I Got Some Things Done Didn't I?

A few things of significance happened today. First and foremost, Johnnie had a new dance class first thing in the morning. And I posted a video of him doing his thing too. I don't think I have to worry about him having too much energy or too little exercise for this morning. Then again, he is a walking bundle of energy isn't he? As for me I was still feeling some soreness from Monday, maybe because I did manage to follow it up with the usual 11,300 steps yesterday. Any way sometime after lunch after I did a round of steps while Johnnie was on the computer, I felt soreness in my back after taking a pee. And the soreness stuck around and I was pretty sure it didn't have anything to do with the steps. Uh-oh. Could it be? Am I experiencing a kidney stone again? And AFTER I DID A ROUND OF those rife frequencies to prevent them? Or maybe it was BECAUSE I did those rife frequencies. Must have loosened something up. And not just the stones either. Maybe it's some emotional stuff that was buried. In any case I was in an afternoon meeting sitting down in front of my computer when it flared its worst. And that's when I started punching my left kidney. Not hard mind you but hard enough for me to feel it. And wouldn't you know, the pain went away. As in I must have passed the stone later on because I was back to normal! Well this is a pretty big deal! That I could heal myself like that. Again, all this must have something to do with all the internal work I got to do yesterday. That wasn't all that happened that might have direct connection to yesterday's activity either. 

I kept up with the 'I provide massive value' mantra and my image cycling the last 3 days and wouldn't you know I'd be provided with another opportunity to step up and provide value. This time, it was about providing enrollment data for our patients 65 and older. That's because we now need to order vaccines for patients and that is the next required tier. Management needed to know how much to order. They texted and sent me chats WHILE I was in line (more than likely) getting Johnnie and I dinner from Panda Express Westwood. It was important enough for Eloisa to call me on my cell. Of course I jumped at it and got them their numbers. It took an hour to dig it up. It was already available anyway. Mission accomplished, value provided. 

But the MOST important takeaway from today was one of those interactions that could have easily been shrugged off. Fortunately for me I did not do that. I was on the phone on a rare 1 PM Wednesday meeting with the Compliance Committee and Johnnie went in there to interrupt. That by itself was not unusual. But this time, he wanted to let me know his little ducky that he made an effort to make available for his class was not needed today. It was like he was telling me he felt like he was taken for granted. Not the ducky. Johnnie. And so what did I do? I whisked him out of the room abruptly and told him to go back to the other room. OF COURSE Johnnie would feel sad about that! Fortunately he made his feelings known to me. Not directly, but by a note to me supposedly from Ducky. "Dad you made him sad" was what it said. Boy did THAT get me! Aren't I so lucky my little boy can at least provide me with reminders already at age 6, even if it WAS through an external object. Fortunately I was given time to recover. This is the kind of thing that kids remember. Don't I know that... remember my Easter note to my mom? Probably happened right around the time I was Johnnie's age! And so I recognized quickly and made amends right then and there, both to Johnnie and Ducky and apologized profusely for being rude and being inattentive. And the rest of the day played out like usual.
