One half of the month is gone, I am not feeling retired yet

DH asked if I feel retired

I says NO I feel like I am on vacation, working my A$$ off every morning

Like I normally do on vacation

I have not bitten off more than I can chew, doing my outside work early early in the morning

The HEAT of summer has just started to bother me, so I remove myself into the a/c

20 bags of mulch is handled ONE AT A TIME

Prep work outside is just like laying out any inside work, do what you can then stop when you can't

I am taking great satisfaction from sitting and looking at the back yard, knowing that I have put off cleaning up and replanting for the last 3 summers.. just because I couldn't do it and recover

Now I am able to do it, to the extent that I am able, then sit and recover.. maybe for 2 days of recover, but still I have the time to recover

I was thinking .. ha

Going back to the office after 30 days off, just because I may be able bodied enough to tackle it again

Maybe not

sigh

Sleep disorder is still hanging with me, and I did fall into taking the sleeping pills that the neuro RX for me

It extended my night - but I am still up by 4 am or 5:30 am if I take it when I wake up at midnight

Once I was so groggy I felt like I lost valuable hours because I just could not get going - mentally

How much help is that?

Not that I need to get going - but I don't need the groggy not all there feeling either!

I have a primary care doc appt for a physical, because I have had no blood work for years, and I need to know if anything else is going on, I am never really SICK, I have MS
