Small victories I want to remember Mood
Wednesday, October 7, 2009 | A Positive story

A customer walked into my shop this afternoon and said, "Can I come shop or are you closing"?

That is significant because I had no idea it was 5 o'clock. I thought maybe she thought I closed at 4.  A year ago I stuggled to stay at the store till 5. More recently I get though the day but I am pooped by 4 and counting the minutes till 5.  I didn't know it was 5 because it didn't feel like 5...it actually felt more like 3. I am using a lot of words here for a simple thought...but I think it is wonderful!...sometimes I get to be just like a normal person!

    What an awesome day you had...I have to admit I am just a tiny bit jealous! lol, I am so happy for you, I do get those days but it seems like it has been way to long and I am definatley overdue. It is SO wonderful that you had such an "awake day"!! Thank you for letting me remember that it is not always impossible to feel normal, that other PWN do have good days and not just tired ones :)

    Thanks for this! I am so glad to know others get excited about having a normal day! I've been on Nuvigil for about two months now and for the most part it is working, but the best thing is those "aha!" moments when I realize how "normal" I feel, for the first time in soooooo long!
