Work has been especially challenging recently, and I grumpily wrote this week off entirely because of it. If I look past work, though, some pretty great things actually happened.

I set my new post-surgery cycling record (6.5 miles) AND my walking record pace (14.4 minute mile average/14.2 fastest split) this week. I also drove the longest distance since surgery. Driving was the first thing I lost the ability to do, and it was difficult and scary to do again.

Ben and I had some time together and got important house stuff done. There was no shortage of shitty things that happened, but I don’t want to lose these wins because of them. And hopefully I can make sure my future work weeks are not quite so unbearable.
