I feel exhausted. I ache in places where most people don't give a thought to. I am really tired of not feeling well. So here is a little list of the things I miss/have missed because of my illness:

1. My niece, Mel's, wedding in Dallas. I am still not over that one.
2. Helping my parents after some surgery.
3. Time with my PDP girls. One of my greatest joys in life.
4. Jumping in the car to drive to Detroit when my dear friend lost her mother.
5. Thursday morning bible study.
6. Cleaning my house. Ok, I don't really miss it but it needs to be done.
7. Lunch with friends.
8. Almost missed our son's rehearsal dinner.
9. Small group.
10. Feeling normal!
11. Not having people asking how I am doing. While I certainly appreciate it, I feel its been going on so long, everyone is probably becoming numb to the whole thing and tired of viewing me as the "sick one."
12. Various bridal showers and parties.
13. A Caribbean Cruise with very good friends.
14. A brief visit with my good friend in Northern CA.
15. Cooking and eating like a regular person.
16. Being able to sit through a Broadway Play.
17. Helping my husband paint the condo.

Enough whining. I continue to try and focus on the good days but its been a pretty bad two weeks. I'll be more cheery next time! Promise!

p.s. Forgot one of the most important events I missed ; my son's graduation from college! War Eagle!
