I had dinner out with a some women I know from a Mom’s meetup group I belong to. It’s always nice to get out of the house especially without children. It was a lot of fun. I ate too much and spent too much, but it was worth it.
This is something that people with chronic illnesses should try to do. Of course at their own pace. But it’s good to be around people who aren’t sick so we don’t focus on our health. It’s nice to just talk about “normal” stuff.
If I’m not feeling too badly I can get my mind off of my aches and pains. I can talk and laugh (even at myself!), and pretend I’m not sick for a short while.
