500 did fairly well with my anxiety while traveling until Jordon took over. Accelerating to quickly for my liking and having to apply the break often due to heavy traffic caused my anxiety to rise and yelling to ensue. Joe ended up telling me to be quite. I tried hard but it still came out some. Joe did coach Jordon with his driving.
530p made it home safe from KY. Every inch of me is stinging throbbing
April 27
In great deep pain to bones from head to toes raging! It hurts to move. Oh, if I could only snuggle in His everlasting arms of grace to soothe the pain while I cry a while.
Thankful that I can lay my anxieties and cares at His feet and leave them there.
Bible Reading: 2 Kings 18-19, Psalm 55:22,
Pain eased a little as I forced myself to get up and moving a little. Washed couple loads. Hung one load on line.
Juicing: Spinach, apple, mango smoothie. It was disgusting. Forced myself to drink most of it. Cooked two scrambled eggs to get rid of yucky after taste.
Few chores at home: auto ins change, submit proof of income for Jakob’s loan. Gave me a bad headache. Had to rest my brain a bit.
Joe informed me of funeral to attend Friday. Now have to reschedule Jordon’s Senior photos again. Plus it’s suppose to rain all day Friday. Ugh .
Got excited when I saw how many blooms the rose bushes had. It’s taken 5 1/2 yrs to get pink roses to bloom that much.

1129a sharp paying in lft shoulder blade. Center of chest aches.
Mom told me she was talking to chiropractor about me the other day. He told her that it was good to see my progress. When I first started seeing him, my speech was slurred and thought process was slow. I’m speaking more clear now and am looking better. Good news to hear.
Need to rest my brain a bit in order to function through tonight’s service. Listening to wholetones music to help calm and quiet my brain.

600 remembered that I’m supposed to go renew license today and I haven’t gathered all the information yet. Have to get star on ID and need specific info. Ugh!
Transfer towels to dryer. Start another load laundry. Print list if required documents. Double check time office opens. Business hours still aren’t what they’re posted due to covid. Have to be there at 8am. Praying it won’t take long.
Info gathered. Have time for short nap. Praying all goes smoothly and quickly (well not too quick so I have time to process info thrown at me and I can respond accordingly.
Got in trouble y’day bc Joe asked me two questions during his sermon. One right after the other. I was attempting to answer first question but by time I could spit it out he asked second question. And it sounded as if I was arguing with him. Ugh! Frustrating and embarrassing. At least, I made people laugh. Don’t remember the questions, but later when we were talking about the day something that was said reminded me and I let him know about it.
I may not sound or look like I’m struggling or in pain from the outside, but I do so on a daily basis. It’s frustrating to tears at times, but I remind myself that God is with me and He us my refuge and strength (Psalm 46:1).
Feet freezing. Tourniquet tightening feeling in both legs from mid calf down to feet. Putting on socks to warm up feet.
