Personally, I'm amazed that I didn't make an excuse and then believe it. Pain has become a big part of my life; and when I choose to complete a big task --- such as grocery shopping --- pain and fatigue loom very large in my life. Basically, I complete my task and spend the day recovering and "zoning out." A great many necessary tasks remain unfinished. And so I would probably have forgotten about posting my Star-a-Day and made --- and accepted --- an excuse. But I have helpers. Remember that Inner Critic I mentioned? She can also encourage me to "stiffen my spine" and "get it done."
When I made my shopping list, I decided to pick up a bunch of celery, the kind with leaves on the stalks. There is chicken stock in my future; but before I commit chicken stock, I'm using the celery stalks to make today's star.
