Vacation

No, not me but my sons and their families started

their vacation yesterday.They are headed to Florida. Two vehicles, two sets of parents and 7 kids. These two cousins are the mischievous ones. I wish the " good health fairy" could wave a wand over me and I could be physically able to join my family on one of their trips. Don't think that's going to happen anytime too soon.... So I stay behind in my home and look forward to the daily pics I get on my cell phone which I am thankful for. No need for a pity party as I have opted out of that already today. I told myself to get over it and I am not going to my 35th high school reunion tonight 45 minutes south of here as I don't feel like saying....HI....I am Peggy and in the last years I have had 7 grand kids and CFS and Fibro have highjacked my life and that's all I have to tell you. I know, bad attitude....so best stay home and catch some pics of it on others facebook later in the week.

Rise (Slideshow with Lyrics)

This is a song that has been lifting me up a lot lately....Renee, after reading your post I decided to try and post this in hope that it would speak to you and lift you up..Rise my blogger friend Rise....Greater is he that is in you!!!

Finally, 270 three and one half inch 9 Patches......

I had wondered if the day would come

when I would see all these little suckers

all sewn.The design wall was untouched for toooooo long.

Glad I am able to focus on it some now. I love all these little nine patches. I had planned to have the quilt top done for my birthday in Sept. but am not sure...as my health got in the way. I am sure all you with CFS understand that. It gets in the way with a lot of things in our life....it gets in the way of our LIFE!! So we do our best and live each day one hour at a time one day at a time and give it all we have to have a life we can enjoy... I just know I can get this done. May not look like it does in the magazine....but then again it might. I can feel the cloud of depression lifting slowly and wish it would take this anxiety with it. I thank God for the progress I have been able to make in the last few weeks and hope the days continue to improve. There are good ones and then not so good ones...but much better than the first of June. I hope and pray the two new Drs I am working with will be able to get me back to where I was or maybe even a little better than. Is that too much to hope for?

Hotter Than a Firecracker Here

I thought I would take a look at my pictures of

the big blizzard of 2011 today. It was after supper

around the time this picture was taken..

..today after supper it is 104 degrees.Wouldn't take long to melt that snow off the chairs

today. It is so hot you can't even go out and enjoy sitting on the porch.

Don't know which I hate worse anymore....extreme cold or extreme hot.

Probably cold as you can just put on more clothes

and get warmer.....in the heat your more likely

to just have to deal with it no matter what.

Like when you go out to get in your car and it

is so hot you have to hold the doors open

and let the heat out before you quickly hop in

and start it and turn on the air conditioner!

Don't like this hot weather at all.

I started a new depression medicine on June 21st

and am sleeping better which is helping the CFS and

Fibro some. I feel the depression lifting very slowly...

it will take time they say. I think you can dr

a person faster that has a heart attack than

a person in an having major depression.

I am not even going to try to post about the

anxiety...it some better but not today.
