(no subject)
I went to see a doctor yesterday, who I hadn’t seen in a month and I needed to catch her up on everything that’s happened this March.
And I realized that I have had a whirlwind of a month. I have this tendency to keep plodding along through life (which will serve you well in law school) no matter the stressors that come at me, and I haven’t thought about how much has happened in the past, oh, twenty days.
- New job starts Monday, with all the feelings that go along with that
- My mother goes in for surgery on Monday
- I move after having three weeks of notice to find a place
- I went to appeals court for the car accident case last Thursday and I was totally freaked out about it. The case ended up all but being laughed out of court and the only question I got was “do you have anything to add to… that?” re: the testimony of the uninsured driver who struck me. “That” indeed
- I received amazing writerly news that I cannot share with you yet
- I was tested for low thyroid and yup, it’s low, the constellation of symptoms make a lot of sense now (I should’ve listened sooner when my doc said I should test my thyroid because that can cause depression, but no it was when I asked my dermatologist “yo is my hair thin or what” and she said “I can test your blood right here!” Vanity.)
Despite all this, I spent most of my time feeling like I wasn’t doing anything, and laying it out like that in a monthly view instead of daily journaling really drives home the point that I am terrible at maintaining perspective over how I spend my time.
Now if only I could keep that in mind when I take some downtime and I worry that I’m wasting my life.
Anyway, this is my last post from Miami-Dade! Next stop, Palm Beach County.
