Hello Everyone,
I recently heard from a kind blogger friend of mine, the Bluesman and agree with his suggestion. I am posting a short note to let everyone know I am alive and breathing!
I have experienced many emotions and challenges since December 22, 2009. I was able to spend time with my family at Christmas and continue to feel blessed. Jerry and I were able to spend a week and a half with our grandchildren, enriching our lives with young energetic twin girls. I still cannot believe God has blessed us with these beautiful grandchildren.
As usual I have not followed my own advice and paced myself. Between spending quality time with my grandchildren, driving Jerry to his doctor appointments, daily chores, and driving to my Mom's house to visit. One of the hardest lesson for me to learn is pacing. When I feel great and energetic I tend to over do. I am going to post little notes to remind me not to over do.
I have been trying to get back on track and it has been a bit difficult because of the rain and cold weather.
How do I feel? I am slowly gaining back my strength and managing my pain. I am able to check out different sites for a short period of time and want to start posting again. I feel blessed to have such wonderful blogger friends willing to take time out of their day to say hello and ask about my health. I love people and have proof that people do care. These people are absolute proof that our society is filled with loving, caring, beautiful souls.
I hope my post is making sense because my fibro fog has been right in line with my fatigue! However, I am finding my way thru the fog:)
I hope and pray everyone is feeling stronger and experiences no pain or fatigue.
God Bless,
Fibro Viv

Good to see you posting! Pacing and resting is the way to go to give your body a chance to heal. Try and think of it as a way of giving you more time rather than taking time out of your day. You need to keep at it for a while to see the benefits. Four, half hour rests listening to radio drama or a meditation tape (you have to keep your busy mind interested, music won't cut it) spaced through the day will give you half your life back. Good luck!
I'm glad you posted because I, too, was wondering if things were okay. Pace Pace Pace. :)
