I
really did absolutely nothing today and I don't feel too guilty
either. I suppose I could mitigate my guilt A little by saying that I
didn't want to aggravate my tender butt and driving around tends to
do that sometimes. I'm sure I just need a good but wash (which I
should get tomorrow because it's home health day for me – – home
health Monday). Truthfully however I didn't have anywhere to go, I
suppose I could have saddled up and gone up to the movies that just
seems like a waste of money and something I really don't like to do
on a Sunday unless a really good movie might be playing. But I was
happy to hang around the apartment and pretend like I was doing
something positive. The High Point of the day so far was a call for
my daughter was on her way to pick up the girls who'd been visiting
with her dad over the weekend. Shelley and I have started these daddy
daughter talk a-thons when she drives from one of her jobs are when
she picks up the kids or when she will be driving a long time and
need someone to talk to during the drive. We have great discussions
covering all kinds of issues, some family related, some kid related
some historically related but it's always a good conversation that we
have and that I'm glad to stop whatever I'm doing when she calls. I
would imagine the calls average about an hour in length. We
continually talk there are no pauses pregnant or otherwise however,
sometimes there is yawning going on She was sleeping poorly the other
night. Anyway an interesting thought that I brought up during the
conversation was how I was feeling a little guilty for not doing more
with my day – – sort of like what I started this blog with.
I
told Michelle that I was getting more and more comfortable with just
hanging out inside my apartment. Amazingly, thinking of all the
technological tie-ins that I enjoy. Whether I'm texting Dianne or a
friend I have in the Netherlands or my buddy in Mexico. I text these
folks for only often and when I'm done especially if it's a video
text I feel asked to spend time with them (yes, I know I did spend
time with and but like I actually visited with them which I did, 09
getting all confused but you know what I mean) I guess what I'm
writing is that I don't feel cooped up, isolated cut off from the
world. I have my text, Netflix and Amazon subscriptions and my
writing, which is basically blogging but still it's writing and I do
it every day, I work out I cook and I have my weekly monthly meetings
and go out to eat regularly with friends. I think I'm doing okay,
it's not like I'm doing trips to Europe, Hawaii, the outback are
going on campouts but I relatively happy doing what I'm doing. I'm
especially excited and feeling involved with the new occupational
therapy regimen I'm doing with Nikki. I'm improving I'm not doing the
art classes which I probably should be doing for all the reasons I've
outlined before. I'm trying to be more proactive and protective of my
ass, literally. I think of my friends who are all in severe medical
situations from things like pressure sores and worse and thinking I'm
doing okay. People love me people help me when I need help and people
respond to my Facebook postings I guess I'm doing all right…
