Finally awake!

It's bedtime, but I finally feel awake. I did take a nap today, but not a very long one. I just took a shower and that always makes a person feel better. I pretty much felt tired all day, (until bedtime). In the morning I was hit with depression. It sort of has been building up the last few days. It has to do with talks I've had with my eldest daughter. It is hard for her to be home in some ways. She is 23 and has seen a lot of changes in our family over the last 5 years. We all lived in Mexico... Sign in to see full entry.

Depression

I don't think I can keep writing about my life. I am tired of focusing on "me". I am doing a priority check these days and that's why I haven't been writing a lot lately. It is still very "summer" here, but I think about the cold to come. I know God has a plan for my life here and I need to be at peace with what I am doing now. I want to be more focused on my children. Verbal communication has never been easy for me and is a problem at times. Time. Rest. Work. Energy. Motivation. It all has to... Sign in to see full entry.

Tinnitis

Tinnitus is an annoying ringing in one's ears that can drive you crazy! I've had it for about 4 years now. It happened one day when someone popped a balloon in the room I was in. They were not real close, but it was loud. Instantly my left ear began to ring quite loud. I also noticed after a few days that some sounds had changed in that ear. Piano music sounded "tinny". Then about a month later I found out that I could not hear quiet soft sounds of a certain pitch from that ear. I went to 2 ear... Sign in to see full entry.

Naps

Naps are becoming a habit. At this point I don't function well without them. I don't take naps unless I really need them, and I've had to take one almost every day recently. Naps shorten the day. I will be leaving to do errands again. Then we need to make zuchinni bread and bake the other pie. I got to the Pot Luck last night 1 hour late last night. In Mexico, that would be about on time, but here it was really late. Most of the food was gone, except dessert. But I did have some chicken. Greg... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I plan on writing about past and present life experiences and what I have learned from them. I also want to tell stories of things in my past, some humourus, some serious and some trivial. I have done some traveling and want to describe those places and people accurately, maybe in some cases changing names if I see it could embarrass someone. I will write out of my heart and hopefully give hope to some of my readers. I do not have all the answers, but have lived long enough to know there are many trials in life and obstacles. I want to examine life, it's simplicities and complexities and share my observation and at times opinions with others.
