Life is funny. I have been doing better the last week or so. I was excited to be able to go to a couple family events. I went to a wedding reception and left feeling good. It was a wonderful time. I enjoyed talking with my family. Then we went to Wal-Mart and there was a couple people that was wearing scents so strong I was effective an isle over. Then as we were leaving someone was smoking in the parking lot. I didn’t think it affected me that bad until I was at a baptism the next day. The reaction kind of rolled in and really surprised me. Sadly we had to leave early and not attend the luncheon with I was looking forward to. My Mom was worried about me driving so she came home with me instead of going. As we drove home we talked about the price I pay for my illness and I realized how pathetic my life sounds. So I decided to tell of the good things in my life.




Spending time with my family. I enjoy the peace and quiet of live back on the farm. My relationship with my mother, she is an incredible lady. Going back to college, I am still trying to finish a class I started independent study last year. I will probable take a class this fall and next spring. My photography. I still love to take pictures and occasionally have been able to get out. Making wash clothes. Helping my nieces make quilts for their college beds. I can’t believe they are that old. Holding my baby niece and nephews. Spending time exploring the world with younger nieces and nephews. Did I mention that I love spending time with my family Hearing about how friends are doing on Facebook. Having the time and place to allow my body to recover from my illness. It is a blessing to have this time. Chinese food. Pink. I made a bed cover and it is nice to have such a cheerful color in my room. Life is good.
