I’m sitting here with a bad case of the Blahs. I’m still not strong enough to go out for more than a walk a day, have to be accompanied to do basic grocery shopping and it’s raining out side so I have limited ability to get outside….

I’m tired of reading, I’m tired of watching TV, watching videos/movies, even tired of thinking. Yes, I’m getting healthier, but at a way station of ‘not strong enough to do anything on my own’ and ‘not quite able to actually go do anything’, including go to a movie theatre. UGH!

Yesterday I signed up to go to the bank to make a simple deposit thinking ‘I can do this’. I drove myself less a short distance to the bank (it was raining and I hadn’t taken any pain pills for 7 hours), but by the time I made it home 45 minutes later, you would have thought I ran a marathon. For someone who has always been confident in their ability to power through anything, is was a real slap in the face.

I promptly took a pain pill and curled up on the couch with our junkyard dog and picked up a couple ZZZZZZZZ. Today seems like it will be another ZZZZZZZ-type of day. My gratitude will be focused on a dry place with food in my stomach.

Blessings to you for a good day. I’ll try to invoke this line as I rest again today.
