Feeling a little better
3 days in a row of Wii Walk it out has helped. Today I did 75 minutes. It just really helps me to "get away" for a while. Food today was really good. I went to the grocery store yesterday and bought some whole grain bread, some fruits and veggies. Ate my oatmeal for breakfast. We had been out of my Silk Lite soy milk and I also think that "hurt" me with the hormone situation. So I bought some of that too and had some in my oatmeal today. Everyone, including David, likes the Silk milk for cereal and they always drink my milk instead of their own! (Paul gets Lactaid milk and David drinks whole milk.) Can't use the Silk for mashed potatoes or mac and cheese as it makes it taste funny, but in cereal or to drink, this stuff is great!
Work is ok. Stress is ok. Not off the charts. Hopefully that will get better. No plans for Super Bowl. Just as well that I stay home, watch the game, get some work done, relax.
Well, gotta run. Off to my Friday night bowling league. I bowled a 204 last week! Woo Hoo! That's good for me. I bowl with people who have over a 200 average! One guy has bowled (5) 300 games this season alone! That is a perfect game. Sheesh!
Thank you to all of my wonderful DS friends. I would truly be in the looney bin if not for you guys! I can't believe it has been 4 years for me on DS! Wow!

I am so glad you have found a way to escape the stress even it was only for a short time.
Knock their socks off at bowling tonight!
Alright!! A very good update.
Just managing the \'day-to-day\' of life well makes a huge difference over time.
I follow my \'to do\' list and that allows me to focus on what I \'can\' do without seeing the \'bigger\' picture of the crisis I am attempting to survive where there is so much I am not able to manage well alone. This \'to do\' list allows me to reach the end of the day feeling I have managed to accomplish the \'basics\' to keep life moving forward. When well I had a health club membership and was into mountain bike riding. Now lifting 2-lib weights 20 repetitions is celebrated just as much as the bike rides used to be. The greatest problem I have is in overdoing it and with this illness that is a huge negative which can leave me very ill for days. Just one of the lessons which took me a good six years to come to terms with. I kept going to bed at night thinking I would soon wake up as if getting over the flu. I have had this disability fourteen years and finally accept most of the limitations placed on my life and now am working at adapting to find a quality life once again.
Great on the bowling. I used to bowl back in high school and when I hit my first 300 game I was \'over the moon\' with happiness.
((hugs)) of shared support.

I love Silk almond milk flavored with dark chocolate! Am leery of soy, as studies have shown that it can contribute to premature brain aging.
Great job with taking care of yourself. Happy you feel better.
You are doing a great job with your exercise. Good tension reliever.
Hope you bowled over 200 again .. Yeah...for the 204.
Have a great weekend.
