Relative Something

Wow, speaking of faltering momentum, I totally missed the fact that I hadn’t prepared today’s post! I’ll blame it on the change of clocks back to Standard Time, even though it is probably more a result of needing to readjust myself to my solo routine again. Cyndie packed herself up in a mad dash yesterday afternoon to return to her work in Boston. I was left with a dose of shock that I was on my own again. It really is a different mindset. The things that I manage differently when she is gone are not that significant, but it is just enough to give me the perception that it is a big process. Most of the process is in my head.

I was busy last night trying to plan a couple of days out, as I needed to get ready for Monday morning soccer at the club, then directly to work, from which I will then go directly to meet Cyndie’s dad and we will pick up Elysa and Julian for dinner and a Gopher basketball game. I’ll get home from that in time to go to sleep and then next morning I have an appointment at an allergy clinic to do some testing for a possible cause of my asthma. I don’t know why the question didn’t come up when it was first diagnosed in 2009. It was just presented as a fact, with no questions about what might be the root cause. I was so taken aback by the news that I had asthma, that I didn’t go through what seems to me to be the logical thought process of determining why I had it. Now, almost 3 years later, I am finally getting around to inquiring. I have no idea if this will reveal anything, but I will feel better for having tried.
