- with a backpack holding my laptop and work things...  

When I make the trip

To go to work, it starts

With me going down

Two flights of stairs

With the help of my

Trekking poles, then

I have to fight to open

The entrance door,

'Cause its hinges are

Tight and hold the

Door well closed.

Once that battle is over,

I walk the icy path to

My car, trying to not

Break my neck on the

Way, unlock the car door,

Sit my touche on the seat

And then slowly hoist

My left leg in, 'cause I

Can't lift it on its own without

Serious pain shooting through.

Once that's done, I drive

To the office, but the parking

Lot is 500 metres away from

The door, so when parked,

I have to mosy myself down

The road as best as I can to

Reach the office, which is

A pretty strenuous activity.

Then the whole day in the office,

I have long distances to cover

To get myself to the bathroom,

To get my break, to get anything,

So a lot of walking is involved.

Then at the end of the day,

There're those 500 metres to

Cover again, the hoisting of 

My left leg into the car, then

Navigating the icy path to

My front entrance's door,

Then the agonizing pulling

Of that stiff-hinged door,

And finally, the going up

The two flights of stairs

With my trekking poles.

After a day like that, my body

Feels completely strained,

The pain is screaming at me,

And I can't even eat or sleep.

So yeah, going to the office

Is quite the escapade requiring

A lot of energy, it's becoming

All too much at this point.

To say I'm exhausted would

Not be any sort of exaggeration.
