Mercy it has been a week in survival mode with pain pills.  I just have lost it, and am so over the edge with pre-menapuase and TBI trials and tribulations.  WE will succeed and be winners.  I am so angry about the TBI and the continual pain in my abdominal area. And i am really mad that i can not drive.   Pain is difficult to work around.    The pain has been nuts the past week but this morning i woke up and it seemed to have dissipated some or the pain meds are still in my system.  The day has gone fair and better.  I have not been able to paint all week.  Maybe later in the week I can sit down and paint. I hope maybe this week to have some better report.  The gardeners did  dig a new flower bed for irises that will be delivered at the end of the month.  so that is a bright spot coming.  I leave you with a cheery blooming irises garden dreams that  i will paint a picture of soon.  What is your favorite color of iris?
