I think I wrote excitedly about getting a job three weeks ago. W-e-l-l, I made it about two weeks, not full ones either. I was a cashier at Sam's Club. I went in the first day and did just fine, but they gave me 8 hour shifts and with each day I got tireder and tireder (is that a word?). Even two days off didn't give me enough time to rest up. My last day was the 4th of July and I was just beat. I asked to be taken off the schedule and dragged myself home.
I have to face the fact, I am still not the strongest person in the world. It's another dose of reality I have to take. I don't like it one bit! Ironically, my stock broker told me that her company has a cadre of temps who fill in when the receptionists are out. I'm going to talk to her next week. That may be the right thing. The work would not be every day and it would not be physically strenuous.
I'm not sure what I'm getting at here, but I read all the posts from people who have been reborn after their OHS and I feel that somehow I haven't done it right. Can some of you who still have some physical limitations write and tell me about them? It's not like I can't use a limb or something, I'm just not very strong and get tired. I'm six months post second surgery. Is this the best I can expect?
To those of you who are doing great, congratulations! I wish you the best.
