Day 4
Submitted by 1sweed on Fri, 04/19/2013 - 20:32
This will be day four because, well it falls next in line so why not. I have been so busy the last several days that I really wore myself out. Too many errands and too little time set aside for myself. I ran myself ragged trying to keep up with the physical and mental chores, that others laided out for me, until my brain shut down and I could almost think no more.
Everyday pressures are hard on us who try our best to pretend we are okay and just grit our teeth and smile, and say everything is just peachy when it really is not. Weakness is hard to admit, even to ourselves. We think we can keep on doing everything and nothing will stop us on a roll, then suddenly we go to get up one morning and the legs will not work.
Then we panic and think the oh no, till we remember it is our own fault because we pushed to hard and did far more then we are able to do, so wham we are laid low for a day or week or month. When will I learn that just because I have a few good days does not mean I am cured. It means I had a few good days.
A friend visited me today and after she left I thought to myself I hope complaining it not the only thing I did or talked about. I was so tired trying to think that words popped out of my mouth that I don't normally say and I thought boy am dumb to waste a vist with a good friend by talking about my problems. Gosh, I am usually better company than that. tomarrow my brain will return and I will continue dealing with this a day at a time.;-)

Click on your blog. and of course you see no recent blogs because you have not started one yet. Whew! Your doing ok. Now on that page look on the left side and in that column note where it says post to your blog. Now click that and make your first post on your blog. I will be looking forward to reading it.
Don't worry it takes time to learn how a site works. :)
