Progress made - tick!
Okay! We have a new, mostly working fridge! huzzah!
I woke up cheerful and hopeful. Last night I talked some more things out with zond7 and felt weirdly better and was like, I feel guilty for everything and like it is all my fault and people will blame me and be angry but THAT DOESNT MAKE SENSE. And this whole leg/back/sciatica thing seems SO clear cut and the root of many of my other cascading ortho problems. Surely they can at least make some sense of it. The orthopedist wrote me back in a nice way. And I walked around a fair amount this morning in the house without anything bad happening. Then iced my ankles twice. Ordered the proper kind of lawn chair for the back yard. (cheap from kmart!) Got presents online for my nephew and bro in law.
Made new ortho appt. for my back. Booked 2 poetry readings. Posted about the book. Paid bills. Hung up some laundry that was draped over a stack of boxes and in the way.
Now I am going to have a brief outing in the sun, on the scooter, to return library books and get some groceries. I will cook some chicken taco stuff (sitting down).
My back is not good, but not hideous either so I am super super hopeful. Patting myself for doing All the Things this morning!
I feel a little more human and ready to emerge.
