Yesterday, I had a deanery meeting that I had to attend in Crown Point.
This afternoon, we had our parish staff meeting.
Tomorrow, there is a meeting in Merrillville for this year’s diocesan CSA (Catholic Services Appeal). Yeah, tomorrow’s my day off. Looks like I’m giving up my day off and it’s not even Lent. 😮
Needless to say, I am changing my day off this week to Thursday. I’m getting the time I need especially since I’m balancing these meetings with as much rest time as I can snatch as I continue to heal from last week’s molar extraction. It takes a lot out of you when you take things out of you. 🙂 And as you get older, it takes longer to heal.
I’m getting better but my gum is still sore as it heals up after the tooth extraction. Tomorrow is only a week since it took place. I need to keep reminding myself that these things do not get better overnight and that I need to give myself the time I need to heal properly.
I’m 69 going on 70 and still haven’t learned that lesson.
