Let me say... this week was head and shoulders above last week.
It helps that, being a food lover, I really enjoy Thanksgiving. Juno made us a lovely, moist and delicious turkey with her signature stuffing, fresh homemade rolls (which were so good we're trying to figure out how to make them regularly), a nice salad, terrific gravy... and that on top of the pies (one pecan and one pumpkin) and various other delicious baked good she made the night before. It was fantastic.
Yes, I am thankful for my wonderful wife.
Of course, living a thousand miles from my nearest relatives is not having to have the storied uncomfortable Thanksgiving dinner with said relatives. That's a good and bad thing, I guess.
The rest of the week was good too. I'm trying to find ways to sleep better and working on managing my expectations of myself more reasonably. I need to remember my own lessons from the early days of my illness - rest when tired, eat when hungry and, above all, take the wins and don't get hung up on the rest.
I dare say, it's good advice in general. :)
Onward
