Neuropathy doesn't stop me from...!!!, and in 2011 i will...
 

Hello everybody
I was searching on the forum about HOBBIES and came an old thread "If I didn't have neuropathy I would......."
I read many replies...
some really funny which gave me a good laugh,
some that put me down, to realise that many of us want our old lives back...

and i thought about to write some activities that i want to put in practice in the new year and share with yours. Im really tired to stay house-bound :paperbag: living a miserable life! So many times i heard to "focus in what i can do rather than in what i can't!" so i started to make some changes since October this year, lots still to do and i hope the seeds im planting today will become nice flowers tomorrow.

Neuropathy doesnt stop me from... having a new and happier life where i can accomplish my goals, i just realise that they just must be set according with my abilities and timing.

IN 2011
1-i will take a new course and complete the same :Writting:
2-have a new job that i really enjoy and that dont take all my energy :D
3-be more and more focused,
4-stop boycotting my happiness and well-being
5-exercise!!!!! I really need a light routine that i can keep on
6-want to try pilates (hope to have more pain free days for that one)
7-gain more knowlegde about my health condition and of course share here with you all! :grouphug:

now im looking forward to read yours
and December 2011 i will read this again, and hopefully i will achieve most of those 6 above

HAPPY 2011 FOR EVERYONE!!!!
FULL OF ACHIEVEMENTS, LOVE, HAPPINESS AND PROSPERITY!!!
Thank you for all your support here this 2010.
lots of love

Carla,

I've sent for a Tai Chi DVD for beginners. That's probably as low impact as one can get, and from what I understand is really beneficial exercise.

Good luck with an exercise program - it can only help.

In 2010 I will.....
 

Begin an exercise program that will work for my body.

Get better care and pain management for myself.

Focus more on what I have rather than what I don't.

Continue to be happy that I was at least able to have my son before neuropathy.

And one thing I am doing for sure, is taking a planned trip to England for 15 days with my son and husband. It will be a challange, but I'm not cancelling that trip!!!!

Humm.............
 

I'm not quite as pumped up as you guys are at the moment.......I'll have to get back to you on this (I still have a few weeks.......lol!)

Continue my walking to keep the wieght off!

Continue my quest for the healthiest I can be!

Continue to offer my experiences for others to relate to.

Keep my fingers crossed that all of us can do everything we want to do.

win the lottery

I will start a micro-business selling my jewelry. And I will once again have some sort of identity...

I have a microbusiness....now I have a dozen eggs per day to pitch at cars going by, or fast moving bovines. Organic, no less!

Seriously, yes, do the microbusiness (May I not recommend poultry? Lest you be known as the 'crazy egg lady'. I do manage to sell a few dozen, and, eat the rest.)

I wholeheartedly recommend doing something that one can identify with!


Living with this condition for over a decade, I can attest to being more inspired some years than others. My inspiration usually ends up being my husband's 'honey do' list....he is game tho.

With it being New Year's soon, I think it a good time for me to make a resolution I will break....give me a few days....I will come up with something.

I will also come up with some resolution I can break, Maybe force myself to have some better days

Last year and the year before that, I said that I would try to feel better. It is not happening... As much as I try, I am not feeling better. In fact, it is slowly getting worse. The little things are.

Being an organic egg lady is good Cyclelops! Indeed, I do know about inspiration coming in ebbs and flows... I think I am having a "flow" year. ;)
