Monday Monday

Today I was not happy or sad,  I just was.  I managed to get through the day and even got off a bit early which was a really nice way to start the week.  I definitely was not as efficient as I normally am.  Things just seemed to take me longer than normal this morning.  I also got lost on the way to aerate a property I had never been to.  The GPS took me the wrong way and I was pretty frustrated.  I relaxed a little once I realized there was not much I could do about it at the time. The job got done and I know for next time.

I tweaked my back a little on Friday and started feeling some sharp pain on the lower right side on Saturday.  Has not loosened up yet and that was part of the reason I was done a bit early today.  I wanted to get in to see someone and managed to book an appointment tonight.  Our physiotherapy clinic is awesome and I know I will feel much better after they do some adjusting.  Our regular therapist, Anne, has been off for quite some time now with some serious medical issues.  We really miss her as she is such a great person and always takes good care of Jodi and I.  Hope she recovers soon.

I have three positive things to look forward to this week.  Tomorrow night,  we are meeting Dave and Meghan for wings.  We have not seen them since the wedding so it will be awesome to catch up.  I am going to the Landscape Ontario meeting near Cambridge on Wednesday night with my boss.  It should be a good meeting and I always enjoy chatting with my boss outside of work.  This weekend,  I will get to see my niece and nephew and catch up with the Chapman's.  I have not been able to hold Micah for quite some time as I was sick the last two times we have seen them.  Cannot wait to hold her in my arms and see how much she has grown.  Looking forward to hearing how Elias is enjoying school and spending some quality time with Leslie and Bart.  So if I get the downzies in the next few days,  I just have to remind myself of all the wonderful things coming up this week.

Happy Monday.  Take care,  Shawn.
