Journal Entry for April 23, 2009 Mood
Thursday, April 23, 2009

I'd like to say to all my friends here,I am sorry I have not been much of a friend here lately, I actually haven't been much of a friend to myself or my family. My pain levels have been just about intolerable. I have cried like a baby, nope, it didn't help the pain, maybe my feelings just a little bit.

Last night consisted of about 2 hours total of sleep and it wasn't good sleep, but I guess it's was better than none. Trying to think positive is wearing thin... but I am still trying .

I know this may sound crazy.. but I am actually missing myself.. I feel so out of touch with everything, like I have been in another world. Hurting like this just makes you think different. I am ready to feel somewhat normal again.. that is if normal is even a part of my world anymore.

Back in 2002 when I had all the nerve problems.. it took me a long time to except my life for what it was afterwards.. and now I am facing that same ordeal again with all of my health problems.

I will have to say, I think after the last few weeks, that my family have really took a better understanding in all I have to deal with.. they have watched me cry , and I know they felt so helpless .. even the kids have said, Momma is there anything I can do ? My response...." Just pray for me!" I know I am doing all I can , so I am letting the Lord handle the big parts!!!

I had to change my arthritis medicine, the one I was on, was causing me to have severe stomach pains, didn't start noticing the hurt until I started taking it 3 times a day, so I am hoping and praying that this new one will help me .

I still haven't got my sewing machine fixed.... but I did find out about a man that works on them and got his phone number. So hopefully we can get it to him over the weekend and he can get it up and running again.

I have been trying to work on some odd and end crafts that had been put back until I got through with this sewing spell I have been in.

Doing all of this stuff, has been a great way for me to get my mind off hurting.

I hope all of you have a really great weekend. God Bless You !! please remember me in your prayers.        Love Ya'll, Lori
