Much More Than This
I made up a personal goal for myself to better maintain my home. What makes it difficult is the increasing pain in my back and knees. I’m not doing the best with getting adequate sleep either, so it’s throwing off my medicine schedule. The medicine schedule being off throws off the energy and motivation I… Continue reading

It’s An Every/Other Day Thing
I am very shy and uncomfortable around others–in person. Because I have hearing problems, I miss a large chunk of what people are saying in front of me if they turn away. … or if I’m over two feet away. Sometimes, I have problems understanding on the phone too. Now that I have worsening memory… Continue reading

Do We Have The Time?
I could AGAIN… pay more attention to food prep. I really enjoy doing it, even though it’s exhausting. Convince myself that I’m not selfish for wanting time away from my family for my own sanity. – Sometimes leaving your family behind is the best decision you can make. Get used to my own voice and… Continue reading

It’s Not Much Really
I used to have “youthful” energy. I’m still young though… but that energy is long gone. Now, the main source of energy I receive is from the black tea I drink… Which has to be ingested apart from my medication. I found out that ingesting that and my antidepressant could lead to a seizure. …… Continue reading

If Only…
Therapy today was nice. We tried this kinesthetic tape to help support my thumb after paraffin treatment and cupping. I’m extremely sensitive to temperatures, so the therapist had to cool down the wax to help me. What struck me was how difficult it was for me to use the pedal exerciser today. I try to… Continue reading

It’s A Daily Struggle, But A Good One
Running I can’t do well at all, however, it’s required for me to walk every day. I have a two level home with a basement, so different things, different levels. Having to live and not wanting to stink makes me move. ~J. Lyst This is why I would refuse to live in a one level… Continue reading
