A Sunday to Remember...













We had a special time after church and the lunch 

with our now off-to-college Munchkin who has

been in our lives in a special way since my Husband and I

were married... 

My Husband thought we should pick out another orchid for our home,

so we did.

It's a mercy to have such beauty in one's home.

May God have mercy on us.

A Resource


I wanted to remember that today I found this website that had a lot of articles about neurodivergency, autism and ADHD that I found really affirming and helpful.  It's Canadian and can be found HERE.

Saturday beauty

I made it to church and had a walk. 

Tired now.  Please pray that my cold doesn't settle near my ears / that I don't get a sinus infection.

storm and illness

we had a storm tonight! 

Looked green/blue a color of a storm.

Books.

I figured out that the decongestant and Advil called in the sinus was most likely impacting my insomnia and feeling of anxiety/ nervousness/restlessness. So I'm doing without.  Still have a cold.  Trying to do my best to manage it. Lots of rest. 

May God have mercy on us all.

Up in the middle of the night with sinus pain.  

Trying to sleep more now.

Transfiguration and illness

Liturgy was beautiful.  

I definitely have a head cold and sinus pain.

Please pray that I don't get a sinus infection because I am allergic to antibiotics.

My friend Tim died 39 years ago today.

May God have mercy on us 🙏

Still Struggling, Still Here

 



I only got a few hours sleep.

I managed to get the house clean more though.

When I have a messy house, my mind is messy 

and my ADHD spaciness blows up. 

I still have more to clean, but I need to try to rest too.

Tomorrow is my friend's 40th year annivesary of his repose,

when I was ten years old.

I really want to be in church for this.

May God have mercy on us.

Slept until 4 AM

 







God is slowly restoring me to a better sleep situation again.
When God allows me to have such insomnia a lot of mercy 
is poured into me as well.
***
My Husbnad likes bread toasted and then the meat and cheese
melted in the microwave :)
***
I am going to need a lot of rest to recover from this past bout of
insomnia.  I am glad I at least understand this better.

May God have mercy on us.

weary


I am doing what I can to rest.  My throat was scratchy tonight 😥.  Please pray that I don't get sick and especially that I can rest. 🩷🕯️🙏🌷🫖
