First Entry-Flu

I don't know how it happened, I got the flu & I felt even worse then I have lately & I was feeling really sick.  Sad to know that when I think I am at my worst I can go down even further.  The other sad thing is that now I am waiting to get back to how I was feeling before.  I hate living with this illness, I just keep getting used to how bad I feel, it does make it nice when I am feeling better because I really appreciate it. 
I have been feeling bad for about 4 months, it seems like my good days are gone for good but I am an eternal optimist & know I will get better eventually.  That is what keeps me going.  It is what helps me deal with everything.  
Tomorrow I am leaving the house, I haven't been out in weeks & hope I will feel up to it.  I am looking forward to getting out, I guess I will see on Friday how i feel.  Please let me feel good enough.  I get so happy staying in my pj's, in my house, it is so comforting to not have to go anywhere, not move.  No one expects anything of me, except the people in my house & they know what they can expect of me.  Such a happy, content life.  lol!
Hugs, Denise

Ditto what Di said...glad to see your journal entry! They are such a great way to share, connect, get support. I love getting to know my friends here better. I\'m sorry you had the flu to deal with. We already feel like we have the flu most the time! Hope you are able to get out tomorrow and enjoy being out of the house for a while. Hugs...
