Its early, 5:30 am. I haven't had to get up for work in 10 months now, but my body still wakes up at o'dark hundred. So I use the time to read as the sun begins to lighten the skies.
Not that I read much that challenges me. Mostly what I call chick lit -- stories with relationships, with a side of murder or mayhem thrown in. Mostly I use them to escape. But sometimes you can glean insights, if you are willing to look close enough.
The pressure I've been feeling is perhaps lifted a little bit. Giving Mom no choice, I dragged her to urgent care yesterday to see if we could get some help. After hearing our "saga", she prescribed steroids, this time with a steady dose for 7 days. I'm hoping this is a solution. For the time being, because I will have more of these episodes as time goes on, I'm sure.
I still have To Do list that's long, but if I stay committed to doing at least one thing each day ..... even if its small progress, its moving forward. Today's task is mom's taxes. Mine are done.
We had a little rain again last night, I love the sound of rain on the roof. With that thought... have a wonderful day!
