Word of the Week #360:

Frayed

I think I should take a brief break from typing.

Too many of my activities, both vocational and avocational, have been stressing my arms.

My fingers, wrists, and forearms feel chronically tired, nowadays. Every move I make, every click, every keystroke, it is a reminder of my fatigue.

For once, I am experiencing physical burnout before mental or emotional. That, on the one hand, is odd and concerning, but at the same time, maybe I should be proud of how well I’m taking care of my mental health…

For now, I’ll have to look for little pockets of rest whenever I can. I haven’t had a day off in 6 weeks, and that’s just not sustainable, right?

Well, I do hope to get some rest. Let’s see if I actually succeed.
