Journal Entry for May 14, 2008 Mood
Wednesday, May 14, 2008

Life seems a little brighter today. After going through a semi-bad weekend, I am finally beginning to feel alive again. That could be because I am finally trying to whittle down my list of things to do. If I can do at least one thing every day, it will help a lot.

 

My pain level has increased today. The physical therapy I had yesterday could have something to do with it. Although my physical therapist massaged both of my knees, she also did some stretching techniques on my legs. I can put up with it if it will help me in the long run.

 

I have two CNAs to help me each morning. Today I learned that one of them is taking a short vacation at the end of next week. That got me a little bit upset because it seems that when someone leaves and says she will be back, that person always disappears for good. The other CNA told me that in the beginning of June she would be gone for two weeks. That upset me even more. This was like getting a double whammy all at one time.

 

Last night, I wrote to my niece and her husband about the computer problems I have been having. My intention was to try and get them to come over this coming weekend and work on the computer for me. When I got up this morning, the computer was running perfectly. It seems as though every time I contact someone asking for help, whatever I needed help with (such as my computer) suddenly begins to work properly.

    Hmmm..that sure sounds familiar. Every time I book a doctors appointment if I don't feel well, I feel great just before I get there. Go figure! I hope your computer continues to co-operate Jim. After all, this is our lifeline at times.

    I'm so glad you are beginning to feel some lightness, Jim. I think it's much needed and totally deserved! You've taken on a challenge most aren't able to.

    I love that your computer is working properly after you asked for it to get fixed. Maybe we can ask for our hearts to be fixed? I got contacted by my abuser's ex-wife. She provided me with much empathy.
