Ever feel badly that you don’t feel badly? 

If you’ve been wondering where I’ve for the past year+, well, I’ve been here. I would think about this blog often and think of ways to write about what’s been happening. In fact I have about 20 drafts waiting for me to finish and post. *sigh* So what’s been happening? Nothing much on the LUPUSContinue reading “Ever feel badly that you don’t feel badly? “

Revisit, revise, reset, renew (?)

It has been a long time since I’ve posted to my blog, and it is not for lack of things happening. That is not the case, at all. There has been A LOT going on in the background as it relates to dealing with lupus. As you may know, there is no cure for lupusContinue reading “Revisit, revise, reset, renew (?)”

Why so “meh”? There are no answers today…

Hi. Remember me? Yeah, I’ve been quiet. It’s generally been a “meh” kind of life lately. Why? Let’s see… The holidays were challenging and it was around this time last year that I spoke of my life change.

Invisible Illness Awareness Week

Recently we had Invisible Awareness Week (September 26-October 2) and now we have Invisible Disabilities Awareness Week (October 16-22).

I’m going to refer toContinue reading “Invisible Illness Awareness Week”

I’d still like to share the post I wrote for Thanksgiving (two weeks later), but this is generally the season of giving soContinue reading “Thank you, caregivers!”

Tah-Daaaaah!!! I did a 5K!

I completed my first real 5K last Sunday. I say ‘real’ because it was a timed race! As I’ve written about in my blog, I’ve been doing a lot of walking lately and done some ‘practice’ race walks, so I figured this would be a great way to cap it off. First off: What anContinue reading “Tah-Daaaaah!!! I did a 5K!”

Can a bad thing can be the best thing for your health?

Again, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted here. My emotional energy has been so depleted for the past few months that I could never bring myself to share “doom and gloom” with you. In my last post, I shared a bit about a life change I was going through and trying to figure outContinue reading “Can a bad thing can be the best thing for your health?”
