A good idea…

Well…as you know, I have been abusing my hands for the past few weeks as I work on my kitchen and they are covered with cuts and bruises along with the damage to my right thumb that hurts constantly now…but, I took the day off working on the house yesterday and purposely tried to do the littlest amount I could do with my hands…and, other than my guilt from not working, it appears that it was a good idea…the nasty cut on my right index finger that has felt like a supercharged paper cut is starting to heal and it doesn’t hurt much to do this when it was so damn painful Friday that I almost stopped doing these…and the overall stiffness has improved, too, and I can move them much easier today and I hope taking today off will continue to help them improve….I have to remember that I’m not young anymore and I can’t just keep abusing my body like I could when I was younger…and I really don’t have a schedule like I had when I was younger, either…back then I had to juggle work, school, and home maintenance but now I just have this place to work on and I can look forward to taking a couple of weeks off after I finish the kitchen in a few weeks….that doesn’t help with the guilt of taking time off but I’m working on that….
