So my day took a turn. First, my Hubz has Covid, so I have been trying to do things that he has absolutely no energy to do. Like moving paving stones by toting them in the wheelbarrow. Like a doofas, I take the stones off the part by the handle, thus causing the wheelbarrow with the remaining stones to flip up and land on my arm and wrist. Hoping it is not broke! Then I come in the house and start to unplug the Bluetooth speaker only to drop it on my foot and toe. So, I am down for the count. 🥹

Yikes, be careful! Ice down that wrist and get it checked. Some days are like that, when things start to unravel, boy, they really, as you say, take a turn. Hoping tomorrow is better for you. Rest your arm and wrist and don't be a hero with the yard work, it'll wait for you.

O totally took it easy today. The wrist moves okay, but is still terribly painful to touch or if I bump it. The upper arm is super tender. If it is still paining me on Monday, I will reach out to my doctor. I only watered my yard tonight. No yard work today!

Covid just won't go away! I hate that for you! I think I take for granted what all my husband does around the house until he gets sick...
I hope you didn't break anything!

Thank you. The doctor didn't give my Hubz any medicine. He said there is a Covid medicine, but it can seriously affect the heart, and even more so if a person already has heart issues.

Gonna try to work outside for a little while today, but I have to take it easy with my wrist. Oddly, I can not get in to see my doctor until Wednesday.

Well, today was a wash. Feeling super sick today. Upset tummy and headache. I guess the forced rest was something I needed.

Oh no! It sounds like you also needed to take a break today.

...and I did. Did a bit more shopping and paid bills, but other than that, I took an easy day.

My anxiety makes me good at my job. My incessant checking, and double checking, and analyzing has earned me praise, trust, and early promotions.

But I’m so validated by my performance...sad isn’t it? Hope I’m not alone.

It’s looking like my job is gonna start asking us to return to the office. We have an open office plan and before we wfh FT I would save all my work for my telework days bc I can’t get shit done in the office. I’m having major anxiety about them making this decision. I know I’m not alone that people don’t want to return to the office. My ADHD and the open office just makes working from the office a nightmare and I’m feeling really nervous and kind of resentful.
