Boredom

Okay we all know how boredom can feel - not sure what to do, but when someone suggests something, nothing feels interesting. You go over all of the possibilities, and usually there are 20 different chores that could be done, but you still can't find something you can really get into.
So you read one chapter... maybe lay down to have a nap (only to realize it is only your mind that's so exhausted), and walk around aimlessly, looking for inspiration or something.
Nothing is really on tv - even your favourite show or movie isn't managing to pique your interest.. Except for all of the things you cannot do.

For instance, I am craving going for a run. I mean a good, long, fast, run. Earbuds in, headband covering my ears, shorts and a tank, listening to the most upbeat station I can find.
Or attend a steamy sweaty hot yoga class.
Or go swimming for 3 hours.

My hips will not allow me to run.
Too much heat makes me vomit. (Plus it's not like I have been able to get through an entire yoga class for years anyhow)...
And I did my Cosentyx last night -> the last thing I need is to expose myself to anything I have allergies to, or do anything too exciting, or I'll be having a severe throat swell.
Even going for a short walk seems unattainable at the moment because of how much pain my SI joints are giving me at the moment.
Perhaps I will try a 5 minute treadmill stint and see how that goes.

Everyone experiences boredom... or that feeling of dissatisfaction even though you are keeping busy. Boredom can be even more unrelentingly agitating when your body prevents you from participating in many activities.
I'm sure in an hour or so, I will come up with something.
For now I will sulk on the couch watching a third rate flick while I am doing some laundry.
