Today, after a continuing education course, my husband and I started our errands. First up, we dropped the car off to get some maintenance before leaving our trip. While my husband stayed with the car, I walked to a close by clothing store to look for the outfit I would bring for the wedding. WhileContinue reading “A day out”

Out of routine
I’ve fallen out of the habit of writing daily… sorry, everyone. I’m repenting now, though. A couple of things have gone on and are upcoming up in life that I need to process, so it’s the perfect opportunity to get back into my writing practice. During my last pay period, my supervisor was giving meContinue reading “Out of routine”
High Risk
Was today typical? Today, I was off the waitlist and had my new patient appointment for the high risk breast clinic. So, today was not a typical day.

Insomnia
There was a time when my sleeping patterns were so out of whack that I would go days without proper sleep. Back then, it didn’t matter because I wasn’t working outside the house. These days, if I suffer a bad bout of insomnia I could miss work enough to impact our income and that isContinue reading “Insomnia”
Why one or the other
Are you seeking security or adventure? I seek both. There are times to be adventurous and there’s all the rest of the time when you can ensure your safety and security. Hell, if you’re doing it right… You can do both each day.
Disabled Pride Month Edition
What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life? Adding comfort to my life is done when I take time to move my body. Stagnation is the loss of mobility, independence, and eventually death. So exercise, my PT regimen, and regular wellness visits are crucial to my comfort. To help with movement,Continue reading “Disabled Pride Month Edition”
Disabled, And…
A few years ago, during Disabled Pride Month, I wrote a series on my socials. There was one that I wanted to expand on. Original Post: I am disabled and sometimes I rest. Being disabled is work. And for many, just living life from day to day is all they have energy for. I understandContinue reading “Disabled, And…”
