Hellooooo
Dear DS friends .. hellooooo. I have not abandoned you. Going through this anti-social phase, not sure why. My sis who I used to speak to daily, now hears from me maybe once per week. Guess its a time for introspection.
I'm doing pretty well post surgery and am so grateful. Got off to a shaky start when I got back to work. Week 1 I crashed by Thursday which was disappointing. Week 2 my son got sick and after taking care of him for a couple days I crashed again. Week 3 I got sick.. really?!?
Last week I worked my first 40+ hour week in office in what 2 yrs? Today am working from home after a hectic week including a conference yesterday executed by my team and in which I was a presenter. Whew!
Walked back into mega crises at work, my boss actually made me cry last week, and made me want to cuss yesterday. It aint easy, I've been working and wiping out day after day. No personal life right now, but so grateful I'm holding up.
Still gotta do my catching up, in the meantime you are in my heart and in my prayers. I pray you are all feeling good inside, despite the challenges our bodies bring. Blessings DS friends.

Hi Max! Good to hear from you! I know that you\'re happy to have worked a full week! I can only imagine how exhausted you are!
I don\'t think you\'re being antisocial! I just think you\'re pooped! You need to rest up now, this weekend. Your body is really tired and it will punish you if you don\'t hit the sack, and rest your mind and body!!
Glad you are working from home today. Less stimulation from the outside world. Makes it a bit easier on you!!
PHOOEY on your boss. I virtually slap him for making you cry! We\'ll have none of that!!!!
You are in our thoughts and prayers as well, Max. Take good care! xoxo
Yep here\'s an extra slap from me too.Bad boss for making my friend cry.40hrs wow that\'s a marathon Maxie babe.Glad you got through the post surgery alright.Sorry you\'ve had a few obstacles along the way, but hey you\'re holding up really well.Hope your darling boy is feeling better.No exciting news at my end.Still in a long crash and bedridden.Major over it.Take care and rest when you can.Good to hear from you and no pressure if we don\'t. All cool.Hugs xo
I understand anti-social. I\'ve been that way myself for the past 3 weeks.
Work and family have to come first. I tried to work (teaching math to adolescents!) for a year after I got sick, and I understand what a hectic job does to a cfs body and mind.
Under the circumstances, you are doing well. You\'re still Mad Max!
