Stormy Day
Tuesday, May 13, 2008
I'm filling in at the insurance ageny today.
I got here over twenty minutes early, because I was trying to beat a thunderstorm.
Sometimes, I feel like all the weather is here is thunderstorms and high winds.
This is my last day working here. They are sad. I feel guilty for skipping out on them, but I have no choice - I have to earn a full-time income.
You know that your dogs rule your life when you are telling your husband, "No, you can't go anywhere today, because I have to work... So, you can't leave, beause that would leave the dogs home alone during a thunderstorm." I'm not too big of a person to admit that my dogs own me.
I have a sinus infection now. I'm not sure what I did to deserve this. I had not been sick for a very, very long time. In fact, Hubs was even saying, "Misty never gets sick. She's too mean to get sick, I guess." Then, I got that flu he had, which was all in my chest. After two weeks of that, I had a bad sore throat for several days. I guess it was all just moving from my chest to my head/face. Oh joy. My face feels like I've been in a fist fight. Oh well, it could be worse.
Well, I better go get some other things done. I'll be back :-)

Sick of Being Sick
Friday, April 25, 2008
I'm still sick. This is getting really old. I'll start to feel like I'm getting better, and then, all of a sudden, I go downhill and feel lousy again. My chest is full of congestion, I have no energy, and my fever comes and goes.
Being sick for so long, along with financial stresses, has caused me to succumb to the depression I've been fighting. I just don't have the energy to fight right now.
I realize I have not been visiting blogs, and I sincerely apologize for that. I'm not trying to make excuses, I'm just being honest about what's going on with me.
I'm hoping that once I'm over this illness, the depression will also be easier to fight. We'll see.
Maybe I need to get some silk flowers to put in a vase in here to brighten the mood, since I haven't been able to go on my walks.

It's Calling Me
Wednesday, April 23, 2008
I can't resist. I'm still ill, but, dangit, it's 74 degrees outside! The birds are chirping, the sun is shining, and when the breeze blows, I can hear it calling, "Misssssssty. Go for a walk Misssssssty." You can hear it too? See!
So, I still cannot take a breath without gasping, followed by subsequent hacking my lungs out while grabbing at my very sore chest, but, oh yes, I must get the camera and go for a walk. Besides, the fresh air will probably be good for me! Don't worry, I won't overdo it, but I can't let this beautiful day go to waste.
Oh, and an off the wall question for ya. How are you with men's fashion? Me? I'm horrible with all fashion. I'm a tomboy. Fashion just isn't my thing ;-)

WooHoo I'm Sick
Thursday, April 17, 2008
Great news! I'm sick. Now, I know you are probably thinking the fever is making me delusional, since I am saying that being sick is good news. Honestly though, I don't think I've ever been so happy to get sick and feel like crap. You see, my being sick means that I caught whatever Hubs has. This means that it isn't something more serious than the flu as we were beginning to think and worry. So, hopefully, there is no need for Hubs to have medical tests or deal with a clinical laboratory service. Yes, with some of the symptoms he was having, we were actually beginning to think there was something more going on than the flu.
So, I've got lots more that I want to tell you about, but I need to go lie down.

Yesterday's Photos
Saturday, February 2, 2008
Between taking care of Hubs, worrying about him (I'm a worrier - that's just how I am), and not sleeping worth a darn, I feel worn out and without energy. I had been out of bed for about a half hour and it was all I could do to keep myself from going back to bed! I'm going to have to snap out of this, or the Fibro will go into a flare. Hey, if I had one of those adjustable beds I could stay in bed and adjust it to have my laptop on my lap talking to all of you while I got some much needed rest and relaxation at the same time! Yeah, keep dreaming Misty, I've wanted one of those beds for a long time. LOL
Since it's a nice day, I'm trying to save all my energy so I can convince my body to take me for a walk in a little bit. In the meantime, I'll share some of yesterday's photos with you.
Found this nest built in some prickers. OUCH! Smart bird!

(c) Misty DawnSThis one is my favorite from yesterday. This barn is actually quite a long ways away, so I used my telephoto lens on the Sony for this shot. This barn is actually going to be in my living room one day. Confused yet? The owner of the barn has given us permission to tear the barn down and use the barn siding as paneling. It will add a nice rustic touch, don't ya think?
