A Perplexing Journey

I blog about; life with my loving husband, & our cats Siggy, and Maddie. Stuff in the news, my crafts, memes, photo posts & various other things that catch my fancy. I really like working at home, my husband appreciates my roll as housewife, and I find it my most rewarding job yet. We still hope to have children, though we still don't have any yet.

Simple Woman's Daybook

FOR TODAY... from Crystal's Daybook

Outside my window... a cool, cloudy day.

I am thinking... I'm too hungry to wait much longer for lunch

I am thankful for... all the help we received on Saturday getting so much yard work done. I'm still paying for it physically (my participation) but I'm so thankful that so much got done.

I am wearing... PJ's, as usual. I'd say, it's my right as a disabled housewife.

I am remembering... how much I'm still craving BLT's and wishing I had cooked it when I wasn't so hungry so I could just have it ready now.

I am going... lay low for a while until this latest fibro flare dies down. That's also why I have some tardiness with some of my NaBloPoMo posts right now.

I am reading... 2 Corinthians

I am hoping... to get the dishwasher running a load of dishes sometime today, so far my legs are disagreeing with me, but I'm not surprised they were up all night (restless leg syndrome)

On my mind... eager to see our first snow day of the season, it might be tonight or tomorrow night, I hope so, I LOVE snow!

From the learning rooms... Still waiting for my god-child's arrival, which is a good thing since the due date is the 2nd, but baby has been showing so many signs of being eager to come on out.

Noticing that... my arm really stings, I burned it cooking soup a few days ago and now the skin has peeled away and is raw, very unpleasant. As I type I feel it more. :-(

Pondering these words... people who are normally healthy rarely can understand the depth of the dysfunction that is chronic illness, and that when you're sick more often then not things pile up not because of a lack of organization, but because of a lack of strength and energy. I'd love to have my old life back, but if I can't, I'd love for people to at least recognize this about me.

From the kitchen... BLT's and tomato soup tonight. On Sunday Kevin made our yummy pumpkin cake and we might have the leftovers of that for desert.

Around the house... is looking a lot better, but still needs help before we have guests for Thanksgiving.

One of my favorite things... Looking out the window and seeing that each day the snow-line on the mountain is a little bit lower and lower.

From my picture journal...
The type of walker that would be a true blessing if I could own.

God bless you. I'm in the same situation you are. I'm so happy to meet you and hope to become good friends. I have had FM my whole life. It has been called many different things. I have about 8 other things wrong with me that goes with FM. I have a blog I put new information on. If you have some tricks you use to make it through I'd like to hear about them. I use meds and a lot of prayer. Typing hurts me a lot. You have a lovely blog. I will come and visit when I have more time to read. God bless, Doylene
