Learning to reframe, resist defeatist all-or-nothing thinking, and celebrate small accomplishments, makes us feel better and avoids the giving up mentality. Good for you Elizabeth, keep spooning!
Best of luck with your surgery this week, and enjoy your small wins.

Yes, Elizabeth, keep spooning!. You set a beautiful example for all of us in how to manage the big"BLOB OF THE DAY..." which is enormous when viewed as a single task.It gives one a defeated feeling almost immediately! The spoons are spoons of reason and good common sense. Much needed.

@rwinney and all...
Thanks, Rachel.
It's taken me many years to get this far...not where I will be tomorrow, but where I am now. I'm thankful for all that Mayo Clinic and the entire professional and caring staff have given me in the last several years. And so very thankful for Mayo Connect, the many special friends ❤💕💖💗 I have now who listen, share, give, love, support and always understand where I am and what I need.
God has blessed me so much. I am a better woman today for these gifts. I will continue to use my spoons wisely, carefully, joyously.
I thank you for you and your support. I will be in good shape coming out of that surgery. Such a small Surgery!
So big to me! Covered with love from many friends.Covered with God's love.
Blessings, my new friend.
Elizabeth
