MY back is bugging me again. My new job is kicking my ass. Getting older sucks! I’ve been feeling down about my physical limitations recently, and it’s caused me to become a bit of a short-tempered tool-bag at home. My kids and M are timid when they walk in the room, and they choose their words carefully in case they do or say something to set me off. I have a terrible temper and it doesn’t come out often, but when it does, it’s awful. It’s unfair to my family. I need to check myself. I need to complete my PT and get better. In the meantime, while I embrace the road to recovery, I need to stop being such a short-tempered dick at home. PT works, this group works to encourage me. I chose to lead this morning, because I knew I would force myself and the group to do my PT exercises for the MoM (core work). Thank you men for the encouragement and thanks for having my back! PUN!
Instead of completing more house/yard work today, I’m taking time for my PT with back and quality time with my family. Each kid chose a topping for their ice cream tonight and we are having ice cream sundaes and movie night instead of cleaning our bedrooms. They are pretty pumped.
