I called my step mother last night to see how she was doing…and
she is doing very well. She has immersed herself in yardwork, dieting, and
getting reacquainted with some old friends. She is also returning to an active
status in her church. All of these things are wonderful…and they are what my
dad would have wanted for her.
I have found my own mood and emotions lifting this week…much
to my surprise and joy. For the first time in a year or more…I awoke this
morning with no neck or back pain. I have had really awful pain in both on a
daily basis for over a year. A trip to the doctor early on resulted in a
diagnosis of stress…and he gave me a muscle relaxant and valium…neither of
which I can take until bedtime… (although he prescribed them twice to three
times daily). So…when I awoke this morning and had no pain…I was more than
surprised…and sooooo happy! I had forgotten what it felt like to feel good in
the morning!
I am looking forward to this weekend! We are taking Sophie
to the circus tomorrow morning….I LOVE THE CIRCUS! I always have! The weather
is forecast to be warm and sunny this weekend…with the highs reaching nearly
80! With any luck at all…we will get to enjoy the great weather and relax!
