Hi everyone. How is everyone holding up? Is eveyone running about, preparing for harvest and then yes, WINTER.?? guess winter depends on where you live. I live in the midwest, so winter is a given. Last year though, little snow, only a couple of whoppers. The harvest. This time of year is so beautiful. As the earth mother thrills our senses with bright colors and the ever changing winds, it is a good time. I often think of the squirrel, you know they are the boy and girl scouts of the animal kingdom. their motto? Always be prepared. I guess we could learn a lot from the animals if only we watched. I sat and watched a little furry tailed one yesterday as it was eating sun flower seeds and corn outside my living room window. So cute, so delicate . Not many birds right now. Yet, migration will hopefully bring us some sights we haven't seen this summer as all go south. I have been out and watching the geese flying south always seems to be a brand new expereince. How can anyone tire of such beauty.? Yet, we got to get out there with the earth mother to experience all that is. The Creator, smart in knowing we humans are " visual " beings and if we look around, everywhere we look, we are being guided and healed.
My pain has been bad. the pelvic pain. guess it ain't worth talking about. it seems to always be there. no way to get rid of it..sit on it, stand on it and hopefully it keeps my innards where they need to be. this sort of fracture is well, challenging. I thought my life had enough limitations with the back injuries, bad healing, more complications, but I would take all that now instead of the pelvic thing. I scrubbed the kitchen floor the other day. Not a big thing, but for two days now the pain is worse. Do a little then seem to have problems. that is the routine. I know it by heart. still I struggle some days, thinking why can't it just all go away? well, it shall when my time comes to cross from this world to the glorious next. I hope I am in good standing, lmao. who knows
so is anyone really struggling? I feel sadness within this gathering. who needs to talk..to just dump it all, get it off your chest? it helps you know. well, know I am hearing the pain and the sadness, but you must bring your voice to us...
hugs and love..cathy






The first fracture I had ( a precursor to what was to follow) was a pelvic fracture. It was extremely painful and difficult to walk. Took weeks before the pain fianally started to subside. Now I have bursitis in that hip so......but it is manageable with lidoderm patches. Maybe Fall coming is hitting us all? The weather is changing and it is sad to let go of summer.
Hugs, Fred.

Hey Fredk: thanks for sharing. ya know, the pelvis just won't let me be comfortable. I was on crutches for 5 months. how do you not walk or sit or lay down and Not put pressure on your pelvis? hang ya from a tree or something? ha ha.. with all the meds I take at least I can somewhat function, but not at my normal level. course that stopped with the back injuries and surgeries. geez louise, i need a replacement body, hey, maybe like the biontic woman? hugs to you and all....sweet dreams cathyM
