If I'm being completely honest, what gets under my skin the most is having to drag my life down to such a snail's pace; it feels like someone just went ahead and amputated a part of my identity without asking, and now I'm just left sitting here trying to figure out how to live with this missing piece.
I suppose I'm mostly just my own worst enemy at this point. 🤦
Exactly.
There are moments where I just feel completely useless because of it. 🙂 Honestly, even my cat seems more active than I am right now....
But then I remember that my work kicks into high gear right at the start of summer. God, I can already see it—maybe two or three weeks after the baby arrives, I’ll be out the door every single day. I'll be running laps just to see if I can still sprint, or heading to the local pool to swim just to feel some sort of release. It’s maddening, really, knowing I'm either not allowed or just physically unable to move the way I used to.
