Currently, I am an every-other-day person. This means that if I am quietly active one day, the next sees my energy level running on empty.
Knowing this to be true, that’s actually a great improvement over these past three years in which my energy level lingered around empty, every day.
Knowing this to be true, I’ll be sure to rest throughout the day on Thursday of this week in readiness to co-host our family’s Seder with Will on Friday.
Knowing this to be true, I’m glad that Wednesday proves to be the day that we look forward to picking Ravi up from school being that I’ll not let anything interfere with our pleasure while spending time with our grand daughter, midweek.
Knowing this to be true I’ll go easy, today, this being Tuesday, the day before we enjoy Wednesday with Ravi, because following last Sunday’s experience, when she and I had thoroughly enjoyed preparing our hearts, minds and spirits for our Seder, my energy level was plum wore out on Monday, which was yesterday to be exact.
Knowing all of the above to be true, I appreciate my good fortune of enjoying time well-spent with our precious seven year old grand daughter while planning, very carefully, how best to save my energy from running out, over the rest of this week, so as to enjoy co-hosting our Seder with Will (as has not been remotely possible ever since the last time that Ravi had rolled matzoh balls and basted our brisket with savory red wine gravy at Gramma’s house when she’d been four years old).
Hoping (rather than knowing) that physical therapy, beginning at the end of this month, will enhance my lung capacity, thus raising my energy level from low to normal, I’m hopeful that I have planned out the rest of this week, preceding our deeply meaningful, festive Passover Seder (which happens to fall on the Sabbath), so as to maintain a sense of control over my current low level of energy until our guests depart for their homes on Friday night, at which time, the weekend will stretch out before me offering as much time as will be needed to regain mental and physical energy expended while the afterglow of the creation of our Passover Seder feels like the creation of an ode to freedom of religion as believed to be self-evident by law-abiding citizens, throughout the USA.
And just as I am thankful for my on-going return to good health, I am thankful for living life to the fullest extent of my current ability in the home of the brave and the land of the free.
