Spoon theory is a metaphor describing the amount of physical or mental energy that a person has available for daily activities and tasks, and how it can become limited. The term was coined in a 2003 essay by American writer Christine Miserandino. In the essay, Miserandino describes her experience with chronic illness, using a handful of spoons as a metaphor for units of energy available to perform everyday actions.

I choose...to be the best me I can be, to be the strongest me I can be, to learn the most I can. I don't know what comes next. But I'm gonna go into it balls to the walls, flames in my hair, and full speed ahead.

The best I can come up with is my wardrobe, it makes me feel better to look how I want to. I'm headed out right now to get grubby working on the truck, and and I'm dressed cute, because I can, and there's SO MUCH I can't do anything about, that I do what I can. And today that means matching camo pants with an animal print shirt.
I was thinking this morning about how some people crave comfort food, I crave comfort clothes, not always physical comfort (although that's part of it) but psychological comfort. It helps me remember who I really am, underneath the chaos, pain and exhaustion.
