@unc8689 What a whiner.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

I had to step away from my career ten years ago, and just this morning I found myself struggling with this. Renuka's advice is important. #NEISVoid

To anyone reading this who’s trying hard to endure and persist with an energy-robbing disease: I don’t know who needs to read this and I can’t know your struggle, but I want you to know I know you’re doing your best, you’re doing great all things considered, and I’m proud of you.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@sunsopeningband Thank you!

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@joan8904 I appreciate that the rapture observes daylight saving time.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@ConverseMFA No such thing!

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@theheatherhogan YES. Also the ones that shut themselves off are bullshit.

@graziosa Stati uniti?

@lesliepwriter That’s good because I hadn’t decided what to worry about today.

@Dakota_150 I wear a Whoop, and it tracks HRV during sleep. And fwiw, my Whoop and Visible assessments of recovery do not always agree.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@joan8904 @angelaretail Nope.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@estamj I bet. Step out of our particular professions and people have no idea.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@estamj Well, that's an excruciating thread.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@lsjamison Yes PLEASE teach a zoom class! Though your NYC site visits has this South Carolina country mouse drooling.

[Catherine Paul @CatherineEPaul]

@lsjamison Contagious indeed—thank you!
