Have been having problems sleeping lately don`t know if it is the weather or what but I usually wake up four or five times a night and if I don`t wake up that many times it is usually because I am up all night...lol...Today a cold front is comming in from the north and it is causing almost every bone in my body to hurt.When you top all this off without getting any sleep it makes things pretty bad,not just for me but every one around me.My wife must be made of some really good stuff to have to put up with me for all these years and going through all the accidents and injuries with me .Some times I just wonder what did I do to deserve this.What could have been so bad for me to have to go through all of this.I really don`t know,If someone has a clue would you please tell me.Because I would really like to know then maybe I could fix it or ask for forgivance for what ever it was that was so bad .In case you didn`t get the hint I was just venting about all of the things that have happened to me over the years.I know that I can`t change the things that I have done but I know that I can be forgiven if I did something wrong.I just haven`t got a clue as to what it is that might have caused me to have to suffer the way I do.Some of it is my own fault for trying to do some things that maybe I shouldn`t even try doing but I have to learn what those things are and no one can really tell me just what it is I can do and what I can`t.They can say"Well old joe over here he can`t do this or that but we don`t know exactly how that will affect you".Of course all of this dose not do me any good because when something needs to be done and I am the only one around then I take it as this has to be done by me and me alone.Some times there is just to much to get done and no one around except me to do it so there ios my problem.And I have been raised to do what ever you can and don`t put it off until tomorrow if you think you can get it done today.Am I wrong to think this way,it has been ingrained in me since I was a little child to at least give it your best try before you ask for help.Is that so wrong.Enough for today I guess I will go and lay down for a while and maybe one of my med`s will take over the pain........lol.........

It sounds to me as though you are trying to blame yourself for everything that has gone wrong in your life. I know all of us get down now and then and try to blame ourselves when something does not go according to our plans, but you cannot just assume that all this is your fault. Give yourself a break and don\'t blame yourself for everything that happens. Jim
Sigh, me too. I am not making much head way this month. But it is winter so a little hibernation is okay i keep telling myself. I was able to nap the afternoon and I was grateful for the nap. Since I do not feel so good I question all that has happen. I am at a gate of some other level of acceptance or refusal: i am wrestling with my loses; losing more of what I use to be as this new person stays on and the old me does not return. I have a friend who once again just can not understand why I can not shop all day and go everywhere; she is annoyed and so am I. This months bran changes are evident in my art and in my stamina. I am an abyss but not alone ; I have friends such as yourself that so understand.
