I can't believe it's been over 2 months.
Biggest thing has been a problem with my hands -- 8 or 9 years ago I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome (numbness and pain in my hands) with moderate nerve damage from bad computer setups. I've been having a BIG flareup since I've been working at the Senior Center. Combination of bad computer setups (get a donated desk, slap a computer on it, call it a work station), stress (tight shoulders & eating too much of the wrong things), bad diet (too much dairy, chocolate etc) and Falstaff pulling on the leash. The food thing bugs me the most, because I know that some of the things I eat are bad for my body, but I eat them because I associate them with calming and relaxation, two things in short supply these days.
Frank and I are both working too much -- he's starting out in real estate, I've got too many commitments. One of mine -- respite care for Michael, twice a week after my Senior Center job -- will end in mid-December. Not a moment too soon for me. I really like Michael, but it's time to have a bit more time for myself.
Let's see if I can post a couple of photos.
