Drama drama drama

Well life never stays boring for long. My niece is still making some bad choices. I don't know how to help her get her life on track. She is really having issues with her parents. Part of it is clearly what she is doing but her parents are not really helping the situation. I had a long deep conversation with my sister today and hopefully she took some of it too heart but who knows.

I am trying to decide on how much help I can give my niece or how much I am willing to do. I worry about who she is hanging with and what they do and how much they are affecting her behavior.

Gonna do a reading tonight or tomorrow and see if the cards can help with focusing my energy and how I can best help her.

Peace.

Busy weekend

Well spent most of the day at my oldest sister's house with all of the family for Easter. Today was supposed to be the nicer of the two days but that was not the case. It was really windy and cloudy but it cleared up later today. Drama revolving around my youngest niece and her parents. Just want to knock some sense into all of them.

I plan on spending Sunday working on my yard and stuff to get it cleaned up and looking nice. Curb appeal is important. I will probably see if Karen can come over and give me some advice on what I should do to help that. I am not a flower bed type of person but they are here so I need to make them look good.

Peace.

Busy weekend ahead

This weekend is going to be full of doing things to the house. My sister Karen is coming over on Saturday to help paint. I just need to decide which room I need the most help with. I am leaning toward the kitchen with all of the cabinets being cleaned and painted.

If it is nice enough I want to try and get out and work on the yard.

My mom is asking if I am going to put my house on the market and I told her probably. At first I was going to just to get rid of it and move to the Shanti now I am thinking on selling it because my knees and fibro are causing too many issues with having to take care of it and going up and down all of the stairs.

My fibro seems to be doing ok with the new meds. I am a little short tempered but not too much. I don't think I am having any of the other side effects. I hope it will help for a long time, at least though the summer.

Peace.

SPRING!!!

Happy Spring. I am so glad that Spring is officially here. I am ready for the warming of the days and more sunlight.

Time to start Spring cleaning. While I am not a cleaning fan I am ready to get rid of things and get ready for the season. Hopefully I can get out and do some yardwork today since tomorrow is going to be cooler and might rain.

I will have to get my list (yes I am a list maker) made and organized in what I want to do today. I seem to work better and get more done if I take the time to make a list and then can mark things off as they get done.

So enough chatting gotta get to working (after another cup of coffee).

Peace.

So far so good

Well I started my new fibro treatment Monday night. So far I have not experienced any side effects that I can pin to the treatment. Some of what I normally deal with are on the list of side effects so who knows. But I have not gotten the upset stomach.

So I think I am feeling better and seem to be sleeping better. Now my knees are both hurting and am having trouble with them. I wonder if they are getting worse or just that the fibro is doing better and I am noticing the pain in the knees. I wonder why the pain pills don't seem to help with the knees. I don't understand how they are supposed to work on pain but don't seem to help with other pain.

So I am hoping that everything is under control and that I can get a bunch of things done this weekend. The weather is supposed to be nice on Saturday so I hope to get out and do some yard work and get it ready for Spring.

Just going to play everything by ear.

Peace

Started new treatment for Fibromyalgia

Well I just started a new treatment for fibro. I have tried all kinds of other treatments and meds. I just started Savella which was approved last year for Fibromyalgia.

So I am hopeful that this will help. I have been so tired and in pain since my dad got ill and passed over that I am just exhausted. I need to the energy to get my dreams on track and to get things moving to get my house in shape to move.

Wish me luck.

Peace.

Weekend at Shanti

I sent a really great weekend at the Shanti. It was chilly and rainy but it was nice to be on the land and at the house. I spent Saturday in meetings for the business and getting ready for the event season and then enjoyed the evening with a small fire to take the chill off the house reading and watching movies.

Sunday I spent the morning outside cleaning out dead grass and plants from a couple of planting beds. Lots of compost material when I got done. Still lots more to do but really enjoyed working on it even as wet and chilly as it was. After that I had a pb&j for lunch and then started to do some cleaning in the house.

Fred, my cocker spaniel, loved being outside in the wet but Buford, the chijuajua mix, was not happy about it and stayed in the house most of the time.

I took several breaks to read Gaia's Garden and just enjoyed the day puttering around.

Would have liked to have stayed but had to head home. Soon I will be there for the season and hopefully permanently if I can get things worked out.

Peace.
