"Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them -- every day begin the task anew."
Saint Francis de Sales
It rained last night, storming- would be a blessing for our drought but I am in such pain- my fibromyalgia rearing its ugly head, damn monster it is.
I wrote a friend to see if I can use her hot tub today and then it dawned on me- get thyself in the bathtub, fool. I interrupted this post to do just that and I cried from relief. Isn't it funny, in the middle of a "crisis" the clear thinking is just not there, or is out of reach. But I reached it writing this - whew!
I think I soaked for 30 minutes in Orange Ginger bath gel, bath salts and Epsom salts (just tried it all) and I still have a headache but my pain level is down to 4 from 8 and the tears are dried.
Thank you God for my home, my bathtub and my brain that can still think just in delayed time..
Cheers and have the best day you can!
