I'm down to the bare bones of my soul. It's just me and God. I know you and many others are alive and care about me but here I am in my house otherwise all alone but for God. So I am thankful and will be with Him now.
Good night LDN, hat, iun, thanks for being here in your hearts and spirits.

It really is - I've seen it :)

 

Was great to be messaging from the comfort of my bed last night Lovey... I really hope you got a good sleep.

 

Always here for you. Drop a note any time, night or day, and if I can, I will be there right away!

 

We can be our own emergency spiritual service if you like :)

 

Just dial 1-800-IUN :D

Another hard night of big sad emotions. It's some hormones time of the month stuff though but it's really heavy!! Our world needs healing and in so many ways.

Good night dear ones.

Hi H...

 

Rotten day here - head is on day 11 of being fuzzy and I have had enough.

 

Not looking forward to the winter times starting - I count down the days until the equinox!

Ughh so sorry to hear that.

Winter is hard on me to as I'm sure you remember. We should have an official equinox countdown!
I socialized today going to my church knitting group and it was quite nice. I feel very liked and welcome there. I made myself a nice well cooked meal today too. Had a very deep therapy session today. Tomorrow telemedicine check in with psychiatrist in the AM. I dropped off a dog portrait painting to hang in my friends coffee and wine bar. She is a big supporter. Hopeful it will garner me some more work. She has my business cards too. I'm trying to get some time to do arts and crafts with my niece and nephew and it's like trying to book time with Beyonce. Their schedules are packed. It's so sad for me!
Well I'm having ice cream and going to watch some tele before bed but I'll be up for a little while .nice to hear from you.

Hi H...

 

I will have to forward your work using WhatsApp, will be much easier than trying to get my bluetooth working to send to my laptop, and then email - all too much!!

 

Sounds like you have done really well and kept going. Wherever we can, we need to live by these rules and just keep plodding on. I am still suffering with a lot of fatigue since Sunday, but I have not missed any work so far. It is a very strange thing that is going on. You would expect the fatigue to get worse with doing work, but it doesn't. It makes no difference whether I am working or laying in bed. But laying in bed isn't curing me at all. Just like when I wake up after a good 8 hours sleep, and I still feel shattered. If fact it is worse in the morning than any other time. No idea what I have done. Think I just need to have done with it and cut my head off.

 

How have you been today? Wow, it is a lot quicker to type here than using my phone :)

Yes it would be worse to be deaf. It sounds like high pitched radio feedback. It's almost painful.

Hi Lovey! WOW a hike sounds lovely! Do you have nice scenery where you live? I love the fresh air, though I am very limited in what I can do, due to my chronic fatigue. 

 

I am in the countryside at the moment and like you there still a little bit left on the trees. The clocks change tonight in England, so it get darker an hour earlier! Not fun!! 

 

Generally I am doing ok. Up and down. Just trying to focus on the bigger picture and remain curious at God's Plan for me. Plus be grateful for all the beautiful things in my life! My energy does seem to be slowly improving. 

 

Lots of love and prayers to you my friend! God Bless!

It's about time to pull out the hats and gloves it's true. I still hit the farmer's market and saw my favorite vendors. Knitting group tomorrow a.m. and trauma counseling at noon. Big day! It's around 40 degrees here now. Chilly. Hope all are well. Good night.

LDN there are lots of parks near me to visit. I am blessed to live in a lovely neighborhood too. I fatigue fairly quickly but not as bad as a year or two years ago. It's nice to be able to do more now. I had a small-medium sized home improvement project I did this weekend too. All quite a feat whilst in the throes of trauma therapy and neuro rehab. It's the best way...to continue sprinkling activity and forward moves whenever I am able, along with appropriate levels of extra rest. I am praying and believing in God for a full recovery should that be in alignment with His divine plan. His mercy I seek. Long have I suffered, I am hopeful and petitioning Him ardently for healing.

Very very true. With that approach you will work your way out your problems slowly but surely.
