Mom is here. What a blessing. She has cleaned by refrigerator, all my cupboards, cooked for Lee and I, done laundry and ironing. And the big blessing--she got things together to get me to the hairdresser and get me a new, very short, haircut. Now, my gray isn't so noticable because I have a little fluff. I feel like a new woman.
At work I had to be reassigned to a less stressful job. Turns out to be one I really want. It allows me to be creative without any physical exertion.
I was really sick on the weekend, but today is Tuesday and both yesterday and today I have felt really well.
Since I can't drive, Lee has to take me everywhere. On Monday, he had to work late. I was feeling good so I told him not to worry about me (he was going to leave work, take me home and then go back to work). I have a bus pass furnished by my office since we carpool. I rode the bus home. It only took 1/2 hour. Not bad. Then I had to walk from 15th Ave to 21st Ave. I was beat, but I did it.
Lee and I have made a pact--if I don't feel like doing something, I tell him and he does it for me. If I do feel like doing something, he lets me. That is a hard thing for both of us. I don't want to give up my independence any more than I already have, and he wants to dote over me. |
