Mentally Robust, Physically Fragile

Yesterday I awoke with a fever and terrible back pains. I stayed in bed the majority of the day, sleeping most of the time. It was not a good day for productivity. There were several things I wanted to get done, yet I was physically unable. Today started in a similar fashion.

About two hours after being awake, my fever broke and I began to feel a bit better. I showered, got dressed, and headed to my local pharmacy. I grabbed a few items to help with my healing process and now I’m back home. I’m a little worse for wear, but not as bad as yesterday. My fever has subsided and my back pain is all but gone.

I’m at the computer working. Writing my list is work, but I’ve got other things to accomplish as well. So I’ll stay at the computer and work. I may or may not have to rest, but that’s nothing new. The thing about today is mentally I’m strong. I’ve got a bunch of things to get completed and I’m ready to start finishing those things one at a time. It’s a great spot to be in and I’m happy that my physical levels are catching up with my mentality.

Today, Tuesday, September 6, 2022, I am grateful that:

Physically I’m better. It’s been said that if you have your health, you’ve got everything and today I believe that to be true.

I got another work opportunity from D.C. It’s something new and I’m excited about the chance to take on the task.

I had the resources to get the medicine I needed. It sounds trite, but there have been times in my past when I didn’t have the money to buy the things I needed for my health. I’m happy today wasn’t one of those days.

How’s your mental health today?

What practices do you perform to enhance your mental health?
