My brain is sweating

There is a lot going on, as always. Mid terms this week, lots of mental exertion! Sometimes makes you feel more tired than physical exhaustion can. I had a couple of extra days off school last week so I filled in at the barn, my replacement quit. Turns out it's hard work. I don't think I fully appreciated how much I ruined my body working there for 2+ years. After 3 days of work the injuries flared up with a vengeance. My feet are going to be a work in progress for years I think. My neck is so sore because of the tension and mis-alignment of my shoulders. My elbow joints have been aching all week. I guess I realized that when we don't take care of ourselves all along, the road to recovery can be a lot longer.
On a good note, a group of us got to help out with a Habitat for Humanity project in Stony Plain. It was a ton of fun. I may quit school and start putting up vapor barrier in the ceilings of closets for a living. It seems I may have missed my calling in life. It was a great group with a really positive vibe all day. The guys running the show were a great bunch and very patient with all of the volunteers. Thanks to Sihing Kichko for organizing the opportunity for everyone.
Have a good week everyone!

  1. Think of your new career as you write your exams, if you don't pass, you have a fall back plan. Good luck this week.
