Pulling at my bootstraps

Permanent Linkby SamsLand on Tue Nov 15, 2011 8:46 pm

Ok, I know it is "pulling up my bootstraps" but I an not quite there yet. Pulling up would mean I have reached them. So I guess reaching for my bootstraps may have been a better title. But I have never been good at titles. They are often misleading.

When I see a med professional I feel like they are saying the same things over and over. I get it, I see their point, but I can't put it into action. "your bootstraps are down there, you just have to grab them" "its ok to for them to be untied, just tie them again, you know how" "they are white, can't you see them" "they are strong, they will tie again, even though they are frayed, just grab them and tie them" "ok, you've got them, now pull". For me it's like tying my bloody hockey skates when it is 40 below. My hands are numb and it hurts like hell. I guess this is the point where i equate hot chocolate to meds.....

I think they are the ones pulling at my bootstraps. Trying to give me a hand. But I know you have to tie your own boots for them to be tied right. Maybe I am not strong enough to grab them, tie them and make them hold. Or maybe I just need to hang out in bare feet for a while longer.
