I Want Normalcy. Now, with a week and half to go on my sick leave, my life is starting to revolve around, well, my life and not my incision. And I think it's all good!
• Right now, as we speak, the handyman is installing the new ceiling fan in the den.
• Tonight I'm going to see Wishful Thinking with John. My first real outing!
• Tomorrow both Reynaldo and I see doctors. Me: my shrink. Reynaldo: the vet.
• Friday I have lunch with my friend Ed and then a trip to see my State Farm agent to inquire about a new policy.
I'm returning to work on 10/17. I think the most physically taxing part will be the commute -- 90 minutes in, followed by meetings and conferences and assignments ... no nap. So I want to escalate my activities each day. I want to be ready, not exhausted.
Yea!
Though I admit that, right now, I want a nap ...
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
So glad you're healing well!
