Argh.... what a weekend!

I make no excuses as to why I have slipped off of my daily post routine and I will get back on schedule very soon. Writing this regularly is not a habit of mine, I have tried time and again, but never really succeeded.

My fibromyalgia and my work schedule nearly put me back in the emergency room. It seems that when I attempt to feel better AND get some work done, like I once could, I end up in a flair up. In my case, the piece of me that is most effected is my digestion system. I avoid gluten, which helps a lot, and I try to always have a snack handy when I am away from home, but not all plans work to my good.

I am discovering what is referred as "fribro fog" where the memory is effected either by the condition or by the medications taken to treat the condition, which includes opiates. I made a mistake that I never ever do, I forgot to write down a client's order. Luckily, everything worked out but it isn't like me to handle things this way.

I, once again, am experiencing sleepless nights battling my aches and pains. Having gaps in memory isn't good at all. It's hard to keep your word, when you can't remember what was discussed.

In the realm of my teaching career, last week went very well. We had a successful site visitation, the high school kids did very well on their Cajun meal of blackened catfish, dirty rice, king cake and banana foster.

There was no podcast scheduled for this weekend and despite wanting to put one together, I did not push for someone to interview. I though about just posting solo but resting seems to be the order of today. Strength, courage, and wisdom. New levels to be yet achieved.
