Wonder Woman

"I Am Able" have always been my words. I have always been the one who can, and who does. I've looked after ill husbands, sick children, and pets, too. When something needed to be done, I was the Go To person. And today, I was not that person, couldn't be that person. And it was disheartening for me to admit to myself that I couldn't. Getting up and walking the floor tired me out after 20 minutes and I was back in bed. Even the thing that I thought wouldn't bother me ... chatting on the computer ... tired me out after an hour.

After a tiring day of doing nothing, at 7:30pm I decided I needed to get up and roam around. I ran some hot water into the sink and splashed in some of my pomegranate shower gel. Its totally amazing how good one can feel after that simple thing!! Not sure I can get my hair washed by myself, though.

I guess when it comes down to it, no matter how much we want to be Wonder Woman, or who expects us to be, when the chips are down, that card gets taken from us. And learning to accept that is a hard thing. Especially for me.

HUGS to everyone!
