Back to Life..Back to Reality

I feel like a spry school girl on the night before the first day of school. 

Excited...anxious...indecisive about what to wear. Except tomorrow is not the first day of school but my return to work after 5 months and I’m not feeling so spry right now as I’m still quite sore from the last two surgeries.

 But no matter, Wells Fargo Mortgage waits for no wo(man) and being on disability for so long has taken quite the toll on me financially; and while the generous donations over the past several months have helped tremendously it hardly keeps me in the luxurious life I’ve grown accustomed to (that’s a joke for all my fellow non-profit worker bees). This year brings new medical bills and concerns so I think it’s time to get back work even if it’s part time despite the residual physical issues. Time heals all wounds right?

 Besides, I’m tired of being home. I miss the interaction with my work family. Some more than others of course but generally speaking I am looking forward to reconnecting with them and picking up the good work I had to put down in August. And the stress that comes along with that good work? I don’t know I’m trying not to worry about it too much because it will just stress me out even more and that’s not good for anyone.

 So right now I’ll concentrate on the baby steps...gradually getting back to work and gradually getting back to life.
