Overlooking

It is difficult sometimes when I have to relearn how to do things that I once took for granted being able to do. For example cooking. When I was in Uni I once cooked a full roast dinner for all my house mates without breaking a sweat, now if I try to cook something with more than one pan I panic, if two pans are involved one has to be something I can just keep warm.

So yesterdays tea was an achievement as it involved 3 saucepans being used simultaneously with only one of those pans containing something that could be kept warm, the other 2 pans I had to get the timing right, plus I was cooking something I had never cooked before. When you add double vision  you could say I didn't make it easy. But I managed everything ended up on the plate and was cooked and hot.

So definitely an achievement, it is easy for me to belittle these achievements and say that what do I expect as I once could do this stuff, but I'm not that person any more and never will be, I have to remember that and try not to be so hard on myself and acknowledge these achievements when they happen.
