oh, what a day off. i almost can't believe that i had it. it feels as if i have had practically no rest at all. maybe i haven't. i got some stuff done, stuff i've been wanting to do. that's always a good feeling. and i'm going to work tomorrow, and i have been to the doctor, so there is that.
let's start from the morning. prayer happened but i was so groggy and aching that i don't really think i did much more than mail it in. i laid in bed for a good while, because i was off work. then i went to the kitchen. i made my breakfast after i took my meds and before i did my reading. only read the bible today, from 2 Kings and Ezekiel. i don't know why i skipped the meditation books, but i did. then when i was done i plotted the course for the day. it wasn't complicated.
i am proud to say all my monthy bills are at zero, YAY! except my phone, but that's not really the deal-breaker. i went to lunch with Lonnie, had enough of a meal that it was lunch and dinner today. i went to the grocery store, got some needed supplies. i came home and put groceries away and went to the doctor appointment i'd made this morning.
the gist of the doctor thing is, i've been low-level hurting all over for days and days. head, neck (off and on), shoulders, lower and upper back, thighs, arms, wrists, hands, fingers, feet, ankles and shins. just levels of discomfort. i could sum it up to a bunch of different shit, and they'd all be likely contributing factors. but they're going to screen my urine and blood for things like fibromyalgia and rheumatic arthritis, for lupus and some other things. and i'm okay with that, where probably when i wasn't 50 i would have balked a bit. it's cool though. i am what i am, it is what it is and it's all good. got a prescription for Prednisone i have to pick up tomorrow. going to brunch with Syd tomorrow. ready to get back to the gig, i missed my friends/clients today.
so, doctor, bills, gout flare treatment, lunch with a friend. a good day off? i think so, yeah. and i'm grateful to my Father for allowing me to have it. i'll sleep tonight, by His grace.
