Today I invited Tom and Mary over to BBQ at lunch. We met them on a support group a couple months back. They are like us, he has CFS like my husand and she has FM like me.
It is interesting getting to know them. I really had not had any real friends since I came to WA 3 years ago and that is one of the things I miss the most.
I love people and having them over and socializing.&nbs...1 Recommendation

To some of you this may not seem incredible, but for some like me it has made me a true believer in my heavenly father, not that I wasn't already. I believe that God presented me with this journey at a time in my life where I felt as though I was in a very deep dark place.

Since the weakness has taken over, I have to appreciate the small joys even more. My husband picked me one of my best smelling roses and I have it here on my desk. It is amazing how that smell can erase your mind of all worries. MMMmmmm, sorry had to smell it again. I did love looking at my beautiful bright orange azalea bush, but the happy new Boxer decided that eating ha...1 Recommendation4 Comments

Before I begin this, I do have an acupuncture appt. today, so my attitude may change later. lol I realized something yesterday while a friend stopped by for a visit. I don't care. I don't care if my needs somehow hurt you. Not that I'm vicious, but I have ALWAYS put the needs of others first thinking that is how a good girl acts.

Notes: Joey Belville is a devout Christian (which I am anything but), and it shows through in his lyrics. Not as heavily in this song as in others, but I'm sure this won't be the last you hear from them.
