This morning I paid back down for a couple hours (after I got the kids off to school and Brian off to work), only meant to lay down for an hour, I had a bunch of crazy dreams that exacerbated my pain, but also made me feel more stable. So I didn't want to wake up. I felt better in my dream than in real life.
I have a speech therapy appointment at 10:45, it's important that I have that appointment because that inspires me to get out of bed. It inspires me to do something, to eat and make my coffee or do the dishes. Otherwise I feel like i'm failing myself.
If I don't have something to look forward to, I could literally sit on the couch.
But I do have thing that inspire me to move.
My kids need their mom to be an role model.
I need to make a meal.
The cats need food and their litter cleaned out.
The dishes need to be washed or we'll have fruit fly problems.
I need to vacuum because clean things always make you feel better.
I need to make sure I write a check before the bill is due so it's not late.
If I don't take care of myself, I can't take as good care of my kids and my house.. so I make myself shower (yes, this has become a chore. i actually have to sit down in a chair now to shave my legs and clip my toenails because my hip flexors and the hip joint isn't strong enough, and the movement hurts).
What inspires you to do life?
