130 woken by loud noise…almost sounded like someone knocking on door. Put robe on and went to check on it but none up nor sound discovered. Prayed myself back to sleep.
710a I actually have house to myself this morning. Kind of nice. Will work on chores little at time.
Sometime during morning discovered the paint jar wasn’t fully closed and tipped over causing spill. Oh, no! Thankfully paint was in a plastic bag or it could’ve been worse. Took to table not realizing paint leaking thru bag too! Paint on table. Paint on hands. Not water based. Ugh! Quickly try rinse stuff off in sink. Not washing off!! Making messes everywhere!. Wipe paint off table with paper towels. Whew! Takes bit but it’s off both areas on table. Decide to use some of paint to paint a life jacket. End up getting all over hands. Have to use nail polish remover to get if off hands. Takes a while to get mess cleaned up. Wears me out. Now feel like I need nap.
700p Dad leading singing tonight bc Rick sick. Throws me off bc only singing two stanzas without prior warning. I’m thinking it’s 2nd stanza when he’s singing 3rd. It tickles me so much so I start laughing and stop playing for a bit til I stop laughing then start playing again. What a mess! Certainly keep things lively in church. Not the typical Baptists. Lol.
1015 exhausted. Lights bright and bothersome. Headache. Feet cold. Low back throbbing. Rt hip throbbing. Thirsty. Upper torso burning throbbing. Hands swollen and stinging.

745a Went to bed freezing but woke up hot. Woke from nightmare. Had several of them last night. Couple of them scared me awake with a gasp. Whole body throbbing. Joints all really stiff and moving difficult. Stomach cramping. Lft arm and hand went to sleep while reading Bible. Had to sit up to relieve severe tingling.
Positive note headache has eased some. Lights still bothersome. Sinuses not as congested.
Maybe the colloidal silver & Probiotic combo is helping. Taking 2 tsp colloidal silver in am. Multivitamin w/ D, B12 mid morning. Vitamin C 1kmg am & pm. Probiotic with evening meal.
Tummy doesn’t feel bloated or hurt as much.
825a lft hand and arm went numb and tingling again. Can’t feel buttons on phone. Trying to post today’s verse. Frustrating.
930a muscles in lft arm spasming so hard that my family can see it. Tried moving arm to stop. Still continued. Lasted 20 minutes or so.
1220 I’m exhausted and haven’t hardly gotten anything done. Making kids do Bible & English today to finish schoolwork for week. Dezirae having trouble. Jordon breezes through. It upsets Dezirae Jordon gets done so quickly. He asks questions as needed. She upsets me for comparing & getting upset. Routine is out window bc Joe’s home.
1000p rt wrist throbbing and quite swollen most of day. Exhausted and deep bone pain thru body. Lethargic. Head hurts. Brain for fish.

750a so much pain does not make one want to get up. Woke from horrible nightmares. Need to calm brain back down.
Woke to both arms numb and tingly. Entire torso burning stinging pain. Hands swollen and throbbing. Legs ache deeply. Feet hurt. Toes tingly. The weight of Joe’s arm feels like it’s crushing my side – it feels so heavy (though I know it’s not). Neck hurts. My upper body warm but toes & tip of feet are freezing.
His arm may feel extra heavy due to extreme pain but I don’t complain bc it’s his way of showing he loves me and it’s comforting in the midst of the pain.
Should have expected the extra pain due to two named storms in the Gulf which are expected to hit land as soon as Tuesday. It’s been since I think around 1935 since this happened. First time in my lifetime. I don’t even remember what I’m suppose to do to prepare for hurricane.
Read Daniel 7-12. Verse that sticks out…
Daniel 12:10
Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
We are in the midst of a perverse generation. Many seek to serve self and will hurt whomever they can to make themselves look better or advance their own cause. Many Christians are claiming 1 Chronicles 7:14 by mouth but their actions shew me their ways are tainted with the world’s standards. They have played on the line too much it has blurred their vision.
If I could only see this world the way You see, Lord, I just know I’d serve You more faithfully.😪
830a Asked Joe to rub the pain rub oil all over me. It’s helping. Still in lots of pain but can move slowly now.
Joe made breakfast: Grilled egg, bacon, & cheese sandwich
1000 kids asked to go to flea market. We brought my wheel chair due to me being much pain today. Passed out tracts. Met a guy that used to be in the daycare at church & his siblings went to the school. Invited to come join us. Neat to meet people who used to go to our church.
Stopped at Wal-Mart on way home. Needed few items for dinner. I’m exhausted but enjoyed the day.
4pm neighbors are having a party. Lots of people and music blasting. It’s so loud it’s rattling my chest and hurting me. Giving me a headache!
1000p finally quiet again. Now maybe I can try to get rid of migraine they gave me. Ugh! In much pain from head to toe. Both ears ringing. Skin itchy.
1100 nerves feel like they’re swollen and trying to expand past my skin.
Took night meds. Took Naproxen. Diffusing lavender oil. Applied sleepy lotion.
