I’m awake since I feel a bit sick right now. Nausea has become a fairly common occurrence during my days now, likely from all the salt tablets I’m ingesting…and all the food I’m not ingesting. I really don’t care, either. So, it’s been a bit since I really updated at all because I’ve been…
via Daily Prompt: Doubt “…why did you doubt?” Right now I’m full of doubt. What a cliche beginning. And yet, it is the truth. I can’t predict the future. I don’t know what the Lord has in store for me. He’s started dropping hints again after a week’s silence following what happened just recently,…
Master Yoda was right. “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” Well, give me my red lightsaber now. I’ve feared for the past year since I went on medical leave (on June 10, 2016) that this day would come. That my recovery…
I found this fun-looking and thought-provoking tag over at bluchickenninja (you should totally check out her blog) and decided to tag myself! Anything to distract me from the daily grind of my myriad of chronic illnesses. 1. Which book has been on your shelves the longest? Audition by Michael Shurtleff. It was gifted to me…
Start humming “Auld Lang Syne.” (Seriously, just work with me here.) “Your grace will never be forgot Your mercy all my life Will be my soul’s forever song My story and my light…” It’s easy for me to sit here and bash 2016 for what a horrendous year it was. I’ve already done a…
As the year is (finally!) drawing to a close, I decided to go back and look at some of my old posts to see how life has changed in the past six months since I started this blog. My goal was, and still is, to raise awareness about certain chronic health issues that affect…
If that picture doesn’t sum up how today has gone for me, then nothing will. But first we need to back track to yesterday.
Yes, the above photo is real. I took it about two years ago while filling out the questionnaire for our respirator fit tests at work. I thought of it again today when I came across some questions that, while not necessarily odd, certainly made me pause and either shake my head or laugh. And…
(Ok, I just want to say that I titled this post and wrote the whole thing before I found that picture! Has anything so perfect ever occurred in this world? I can’t stop laughing!)? But! Today a monumental thing occurred. I left the house!? I know, I know, don’t be jealous. But I only left the…
I have a confession to make. I am afraid of the hospital. Not “hospitals” in general, but one specific hospital. This is even more of a conundrum because it’s the same hospital where I work. Fabulous. This is something I’ve been keeping secret for awhile, because I’m honestly ashamed of it, although it hasn’t…
