Bitch: Spending all that time in bed resting made it hard for me to want to do much of anything, especially when I started feeling better…
Brag: …and after I started antibiotics I ordered myself a folding bed desk that I could use for journaling, coloring, drawing, letter writing, etc. when I had the energy to do so. It’s very nice and was reasonably priced.
