Nancy are your eyes pretty much back to normal now? I know that would really make you feel like you are truly on the path to getting a true handle on all this health-stuff, which I know takes time and energy just dealing with the thoughts and plans, much less the actual puny feelings. Happy baby thoughts.
blessed, I would have been awfully worried about you with that hospital visit if you hadn't right away talked about feeling so much better after eating - thank goodness. But I know it worries you not to feel 100 percent. When you make those posts in which you get so much done, item by item, I am inspired. Sweet dd13.
I am not very proud of me lately. I had foolishly hurt my back, with 17 days of muscle relaxants and pain pills needed - the worst I've ever let myself get (or maybe I'm just older than some other, worse injuries, so longer recuperation), and totally avoidable if I had just taken care of myself the way I know to do. But there were other "kicks in the gut", like a hard-drive crash that made me feel foolish, and issues with my parents, pressure of some extended family stuff, sad feelings about dd and her babies so far away. So I am battling back from a "funk" in which my cards are a lifeline... .. but... ... I am recognizing that I am needing a lot of sleep and wasting time dragging while I don't admit I just need to lie down and have a fresh start later. Dh says this will take time to get the drugs out of my system and my body needing to rest up after hard healing work.
You know, summer can be draining as a season and autumn refreshing so that you feel more energy. That is one thing that occurred to me thinking of blessed needing a change. Kathryn also mentioned that going ahead and exercising in the morning helped her to feel focused the rest of the morning. That is something that has been missing for me - feeling focused instead of draggy and fuzzy. So maybe I will try it. I can get back to exercising soon.
