Good morning PS and cando!
I am awake before 9 am today!
We never did get any snow yesterday, the forecast says snow showers today but I'm not going to count on that, it seems the chance of snow is over for now. They also moderated the cold temperature for tomorrow and Tuesday, it will be around 12 for a high and 5 below overnight one of the nights, that's much warmer than we had over Christmas. So I'm not too worried.

Hello all Sunday again
We had to run a couple of errands today. A tiny screw came out of Dh glasses which caused the lens to fall out/ We got them at Costco and luckily they are there to fix them 7 days a week. We also grabbed a new case as his was a sorry sight.
Picked up meds aswell, then straight home.
I have a migraine and just wrote a gobbly de gook sentence that made no sense.
Using up a hand soap in the toilet with a couple drops of essential oil then the toilet brush. It cleaned it up nice and smells really good.
I added up the essential oils that i still have and its about $3k worth. They have raised the price on all the oils so much i had to quit my membership a couple years ago, but the oils are still good and i really should use them more.
To Do
A pile of dishes are waiting for me
The fridge could use a wipe out
Might list a couple things in the local free site.

Good afternoon oust! How can you function at all with a migraine, shouldn't you be resting? I have only had one headache in my life that was bad enough to be called a migraine and all I wanted to do was crawl into bed with covers over my head.

oust hope you feel better and the migraine goes away,quickly. Hate those things... Searched for a previously completed medical form of DMom's to go by... I know that I have them on my computer, but couldn't find any. I know they're there, but didn't want to spend any more tiime looking. Called DrBro & he helped me complete it. Scanned it. Emailed to the new group. 24 oz of water so far, today. CD

The neuropathy pain is kept in check with meds, but the numbness is still constant. I feel unsafe on my feet. I fall and trip at the slightest little thing.
My cognitive abilities only last 10 minutes or so then I need an hour break. The mental fatigue is ridiculous.
Having both mental and physical limitations is kicking up my depression. I already had to double my meds.
Any suggestions on what I could do for positive progress within these limitations beyond the work for 15 minutes an hour I have been doing?

PS, if you're working for 15 minutes an hour with those limitations I think you're doing very well. I assume you're already thinking of all the things you can work on while seated, which would allow things to get done despite physical weakness, but I know some seated things need mental energy, like complicated paperwork. I imagine it's frustrating to want to do things and have your body just not cooperate. But maybe you can recognize that you're doing all you can with how you feel right now and that it's okay to go at whatever pace you need to. In other words, be kind to yourself!  I know it's easier said than done, but considering what your body has been through it will probably take a while to get more strength back. What do your doctors say about these side effects?

Good morning everypony!
peaceseeker here is my latest strategy. I can do an hour or two on and then need an hour off, and I have been listening to meditation/hypnosis with headphones. It kind of runs in the background while I do my own healing work. a lot of patiently listening to the clenches and pain in my body with my spirit chanting the Hawai'ian "thank you I'm sorry please forgive me I love you" essentially trying to bring loving consciousness everywhere.
It gives me the sense of "doing" something during my down time. 
I am pretty stressed right now. A lot of uncertainty, a bit of worry, as D was admitted and is still waiting on doctors. I feel very honored that five people want me to live with them. They even know me!  I wish we could all live together but in our own separate spaces. I wish I could buy the house behind DVD.
MEANWHILE I would like to get the house ready for DB coming over in three hours. yikes. what am I making for dinner?
oh good news, D's heart is not blocked, she just has a weird EKG and now is waiting on the gastroenterologist. I am so relieved!
