5:00am- gotta take my husband to work. It’s too early.
6:00a- I already have a headache.
7:00a- can tell I haven’t driven in a while bc my legs cramped up driving home. Wore me out too. Taking nap.
Muscles in legs twitching horribly. Need to calm so I can sleep it off.
9:00a- oops! Slept longer than I planned. Need to check on kids.
10:59p- day got away from me.
Goals today were: write “thank you” cards, clean window,
I’m exhausted. Legs cramping, neck & shoulders ache, rt hip hurts, cramping in lower abs especially when I cough, low back throbbing, gas, hands swollen and achy
Writing down daily goals and completing them make me feel better

7:25a- I hurt all over! Head hurts too. Body feels chilled. There are times I get tired of hurting all over all the time.
It’s a good thing to give thanks to the Lord and sing praises to His name.
*wish I could remember rest of lyrics
8:00a- having a rough morning. I’m a basket case. Tears flowing. 🙁
Joe trying to get things going this morning but it’s just rubbing me roughly. Trying my best to mind my verbiage so to not cause argument.
I don’t understand how I can go to bed happy and calm and wake up sad and upset.
Got a sweet message from Emma this morning that’s she’s praying for me.
9:15a- riding with Dad & Mom to visitation this morning. Radio going, Dad talking, Mom talking – I hear it all but none of it is registering. It’s all just scrambled noise – too much going on to focus on one thing. Crazy!
10:00a- chilly tingling sensation in center of chest. Toes tingling and cold with sensation moving slowly to cover whole foot.
Who can cheer the heart like Jesus, by His presence all divine? True and tender, pure and precious, O how blessed to call Him mine! All that thrills my soul is Jesus, He is more than life to me; And the fairest of ten thousand In my blessed Lord I see.
10:33a- gotta get my brain out of fight & flight mode. All my anxieties and fears come flooding to the forefront!!! Praying constantly for protection!!! Beehives (I’m allergic), big dogs (I’ve been attacked -thankful my husband was near to get mean dog to let go of my foot!). Go boldly (I’m a chicken right now). Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world (good thing bc I’m a feeble soul). One possible prospect.
I’m an overcomer. With God’s help I can do this.
12:22p- made pasta salad for lunch. Dezirae helped me cut the black olives up. I’m resting now. Legs throbbing! Neck hurts. I’m tired.
10:05p- rested by watching a movie after lunch. Spent rest of day doing bulletin, monthly prayer list, printed nursery schedule & procedures list to laminate, made chili & rolls for dinner.
Legs are throbbing and sore. Two days left of nystatin oral rinse and thrush is still not completely gone. Don’t know what to do.
I didn’t know that echinacea can keep candida at bay. I need to start that regimen back up – 3 weeks on 1 week off
Feb 3
7:00a- Upon waking, my lower legs throbbing as if I had worked out heavy and hard for a long while. Rt hip throbbing. Hands swollen.
I’ve forgotten what piece I was gonna play for offeratory today. Know I didn’t write it down. Ugh!
I’m determined it’s still gonna be a good day.
Tongue feels funny. Check in mirror. Thrush is worse than yday all because I gave in and ate three yeast rolls for dinner! This is ridiculous. I’m tired of not feeling well. I’ll ask my wellness friends for suggestions.
– Oil of Oregano, Echinacea, Grapefruit seed extract,
9:00a- practicing hymns for today. Ugh three sharps are not my friend. Started trying to play and asked the Lord to help. I cannot explain it but was able to transpose to flats and play that one song.
I think forcing myself to keep playing piano has actually helped my brain.
Brain feeling foggy and blurry already. Wish I could get someone to explain the how’s and why’s of this injury. I may look normnal but I’m far from it on inside.
Shoes I’m wearing are killing my legs! I may have to be a country chic and go barefoot for services. I can’t torture myself this way. They aren’t even heals. I don’t get it.
11:00a- checked on food to see how it’s cooking in crocpkot. Discovered that I forgot to plug it in!!! I dislike when I do that. It’s frustrating. Plugged it in and on high. Hope it works but got feeling it won’t be ready.
12:30p- food is nowhere near ready. Guess we’ll have to back up and punt. Decided to go to store pick up fried chicken & a few groceries. Kids big help getting it done quickly.
2:15p- I’m exhausted. Need to rest a while.
9 :57p- cat nap lasted about 15min. Hard to sleep when you hurt so much. Chose to do some work around church. Trimmed up the roses bushes. Typed up some things for Joe. Had Jordon & Dezirae to each help do something too. Had good services today.
Had lunch for dinner. Surprised Joe tonight. Legs still sore and throbbing. Lower back aches. Rt side hurts. Hands swollen and achy. Rt ear hurts. Parts of skin crawling. Feet hurting.
