It’s been a busy time, this healing.
Have you ever had a major illness/accident, and it’s taken up all your energies, physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual, to overcome?
Then, when you’re at your lowest ebb, you catch a cold, or a paper cut gets infected, or you stub your little toe.
Or you suddenly experience menstrual cramps that you’d forgotten how bad they could be because you haven’t had a period for eighteen months and have no tampons or pads in the house because you never wanted to see one ever again … and it’s the middle of the night and you live on an island in the middle of nowhere … and your voice squeaks through at least three octaves because the swelling from your thyroid cancer surgery is still pressing on your vocal cords … and sneezing hurts … and the hottest of summer days have finally arrived and you hate the heat you came to Canada for the snow for goodness sake … and the family at the end of your road are having a family reunion and there are parties down by the lake and BBQ’s everywhere … and you have no appetite because you now have a bladder infection … and your cat bit you for no reason except that she’s very old and crabby …
July 2013 is a month that I am truly glad to see the rear end of as it heads out across the lake and disappears over the horizon, never to be heard of again.
Bring on August!

*hugs* Hope things turn around for you soon! Hard to put a good face on things when all the little crap is making the big crap feel even bigger. 😦

Thanks for the hugs 😀 It did kinda take my mind off the big crap for a while, but then the ‘whole crappy-ness of everything’ came crashing down on me like a ton of bricks. Doing much better now!
