I arrived at the church today and announced, "I'm back!" I had come up with some ideas for fall worship this morning, and was feeling great. I sat down and began writing newsletter articles and working on liturgy for worship.
Four hours later I had to admit that I wasn't back completely. My neck and shoulders were hurting. I shut down the computer, done for the day. This evening I have my regular overnight retreat with my colleagues. It will be our last one until fall. Sister Best Friend is picking me up for it. I'm thinking Thursday I will begin driving again.
It did feel good to get back into the routine, but I didn't like being forced to face my limitations. I'm glad I'm not going to be preaching this Sunday....
