Back been a while
Well hello everybody I haven't been here I can't believe I have not been here for over year I don't like to write negative things and I was hoping some positive things will come about so that I would have something good to say but I know now that this is the way it is having fibromyalgia Ménière's migraines IBS gastritis things are not going to get any better every day at something and I struggle and I guess that's what life is I'm alone a lot and I hate being alone my husband had a heart attack since I last wrote my grandchildren don't come around much anymore he retired for a while but went back to a desk job but he's going to retire and another two years it seems like forever I didn't think my life would be like this. But as we get older other things come up , it will be 10 years in January that my daughters passed away and I'm still sad over that it's very hard some people can get through it better than others unbelievably both of my sisters have now lost a daughter but they are on antidepressants and it seems to be getting them through better I can't take much medications because of my sensitivity. I sit here every day and think what happened in my life I used to be so busy and active I even took in foster children at one time we move to a condo and I think that was a mistake it's slow my life down we got the condo up for sale and I'm hoping to sell it and get a small ranch my husband wants to go into woodworking and have a shop when he retires but we haven't had much luck in selling it if we have to stay here we may get an RV I have to have something that I can get out of here sometimes I'm having a sad down day sitting here alone looking at the walls the sun is shining but it's cold out winners coming holidays are coming and it's always sad because I have no family that really comes around I don't know why they don't come around I guess they had their own families and have things going on, I get on DS but now that we don't get along alerts or I don't I never know what's going on with anybody and I miss some of my friends my other friends that went to Facebook with me and I do keep in touch with them I'm so thankful for the ones that I do have I can only say that I would appreciate you keeping me in your prayers and that one day things will get better I pray for everyone on DS if I know you or not I know we all need help in one way or another well I hope it's not another year before I come back again wishing everyone well ,a old friend , Shirley

I get e-mails,when any DS Friends write journals. I love finding out how you are doing. You have many DS friends & sure they will be in touch.
Brandon loves seeing you & Bruce. Your other family members live you & sometimes must share their love.
Hoping both of us sell our houses soon.
Hi, good hearing from you. Yeah, I know, \"some days are diamonds, some days are stones\". Shirley, there is a book out that my gastro recommended to me, by a dietician. It is a new approach to that problem. I have since been dxed with gluten intollerance so I have to watch carefully what I eat but feel better. Always thought my symptoms were due to FMS. Anyway, don\'t stay away, you have friends here!
Hi Shirley,I am sorry that your daughter is not here.I hope you can find comfort in our Lords promise.
The weather in my neck of the woods is damp,cold and wet. I miss the summer all ready,so are my bones.I am glad you are back on here.Writing in my Journal has done me the world of good!
Hi Shirley. I pray things will get better for you and that your condo will sell so you can get that ranch. Don\'t ever feel bad about writing something negative. Sometimes it helps to get things out. It may even help with the loneliness now and then to write and have your friends be able to respond to your journals. The winter and holidays are sad for me, too, but I will be here for you!
Welcome back Shirley, missed you. Live can be like that. But am so glad your back.
Hi shirly, been thinking of you. My prayers are with you. Jesus loves you soooooo much, you dont even know how Web much. We all need him. I have been doing a little better. How is everything? I am here for you if you need me. God bless you dear one.
