Time to kick off another work week but where did the weekend go? That one went by quickly, but I guess they all do. Nevertheless, it’s going to be s partly cloudy day in Big D with a high a 63 - not too bad.
I thought yesterday was going to be a fairly lazy Sunday after church, but that all changed. I was feeling my oats a little bit and decided that I would run a few errands. So, I got dressed and I decided I felt steady and strong enough to use my walker instead of my wheelchair.
I made my way down to my car, loaded my walker and made my first stop - the bank. No problem! I went on to my second stop, the grocery store, to pick up my prescriptions at the drive up/walk up window. The window was closed which meant I had to go in. It’s a bit of a long journey to go in and pick up my meds vs. using the window. But I decided I could do it. I was slow and it took a while but I did it.
When I got back to my car, a nice gentlemen stopped and helped me load my walker - there are good people out there - I got inside, started the car, turned on the A/C - I was done and I was whipped. That little trip inside the store wore me out. But Finally - a victory against my multiple sclerosis; at least I that’s what I called it. When I got home, I unloaded my walker, got up stairs, took off my shoes and took a nap. It was AWESOME!
I know that may not sound like much at all, but a little win like that means everything and gives me hope that I can still improve and will improve doing things in my every day life. Plus, I am stubborn as hell, so there’s that.
Only one meeting today so I hope to get a lot of work done. What do you have planned today?
Anyhoozle, I hope you all have a wonderful day and whatever you do today and every day, do it with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one! And as always:
...wear a mask when appropriate
...be kind and compassionate to one another
...dance/sing/laugh it out. It might not help but it sure as hell couldn't hurt.
Peace, Love and Blessings to you all. -AJ
