HAMSTER • HAM • HAMSTRING
Sometimes life has a funny sense of humour.
Today’s words made me laugh because whenever my salivary glands flare up, I jokingly call it my “hamster disease.”
My cheeks puff out until I look as though I’ve been hiding snacks for the winter!
Thankfully, there’s no actual hamster involved.
Just an unwelcome flare-up that usually means it’s time to slow down and look after myself.
As for ham, that’s definitely off the menu while my glands are sore!
And being hamstrung by a flare-up can be frustrating.
It reminds me that sometimes our bodies decide the pace, whether we agree or not.
So today, I’m choosing laughter over frustration.
A little rest.
A little self-care.
And the hope that my “inner hamster” decides it’s had enough snacks and goes back into hiding soon.
