On my fourth recovery day from cancer I took the car to the mechanic. Actually, I didn’t take it because I couldn’t drive yet due to the strong medicine, so my father-in-law took me and the car. We walked to Flying M, a nice, unique coffee shop, while we waited.
I did okay with the trip. I got a little extra sore just because of the extra moving. I got tired too. It’s incredible how a simple trip that is normally just a check on the “to-do” list can wear one out. It would be wise to increase my activity a little each day so my first day of school doesn’t wipe me out. Of course, increasing my activity is the last thing I want to do. I’d rather simply rest and get better rather than work to get better. It can be tough to know when to rest and when to work. Here comes another moment when I have to listen to my body, figure out what it needs and then follow through with what is most helpful for my health.
