Yesterday, I washed the car, and then I was all set to do a decent amount of yard work. I got out the rake, the wheelbarrow, the gardening tote that is a seat as well. Only, I lost my head of steam. I did a little weeding, raked a little, picked up some branches. The wheelbarrow was filled once. My oldest pushed it up to where we dump clippings, and that was it. With the energy I had left I climbed a tree with him and sat and enjoyed the warmth.
I am realizing I still need to go slowly. My energy doesn't last as long as it will once I am over this infection. Most days I am ready for a nap in the afternoon.
The good news is, that I could do more than I was able to do last month. I have to remember, if I take baby steps, I can do a little bit. I can't run a marathon, but I can climb a tree.
