Feeling better Mood
Wednesday, June 10, 2009 | A General Update story

Today is starting out to be really nice. 

 

I am finally feeling connected to others and have made some good friends on DS.  Its nice to know there are people out there actually experiencing some of the same issues I am with health and emotions.  I was floored to meet a wonderful friend who is very supportive and assisting me in thinking about finding a better Dr to follow a chronic problem I have.

 

Home life is getting better mostly because my spouse is really trying to balance out our lives.  It always seems that when one person is making all or nearly all the money they hold the power.  I am doing more work these days, which makes me feel more useful and am volunteering to do some publication work to get my skills up to speed again.

 

Whew....all I have to do is master the weight issue and I will be one happy camper!

    Just remember, you BOTH work hard to make things work smoothly. And running a house IS work.

    Thanks for reminding me of that Lynne. My spouse doesn't always see that I do work. When I am overworked he just says, I wish i could stay home. I was feeling badly over the weekend because at one time I had a great career. Now because I couldn't handle the demands of the carer and taking care of things - I do probono work and beg my neighbors to hire me. Its pretty ridiculous.
