Good one SC :)!

The feeling of satisfaction after you've pushed yourself to achieve is like no other. Well done SC - keep on stepping :hug:

Every time I am close to giving up something steps in to lift me up. It is not my inner strength and while you all help me much, it is something far greater. I believe it is my higher power stepping in. I think God is hearing my prayers, he forgives me, and helps me when I don't have the strength or will to fight on.
This morning I lied in bed for almost an hour. I had no pain, no numbness or burning, just pins and needles. It was a small miracle and I dared not move as I knew the symptoms would start but what a joy it was to feel relatively normal just for that time. I really needed that reprieve and the hope it brought me.
Wishing you all a blessed day.

That's what happens with me. There are the days; nothing accomplished; but when a day or even a few hours that I accomplish something I wanted to do; I feel good about it.

You mentioned someone wanting your phone #. Whatever the other party saw, he must have thought you looked like someone he might want to know better.

I deal with 24/7 pain issues in addition to PN; but wanting to try to be more upbeat for someone else..It's having a purpose. My husband is not a nursemaid; although he does do the driving . Both of us had been widowed before we married. (What I am getting at; is maybe you don't have to assume you will be alone the rest of your life.)

SC,
The best is that we can be open with one another on NT.:hug:

God is strength to cope. Glad you are looking to Him.
Wishing you blessings as well.

Today in The States it is Labor Day, a national holiday. The country will be pool side and at barbeques but here I alone and lonely, just me and my dog. I think I will need invite God in for company. :)

I live in the USA (not born here though) and I think I may have missed the memo about the pool and BBQ thing! :D

Sounds like a good plan to me, and a nice one. Perhaps if the weather is kind you can take the dog for a gentle stroll, return and watch reruns of your favourite shows. Enjoy the public holiday. If it's any consolation, my DB works every public holiday and I am inevitably alone with the pets. :hug:

At least we have each other. I like to know you are out there somewhere in cyberspace. :grouphug:

You will be in good company.
