Checking In Mood
Wednesday, April 29, 2009

I checked in.  It's been awhile. 

 

I kind of limited my internet usage over the lent season.

 

Me & the kiddo have been busy.  She's going to be out of preschool in a few weeks.

She had her fifth birthday earlier this month.  Fun

 

I'm doing well managing the pain and surviving.  I'm looking forward to the summer.

 

Peace

    Happy birthday to your little girl!
    Thank you for the kind wishes on my journal about the adoption. We are praying that God blesses us with a little girl (aged 6-12). I am feeling a lot of fear about it lately. Am I well enough and healthy enough to take something like this on? Can I ask you an honest question? I know you also have Chronic Myofascial Syndrome, and you also have a little girl. How do you do it? Do you find that you are physically able to keep up with her and all the demands of parenting a child? I really want to do this, but some days I wonder if I can. I'd really like to hear an (honest) answer from someone in a similar physical situation to me who is parenting a child. If given the option to start parenting right now, would you do it? (If you didn't already have a child, and everything else in your life was exactly the same, including the chronic pain, would you take the step of adoption your daughter)?

    I hope you are doing well. I pray God's blessing on your life!

I've just been plugging along.  November is a hard emotional month.  My brother's birthday was last week.  This is the third one since his death.  It's always a hard time.  Mine is coming up.  We used to always celebrate together.

My birthday is Sunday.  I'm not happy about being 40.  Then those crazy holidays are around the corner.

I keep telling myself it's only a passage of time.

I'd rather spend the time in Mexico right now...

    I am sorry about your brother. How sad for you. Grief takes a lot of time. Grief is also fluid, so remember when you are in pain, it will pass if only for a little while. 40 is young and you are lovely. I would love to escape to Mexico and skip the holidays. I think about it every year.
