for your comments on my "tired" post. I posted it to read your comments, of course, and I appreciate your feedback.
Since I got the heart/breathing issues, I've developed a simple system at home: work for a short while/rest for a short while and start over. I call it pacing.
I absolutely don't want to pace my trips to town, my goal is to go only once a week, unless there's something special, like a doctor's appointment.
So I must pace myself while I'm in town. I already do in a couple of places that offer seating: I always sit on one of the benches provided by the post office to rest before I stand in line. And I sit in the chair at the dry cleaners too, while they go and fetch my things. I appreciate those small conveniences.
I also appreciate the drive thru services they have at the Walmart Pharmacy.
It's been raining here, at 4,111 ft. (where my house sits) which is wonderful for critters large and small and for the hundreds of Juniper trees on my land. And everywhere else around here.
The tall grasses look scary dry, don't they? The good rain that's falling right now will keep us safer.

ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a good rhythm for getting done what needs to be done... And rain in dry places is manna! YAM xx
those junipers are beautiful, so is the dry grass, even though it is dangerous. so happy to hear you are getting rain.
ReplyDeleteI do the pace thing and so does bob. even housework is now divided into days, not all in one day. so far I don't have to sit while shopping but bob does. prayers and hugs coming your way
I think we pace throughout our lives, consciously or unconsciously. The pace changes with circumstances.
