The Blog Pause

I feel great!

Well, mostly great. Definitely, the best I’ve felt in a while.

I mentioned in a previous post that a few medical things popped up that needed attention. Most of them would have made it easy to keep my blog updated.

Except for this one little black, blue, and purple thing in the picture. It’s doing its job. I took a break from mine.

But, I have some reviews coming up shortly and some observations on life are bouncing about in my head.

So hold that thought while I wait for the ibuprofen to kick in and I can toss off this pretty and helpful gadget made especially for me by a wonderful Occupational Therapist and I’ll keep mulling over if this is the longest sentence I’ve ever written.

I’m still trying to figure out when my life went from “walk it off” to “get thee to the doctor!” But, I’m glad I did for each and every reason.

I only see my PT for my hip every other week now. I’m going to miss that kid. I’m not going to miss the pain that brought me there, and I’m definitely happy to free up his time for someone that needs it more than I do.

In the past few weeks, I’ve learned to appreciate a good oral surgeon. It does help that he’s young and handsome. It distracted me.

I made myself go to a dermatologist to confirm that a few spots that looked unusual were nothing serious. I wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t gone there.

I don’t believe that being older has to mean that pain is a part of everyday life without consulting a medical professional.

The events (and appointments) of the past month-ish are why I believe we should “get thee to the doctor.”

Figure it out, address it, fix what can be fixed, and move on.
