Medicine
Tue, Jul 20, 2010
Despite my desire to feel better, I am exhausted. Short of breath, unexpectedly dizzy and generally tentative as I still feel a little unsure of my body. Today was my first day back in the office and it took everything out of me and then some. I might have been here at home feeling ever so slightly sorry for myself.
I want to go here with energy and a sparkle. I want to go for runs, swim in the lake and be able to lift whatever or whoever I want, when and how I want.
Luckily I have slightly more commonsense as 37 looms ever closer and I have comedy. Pure, ’round the clock, irresistible slapstick and mayhem. Fin, the Mama Whisperer , is keeping me smiling despite my maudlin tendencies.
Just now she sidled up next to me, turned over on her back with her arms crossed behind her head, looked at me and said, “Mama, Humpty Dumpty couldn’t get it up.”
Damn, if I’m not feeling better already.

That little video is too much! So much sweetness and happy – you and Fin made me day.
I bet you are
So cliche, but…out of the mouth of babes.
*sigh* Poor Mrs. Dumpty.
be gentle on yourself, k?
beautiful! and since i clicked through i got to see your Mighty Life List and it’s perfect. Beautiful and so much of you!
Amanda, I’m praying that you are back to normal soon. I cam back to your blog after having my baby, only to read (through tears) about your accident. Take care of yourself so you can take care of your family.
Oh no! I hope you feel better soon. It is so terrible to not be feeling normal during the summer when there are zillions of fabulous things to do!
Well now…. it seems like Miss Finn is the best of medicine. Oh the pure cuteness of the Mama Whisperer!!!! How full your heart must be.
