Feeling Low

I haven’t felt my usual happy self the last few days. Sorry. I’m overwhelmed with notifications which I am trying to work on little by little. No desire to be here. I’m exhausted from our wild adventures over the last two weeks. They took their toll. I’m sad that Tuesday was the last day we saw our younger son until August 17th. He’s going to take his girlfriend to our favorite inn and marina Friday and Saturday (we are going next Thursday and Friday) and on Sunday he and his girlfriend are leaving for Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington for a food expedition and 3 national parks. I’m also down after Tuesday’s beauty treatments. I try not to look into the mirror, because I have black and blue running down my cheeks and needle marks all over my swollen face. Had to cancel lots of fun things this week. Just wanted to let you know my circumstances. I will read after lunch and try to take a little nap.

And in a few days you will be back to your normal self again. This is a bump in the road, you will reach the other side, very soon! Pray, and don't lose heart, Dianne

Thanks Kharla. Now that the sun is back after 3 days of hiding, I feel a bit better. Oh, no! There it goes again!

@DianneN I know what you're saying, about the sun! I spent hours by Tawas Beach in my car, Mr. Sunshine never showed up:( I consume vitamin D, like it's chocolate candy!

@DianneN Sometimes it happens. It can be difficult to know why we feel the way we do.

Thanks for understanding. I think a good nap will help if only I can fall asleep. At least my book is interesting to help me relax.

@MommyOfEli2013 My doctor told me I had deep fatigue. It sucked.

The bruises and swelling will go away soon. The 17th will be here before you know it and you will see him again.

Don't worry Dianne, we'll still be here when your back in the swing of things. You've certainly been on a social whirlwind lately. Rest as much as you can from your beauty treatments. Enjoy your nap and curious minds want to know...what are you reading??

Thanks , Marilyn. I just finished The New Girl by Daniel Silva. So good! A hubby’s hand-me-down, but he gave me the thumbs up on it.

It is completely okay, fine and normal to feel sad, take a leave for rewiring, resting and sleeping! Take your own time!
