Journal – Week 38, September 2026
Another mixed week, both health wise, pain wise, sleep wise, and everything else wise... There were some good moments, and a few that were disappointing or hurtful. Some bad dreams have been haunting me, but... Koa also allowed me a few nights with some OK sleep (when my dreams allowed it as well). The weather had its ups and downs again. It's really going from summer to autumn at times, with some warmer, sunny days, but also some windy, more moist, days. Sometimes, the days felt OK, and I managed to do some stuff. Other days, I felt like I was on survival mode, just keeping it going until it was time to go back to bed again. I've felt bad about this at times, especially towards Koa, as he deserves someone with more energy to keep up with him. I want to be that person, and I know I need to become that person again. But, I need my right hand, and my back, to recover more. And then, when my body is ready, my mind needs to "flip the switch", and start working on the more physical part of my recovery: to get my strength and stamina back. I miss the Cynni that used to be able to go on walks with Arwen for several hours at a go. Heck, I don't want to be unkind towards Koa, but I still miss my gall too. Koa and I are working on becoming a better team together every day. He is doing a great job. Now, it's up to me to stay on my exercises for my hand. And, when I can, to start going on longer walks with Koa, and hopefully picking up some cardio exercises at home again. But, that's still, hopefully, part of my (near) future... Which does make it so important for me to have good days (and nights). 🐾🩵💜🩷🐾
