This and That

A general update and blog this week.. Aaron has been sick all week with the flu he had 2 days off and is feeling better today but he is far from over the flu. This bug has been making the rounds and people here have had it for up to 3 months before they are symptom free. I have had a off week too, partly due to "feminine issues" and that on top of my blood sugars still working them selves out with my medications.

I was so exhausted on Tuesday I put my self to bed at 7.30pm, and couldnt even keep my eyes open by the tempting offer to watch Mega Mind on Dvd. I slept right through to 8am the next morning. I awoke feeling much better. Today I'm feeling in better spirits. I had a check up with the Diabetes specialist. She is very sweet and spelt it out to me today that I did in fact have Diabetes and that it was for life. I would eventually be able to come off the meds but will always have to eat like a Diabetic. Why am I always the last to know!!! I'm not sure why the permanency hadn't hit me yet but it hadn't. The good news is I'm doing very well, I am eating right, varied and controlled.

I'm sitting in our little Italian coffee shop on the high st. A change from Starbucks, I felt more creative being here. I brought a journal to continue with my poetry, Its been a a while since I have written any and I wanted to have a hard copy of my poems all in one place. So I am currently coping and editing them from my computer to my journal. I may post one or two here and there but i find they are mostly indulgent and no one want to hear me wailing on or being sappy lol. But if you do just say!

This has been an odd week, it feels like its been on long slumber party with out the party, as I have felt lousy for most of the week. I have done no ministry, which is weighing on my mind. But new week new me right!

I just got a call to volunteer at EDAC www.eldoradoartscouncil.org. Its the local non profit arts association, I love being involved it really inspires me and I feel a little involved. There is only so much time I can dedicate to personal pursuits in this system. So this is the little I do for me in the arts. It propels me to create the little I do, weather its writing, scrap booking (new to me) making Jewelery or painting.
