I admit that it's still early, but I'm blogging now, while I can say that today, I ate to live healthy. I actually wasn't feeling that great and decided to stay home and rest. I did this with the full knowledge that I might spend the whole day eating, without other commitments to occupy the time. I think I've underestimated the physical and emotional drain of the last few weeks. I napped and read on and off all day till about 2 when I went out for a walk. Then about 4, I went out for a few groceries, gassed up the van, came home and COOKED supper.
It was simple, but I chopped veggies, which has been a real challenge. Not only did I get a splint that works well for my hand, I also got the Coles notes tutorial on taping, and some stretches to do to maintain range of motion. I'm thrilled! I might even do the dishes later.
For today, I'm extremely grateful!

Well good for you. Sounds like you needed the day off, and it sounds like you used the day wisely. Personally, nothing gets me thrilled enough to want to do the dishes!
