I heard back from neurology about driving. It was strongly suggested that I not drive until I see a neurologist, due to my intermittent confusion. My appointment with the neurologist isn’t until August 4. I had thought I could ease back into driving by having Kenn in the passenger seat but a friend pointed out that neither of us would have a quick enough response if something did happen. So, no driving until at least August 4. We’ve made it through 3 months of not driving, we can surely get through 6 more weeks.
In other news, my speech therapy is going well. I like the new approach we’re trying out (my speech therapist moved across the country, so I have a new one).
My fast from social media is in its 4th week and I am noticing how often I reach for my phone to check Facebook. I’m having difficulty replacing that time with something else, mostly because the replacement reading seems like it’s too long for the short amount of time I have available. With Facebook I can scroll for as long as I have time, even just a few minutes here and there. I hope that by the end of this fast (July 10), I will have some new, more desirable things to do with my time.
