Haiku My Heart: Family Christmas Gathering



My home is small in size,
but it radiated BIG love today.
Hugs were shared  
as each member of my family
traipsed in, their arms full of gifts,
and big grins on their faces.
I love it when they are all here
and the rooms "shrink" 
to a coziness that
I miss when there are only my cats and me.








blessed is my life
            with a family who shares
           their love and presence 







linking lovingly

I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. 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
