@MadameLee : Ah, you know the spoon theory! It was originally written up here as a story about a woman with Lupus trying to fully teach her friend what it was like, and it went viral. Now lots of people use the analogy. It's a great story.
I explained how I learned about it in some months ago in a PM. Most of the time I have never-ending spoons-like 'able' people but on days (like I'm dizzy or like today I was really tired) when I was done at the gym and I didn't have the energy or felt it was too dangerous to try to walk home being tired/dizzy so I call dad- in a sense dad is one of my 'spoons' -ok for the last couple of weeks he's technically been two or three of my spoons because of how I been getting in/out of our new pool with his help since we didn't have a ladder yet. But mom was my two spoons 'today' since she had to help me get in/out of the pool and serve up the salad I made for supper.
