And I wonder what I've gotten accomplished after being laid up a month...

Hopefully, before the laid-up period ends completely, you will have armed yourself with a set of goals and promises to yourself, in writing, so that you not only don't get into that burnout again, you reach your real dreams. And I bet I am not the only person around here who wants that for you-- for you to reach your real dreams.

Please, remember that multi-healing is as energy-consuming and worthy of celebration as the time investment multi-anniversarying represents, and set a date with yourself to revisit the anniversary of the injury to check those goals and promises, set fresh goals, etc.

Hot clue-- try to accomplish, "responsibility"-wise, only as much as you could accomplish while one-armed. What a woman could do with one arm tied behind her back-- because that other arm, the healing one, is going to need to wrap itself around the good-for-Linn-and-Tom department, not join the other arm in driving you into the ground.

Been there,
