Not quite back on the horse

span style=”font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;” I /spanover did it. I thought by this week, I’d be bouncing around, writing stories, getting the flow of life back into balance. Instead, I went out to do freelance interviews and food shopping (gosh the grocery store is LOUD) for two days in a row and threw myself out of whack.br /br /Of course, the fact I’d been crying for days prior and had driven around with a sick cat probably didn’t help either.br /br /When you’re feeling mostly okay, it’s hard to remember that it’s only been two weeks since surgery. Especially since there isn’t an obvious reminder, now that the cotton ball is gone, that you were surgicaled. I won’t be cleared for exercise or strenuous activity for almost three more weeks.br /br /Sigh. So in light of ongoing ear aches and tiredness, I’m taking a second day off from it all. I feel horribly guilty about this, as I so want to get back to work. I also feel like such a wimp. After all, I used to go to work at a day job when I had feverish temps, whether I wanted to or not. I’m not saying that was healthy, just that I used to do it.br /br /But the WH reminds me that I need to take it easy. So I’m acquiescing. Saturday I will start again on the write path.
