My Life Thus Far
There's Always Room for Improvement
Snookums made me make an appointment to see the doctor about my hip. I feel like this flare up has something to do with my period. I have low back pain right before, and sometimes that low back pain aggravates my sciatica. But by the time it finally resolves (the week after my period), I really only get a solid week of being pain free. Otherwise, I'm always in some state of low back/sciatic/hip pain. That isn't normal, right? Do I have to live with it? I keep minimizing the significance of it, but really I shouldn't force myself to suffer through it and hope it resolves eventually.
I don't feel like talking about work. It was nothing special. The usual. But of course, encompassed the largest portion of my day. I hate that.
Before I left this morning, I put blackeyed peas in the crock pot Snookums gave me yesterday for Mother's Day. Let me tell you, it's a great feeling walking into the house and smelling dinner already made. I'm definitely going to be utilizing this new crock pot to the fullest. It's one of the fancy digital ones that lets me tailor the cooking time exactly how I need to. Way fancier than the old school low high warm dial. Funny how something as simplistic as a slow-cooker can be improved upon. Yet another reminder that there's always room for improvement.
I'm kind of at a loss for words tonight... not sure what I want to write about. I consider this a good thing. Usually if I have a lot to say, it's because life isn't exactly going as I'd like. Everyone has a need to complain on some level. You can call it what you want, but that's what it is. I'm trying to use this new and improved diary for the opposite. Yes, I share the bad, but I also want to celebrate the good as well. There is plenty of good to temper the bad. The yin and yang of life.
