I survived work yesterday. Still worked about half an hour over my shift, and didn't get everything up to date, and there's probably something major I've forgotten, but it was a reasonable day and I didn't break. And choccies from my manager and another co-worker, and a gorgeous budgie coffee mug from a friend in another department which made my day. And a household called into helpline and asked them to thank me for making sure she got the gift she ordered before Christmas (that was one of the dramas driving me nuts earlier in the week).
So a month off...
And I need to try and not have great expectations, because that way failure lies. Just relax and destress and sleep, and watch plenty of dvds, and start a jigsaw puzzle. Best friend/hubby/kidlets (from Switzerland) for lunch on Tuesday, followed by a massage.

With your health issues I would definitely want to check on your breathing muscles. Serratus Anterior, Serratus Posterior, Scalenes (anterior and posterior), the Quadratus Lumborum and the diaphragm for a start.
Gentle work in these areas can be really helpful to those who experience a lot of stress & anxiety.
Hope you continue to improve! *hugs*
