The difficult thing about the iodine treatment is that it absolutely knocks me out no matter how much sleep I've had. And I can't predict it. It already put me to sleep around 2pm, so I took some at bedtime hoping for the same. Nope. I'm wide awake scrolling Etsy for pastel Christmas fabrics. 😅

I couldn't figure out why they added a can of frosting while also giving a frosting recipe. Apparently because they're cranberries. 🙄
Chronic fatigue wins again. My muffins are going to be dipped in a cranberry sauce.

The iodine treatment is working. Went grocery shopping and I didn't need the cart to lean on, wasn't hunched over. I could support my own body weight. I'm currently making muffins- $5 for 4 is a joke. I had to find the tins cuz it's been ages since I've been well enough to bake something so simple.

Okay, beige back decided. The olive/chartreuse would definitely be more wild on the edge around, but I'm not sure it wouldn't visually crowd everything.
The pink w/ birds keeps it soft... But this isn't a baby quilt, so that's not really my desired goal. Probably going w/ the green.

The batting arrived! I don't know if I'll be quilting today, tho. Yesterday was a lot - traveling always knocks me out. I may putter around or even veg today... Or depending on energy, maybe create the quilt sandwich, at least. I want to design something interesting to quilt into it.

Remove the MCAS; every symptom I've been dealing with is connected to undertreated thyroid. From adrenal insufficiency, aldosterone deficiency, hypomagnesemia, chronic fatigue, ADHD, mini seizures, hypoglycemia, swollen tongue, multiple pituitary issues, loss of shivering -- fucking dystonia!

I want to make one of these cat bed size, all puffy for the cats.
I wish I had a bigger fabric stash. I know it's something you need to grow, but as a beginner I have so many ideas and not enough colors and neutrals. Keep thinking about fabric paint + stamps to fake it.

The shower had water pressure today after months of barely there spray. It feels like a metaphor for my body working. Logically, there are plenty of reasons that should be testable and fixable as to why the shower isn't getting pressure, but nothing ever aligns w/ the theory; it's just random.

Something changed. Maybe it was focusing on treating the MCAS after days of being numb to my body, or that multivitamin was amping me up so much that I couldn't reach proper energy, or these new supplements are actually helping the ME/CFS + working fast. Whatever it is, I was able to clean today.

Managed to wake up grumpier than when I went to sleep, even after a good rest. My gut is burning - it has to be the NACET. Gonna stack my MCAS treatments and hope a little l-glutamine will soothe it.
I don't want to be snapping at everyone tomorrow cuz I can't feel the pain setting me off.

Thinking of trying a reverse applique technique on a quilt while I wait for batting thick enough to protect my cats from the hard, cold floor. Also thinking about organic inspo, seed pods, cells, etc. My mood is horrendous. Looking at gorgeous things + hating everything. Damn brain chemistry. 😕

I stopped a multivitamin of high zinc, copper + iodine today cuz it's driving my OCD flare. It's also the thing fighting off the chronic fatigue.
I can't function w/o overstimulation. Maybe years of PTSD destroying this body set a high level that has to be reached just to move.
I'm going to bed.

Woke up grumpy about two hours ago. Think I'm going back to sleep. My brain is sharp but I'm overwhelmingly tired. It's unusual for chronic fatigue if only because my brain is usually foggy with that. I dunno. Maybe I caught something...
What's another day lost in a sea of days lost to fatigue?

Got this batting because of allergies, thinking it looked fluffier than the cotton batting I was using for potholders. Unrolling revealed they're the same. This was what was available at my local Michaels w/ Joann Fabrics gone. Doubling is still thin. Might have to wait on a higher loft. #quilting

The meds that wake me from the chronic fatigue flare my #OCD. I haven't had to deal with this intensity of neurosis in a long while. I'm avoiding writing, avoiding triggers... I could edit forever.
I first found #mindfulness for PTSD. It helps w/ an overactive brain. A noisy mind is still nothing.

Okay, this is where I've landed. I made it to fit on the top of this chest at the foot of my bed so the cats have more space to cuddle. I guess quilts are like potholders + use bias tape for around the edges. There's another technique that requires a larger back I might look at too.

Stubby season is here in the Pacific Northwest and this chonker is showing some big feelings about being photographed by turning white and burying itself in the sand!
This color change is super hard to photograph, let alone light, but I'm pretty happy with how these turned out.

Took a chance on NACET today. My mood is so much better after days of apathy + void.
Genetically, I need NAC, but it's too harsh + triggers my MCAS. NACET is a much lower dose cuz of how it crosses the BBB but it still can trigger MCAS.
Looking into other options, but I'm relieved this worked.

I pressed the X's after reattaching to the foundation paper piecing template and I think it's going to work. It's obviously not perfect - I don't know why I hold these ridiculously high standards on myself as a beginner, but I guess I'm very good at expecting impossible perfection. 😅
