Being Thankful
Today was a good and THANKFULL day! After 2-3 hours of sleep I did my workout and was dressed and ready to leave at 9 am...not my normal routine but today was pre-op day. We traveled to Legacy Salmon Creek and spent about 2 hours there. When we were done there, we...
Doing the Work Anyway
Today has been a wonderful day. It started sad but eventually turned to glad. I had a very stressful dream that left me very sad. I couldn’t shake it. My brain wanted to dissociate, which is a normal trauma response for me, so it was hard to make different choices but...
Being Human
Today was a big day with lots of emotions. I couldn’t sleep last night so on less than 4 hrs of sleep I did my workout and found myself at PeaceHealth Imaging for the first CT scan of my life. It went well and quickly. When we were pulling out of the parking garage,...
Food for Thought
I am proving myself consistent at having trouble with my limits. With everything I did yesterday, I have been sluggish all day. I would love a nap but I am afraid I will have trouble sleeping tonight...Karen won’t be home for 2 hours. Today I made a huge crockpot of...
Carrying it Well
Today I am tired! I slept for 12 hours straight last night and slept in so much that I had to eat to take meds before my workout. I have GERD so that is not fun but I made it through! Thank You Jesus! Each exercise was hard. My body is tired; really tired. I had to do...
There is Always Tomorrow…
Today was good but it won. I did get my workout in and a very small walk in. I hurt today and even though I am tired I am not sleeping and if I do sleep, I have stressful dreams. Talking on the phone is hard for me. Phones have been used as weapons against me in the...
Another Good Day!
Today was a good day! I woke up in a lot of pain, understandably, with the amount of walking I did yesterday but once I forced myself to do my workout my body was willing to comply...Thank You Jesus! I walked more yesterday than I have in a long time and my body...
Getting Some Answers
Today was a success! Even though the clutch went out (we will find out if the parts that are acting up are still covered by the warranty on Wednesday) we were able to get a rental...thanks to our good friend, Jhohanna, and not miss my first visit with the oncologist....
No More Flying Monkeys…Unless We are Watching The Wizard of Oz
I have been in therapy many times throughout my life. I have been diligent for the last 6 years. I am healing from a lifetime of being a scapegoat. I have had people from my past on restriction for about 5 years and now know I must give up the idea of reconciliation....
The Side Effects of Illness is Extra Expenses…
Today was a good day. I have very little energy but I was able to stay awake more today than yesterday. Maybe my body will adjust to the new meds and it wont be so bad...especially as I get used to the side effects. I already take a lot of meds but I have to say the...
