Dear Nonnie, opening your blog page, my heart leaps with joy and peace and a smile on my face! In my experience, just in being with our listlessness or lethargy we are fulfilling our purpose - when we find our way back from the pull of the pain and those feelings, we always do so with a cleaned mirror - but the secret lies in accepting the low days as well as the high days. Peace to you on this holy eve - here it is already the 31st.

Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o
