So much in my brain! Positive Thoughts Week 5

I can't believe it's been five weeks of this already. I've had moments of motivation to write a big, long update, but can't seem to get my thoughts together yet. Soon!

Good things/positive thoughts for the week of September 1st:

1. Having my dad nearby to hang out with and take walks with when our tennis date gets rained out
2. Having better health insurance so that I can go see my doctor when I'm seriously injured without worrying about a $500 bill coming in the mail two weeks later.
3. My job allowing me to telework while I'm laid up with a bum leg/back/butt
4. Netflix and all the glory that is binge watching Californication
5. Being able to get lots of sleep this last week

I've been regularly getting over 8 hours of sleep a night since this whole muscle inflammation thing started. This is, in part, due to the muscle relaxer I've been having to take - but I'm thankful nonetheless as I've noticed marked improvement in my mood the last 3 or 4 days. Perhaps my next step in this whole "get healthy and take care of my depression" thing is making sure I sleep enough. And I may just be one of those people that needs 8.5 hours vs 7. It's unfortunate that this may put a huge damper on my social life which may mean it'll never regularly be something I can stick with... we'll see.
