Saturday lawn mowing wasn't so good for my knee. Yesterday afternoon the cork yoga blocks arrived for my exercises, but this morning the iPad battery was drained. I'll try at lunch. Admittedly what we are working on is more to address general knee issues: it's possible i've been more ambitious in various walkings than i should.
Maybe i'll see about hiring my nephew for the 22nd -- if i can get a plan together. I took the day off yesterday. I didn't spend too much time thrashing over best use of time: i just plowed ahead with seeds. Spring seems to be running two weeks in advance, and there are seeds that needed cold stratification. A cover crop seed, lacy phacelia, is supposed to get in the ground on Feb 15th. Hopefully there will be enough winter for those. Given my knee, instead of wandering the woods putting pawpaw seeds, long stored in the fridge, in the ground, i potted them up. I was delighted the seeds looked healthy - not dry, not moldy.
Meeting for business went well, albeit completely off plan. No chance of numbering minutes, or even reading them back. I received quite a compliment from someone (J---) who had also taken the Larabee workshop on clerking, and who has clerked at both monthly and yearly meetings -- he let me know that when he told me i'd done well. So, yay. I haven't looked at my meeting stuff since: need to follow up on a few things.
We had an elephant consult, unplanned, triggered by me blurting. I worry... and i need to make sure i have on my oxygen mask so that i can take care of the Us. I need to find the balance between strength for the Us and the vulnerable for Me. If i'm too strong, she won't see how much i am carrying the elephant care. But if i tip too far, the guilt and pain of having elephants to manage will suck her down. She'll worry about everything and how it's affecting me. And we both need to hold it together to get what needs to be done, done.
Which is work, which is what i shoudl be doing.
