much like this (even unto the LFTs which keep surprising me by coming back negative).

I'm sorry you're feeling the same way! It's got to the stage where I honestly want the LFTs to come back positive because at least then I know what it is and that (given I'm double-jabbed and boosted) it'll probably just be a case of resting for a week or so and then gradually starting to feel better...

It very much sounds like you need to do so, whatever the cause. I hope you can keep getting some rest and give yourself time to come round.

(I was sceptical about the 2020 Emma, but ended up thinking that it was very well done.)

There are definitely things I don't like about it (Knightley is ALL WRONG), but on balance I thought it was an enjoyable and definitely very pretty film.
