Today has been a better day than yesterday. That’s not saying a lot, but I did make it to church yesterday. I get discouraged when I’m impatient. Then I remember how long it took me to recover twenty-two years ago. I’m trying to be more patient.
When I went to bed last night, I made a list in my head of everything I wanted to do today. I got two things done, which was good. I did not get the clothes folded, and if you know me, you know I hate folding clothes. Maybe I can get them done tomorrow.
My strength is improving. I walked to the mailbox today for the first time in a long while. It felt good to be outside and hear the sounds around me.
Tomorrow, I would like to tackle the last two chapters of my book. That is, after I fold the clothes. I find I can do a little each day. I want to get this book finished and start something else. It helps to look to the future. I’m more optimistic when I can do that.
Recovery is going to take a while. I don’t expect to be a lot stronger until the new year, but I’m still kicking and trying to do a little each day. The best thing is that my eyesight has improved, and for that I am thankful.
Next week, I hope to tell you I’m doing the final edit of my book. That is my goal.
Have a blessed day.
