back at work, kinda?

Mar 05, 2012

I'm working from home this week, and today's my first day back.  It's weird - I'm still having a hard time putting myself and my health first.  It's not that I don't value myself/my health ( I do).  It's just that I'm used to taking care of everything else first.

Hm...maybe THAT should be my first goal to tackle?  Putting myself first?

My boss told me to get some rest.  I responded that I didn't want to be a slacker.  WHO DOES THAT?  I'm fighting my boss to get work?  LOL

On another note, I've been thinking about NSVs (non-scale victories).  And I think I may have gotten the biggest one first:  I saved my own life.  Bump getting back into a cute outfit, or getting that man's attention, or anything else - that's the best gift I have given myself taking this step.  And I'm not letting anything/anyone misinterpret that at all.

As far as everything else is concerned - getting the water in is a challenge, getting all my protein in is a challenge, eating stuff I like is a challenge, I have a pretty decent case of thrush making everything taste like aspirin.  But the glass is always full:  I also feel much better, have much less gas, am weaning myself off the pain medicine and I'm moving around pretty darn good.

All in all - Life Is Good.
