avoiding

Yesterday I was avoiding you, and by that I mean me. Not today. I weighed in at the Y this morning at 194 lbs. Not the right direction, but I'm getting there by the circuitous route. I am getting there! It was the acknowledgement that when I'm here alone for long periods that I wallow and worry. So, as well as walking, which I've done, I went back to a Pilates class at the Y. It was a little tricky with my hand, but I adapted. Yesterday I cleaned the bathroom, and did some gardening with help from Paula. I figured people with one hand do lots of things, so I'm gonna get doing whatever I can.

I got a referral today to have a proper splint made, and an appointment for tomorrow to get it done. I'm excited!

I really love this horticulture therapy program I'm attending at Ignatius with some students every Monday. Today we pickled beets and carrots and made a beet chocolate cake. You'll be excited to know my pee is pink!

Sometimes I need to take a day off, just to remember how important it is for me to do.

Love, elly
