It’s been a one full week since the most recent attempt to correct the back issues. One full week since I was told to DO nothing. I’d like to say my attitude has been stellar…
But I’d be lying.
As an alpha female, find my own answers, get it done type of girl, the DO nothing order is about the hardest thing to accept. I’m all about the cause and effect, make the effort, no pain-no gain sort of mentality. In short, I’m the alpha female who prefers to control her destiny.
With an ‘invisible’ injury like this back thing (no swelling, cast, etc.) I’ve learned control is a precious commodity I’m fresh out of.
I suppose I could say I’d developed a talent for doing nothing or tapped a previously unknown preference for the ‘lady of leisure’ lifestyle.
But I’d be lying.
The truth is I was the kid who was sure to run off and try it if you told me it was impossible. (maybe that’s why I chose a career in writing and publishing) and not much as changed now that I’m not a kid anymore. I want to fix it, or have it fixed, so I can get on with my life.
So maybe the team is right, I’m not over my alpha female tendencies, not even close to knowing how to relinquish control. But hey, I am behaving and resting and writing like crazy…so I can live vicariously through my alpha female characters.
Live the adventure!
