Midi, that is excellent. I started my career in web development with a home based business, and would work 16-24 hours a day for months for a pittance. Screw that!!
 
The other day, I helped out at the local brain injury association baking up treats for their Hallowe'en party. I actually spent most of my time listening to another member vent about his condition and insurance company's treatment of him. I think that was even more important.
 
I mowed the front and back lawns. Last one of the season. It felt good to get out there and do something. I've always liked mowing the lawns. Instant gratification! You can see where you've worked and the areas that need more work and that there's a finish. Too bad recovery isn't that easy!!!

I got out early and did the laundry, used a medical device, did some research and bought some good organic groceries instead of fast food.
 
Today was a bad day..I reached out ,I ate....made sure my son and his friend ate. i really just made it to the end of the day.....I hate bad days!
 
I went out taking pictures with a friend, got some fantastic shots of these birds. You wouldn't believe it!! I had just said to my friend not a minute earlier as we were walking back to the car, "it would be nice to get a few more pics before we go", and she says, "who knows, maybe some birds.

What happens? These 3 Grey Jays (we found out what they were from a nice old lady at a gas station) come and land not 3 feet away, and slowly, they get closer and closer on the branches. So my friend Sue holds her arm out, and doesn't this bird land right on her finger!! And just sits there, looking at us for like a solid minute!!

We were both so stunned we just sat there staring at this creature, until Sue finally says "get a picture". Doh!! I did get two, not great, but memorabilia of the day.

Here is the album if your eyes need a break from reading:

Thank You...I just need to keep pushing forward...knowing tomorrow will be a better day but of course I now have a headache and i am praying that the vomitting does not start and go through the night......bad days bring negative thinking!!!
 
Man, that sounds brutal!! Is the vomitting from the head ache, I am guessing? Mabye a hot bath and get the hubby to rub your neck for ya.

do take care of yourself,
Dave
 
No Hubby...

No vomiting yet but I actually gave myself a shot of gravol..I am a nurse and i am now going to bed....thank you for your kind words though...i just sat with my cousin for a few hours, we helped each other but now my head feels like it is going to pop off...time to sleep. Thank goodness i feel tired though....tired enough to sleep. i still feel a bit nauseated but if I sleep I generally will wake up and it will be gone...positive thoughts!
 
I said NO MORE, I'M DONE!!!!! I decided to take care of me, and not put myself in emotional harm any longer. I'm Done......
