I Went To See A Friend
[ Monday November 5th 2018 at 8:36 pm ]
The past week has been challenging. I am not getting done what I need. I am having a very challenging time with my pain control. Objectively my life has been feeling like training airplane pilots go through: They get too many errors or failures in a simulator and have to prioritize what they are going to address first, second, third, etc and what they let go of because there are far more urgent issues.
I've decided to have a frank discussion with a friend. I want confirmation that I am spending my time and energy on the right things. It is periodically helpful to have a conversation like this with someone neutral just to make sure it seems like I am pursuing the right use of time.
I am trying to help myself. I've unwillingly found myself with multiple projects on the go at the same time. I don't like when this happens. When I am dependent on help from others I have to focus on the help they are able to bring to my life.
I am going to focus on completing my black out curtains. This will induce better quality life. Better quality life reduces pain and will improve my function in day to day life. I am also going to pursue the knee injections for the same reason. Finally I need to be intentional about my sleeping pattern. This will also help me feel better and make me more efficient in day to day life.
