Better over better.

.

I can usually walk without more than a slight limp and mild pain.  My torso has started hurting, mildly.  Not organs, just general pains, like after doing windsprints after a summer off.  The headache which developed over a few days, a new and different symptom, seems to have passed.

I did a few minor tasks for mother today.  Waking early, but going on back to bed early.  Then getting up for supper.  Doing a few more jobs.  Plus, keeping up on water and ice, rotating and checking kefir, and making plans for a bit of work each day going forward.

Some tasks on her list, some on mine.  Well, and making those lists.  No promises.  Just lists, and some resolve to do some random things on the various lists each day.  As well, I finally started taking all of my medicines, yesterday... and going forward.

I had some mild, watery, kefir tonight.  It's been a while.  Between it being so thin, fresh, and new to me, it cleared me out.  All good.  I'll have a bit more before bed.

Gaming, too.  It is helping bring my mind back, stretch memory, and such.  Until I am fully back on my feet, figuratively and literally, gaming helps.  I am all but sure I fractured my feet.  The length of healing, severity of limitations and pain, localized swelling, and else make me all but sure.  I think I am within a week or two of having my feet back.  Give or take a week or two.  Nothing so painful as walking on your suffering.

Still?  Life is good.  Embrace the pain you must endure and carry on.  Smile when you can, curse a bit when driven beyond some limit.  Carry on.  I just got hit with three major sufferings at once.  But I am nearly through.  Smiling more than not, if more on the inside.

Yes?  Yes.  And grateful to God for the opportunity to endure.  He built me to take solid hardships.  And, so I have.  Good night.
