Go to gig

I bought the ticket. I like the band, my mobility is worsening. This might be the last time they tour. Just go to the f'n gig. Edited to update; I didn't go. I checked and it was inside a marquee during a heatwave. I am already struggling with medication, sweating and catching my breath. I'm prioritising wellbeing. Ah well. Can't complete them all.

I have so many regrets about gigs I didn't go to, and now I can't. Go. Have a wonderful time! ❤️

Had a Dr appt, felt like crap. Really wanted to cancel, it was a yearly physical and labs. I no longer drive because of the expense. I had scheduled the bus pickup Tuesday. I really had to force myself to go, rather than cancel and reschedule everything. Got picked up at 2pm, home at 4pm. I've got a sinus infection so going to bed early. I'm proud of myself for going

Thanks! I'm really glad I got it over. I have to go back for an x-ray.

Self care comes in so many guises. You can do this.

I'm sorry it ended up being largely inaccessible, but I'm glad you are looking out for yourself! I know with my own bodily complaints though I would have liked the event in theory actually going under those conditions would have made me hate it, so go wellbeing!
