My mother was adamant about keeping house. Too bad I didn't inherit those genes ... not a disgusting slob, but some days the fibromyalgia just won't let me give the place a good cleaning. A lot of them lately ... maybe tomorrow.
Need to clean, want to clean - don't have the energy.
The futon sags in the middle, spine broken by the weight of my laziness and by the books piled on the cushion, spilling over onto the floor. New dust meets old gathering on the furniture; tired of looking at the four walls closing in around me, I switch off the lamp - what happens in the room stays in the room, as long as I don't have to witness it. Pat myself on the back and say, "At least the dishes are washed and put away." Progress comes in small steps.
Karla, is it not very strange that FIBROMYALGIA was recognized by the medical association AFTER men (probably doctors as well) got it, because, before that, fibromyalgia was a woman's-hysterical-hang-up.
If anyone criticises you, send they to me, I have a thick broom handle that's not been broken in yet.

Fibromyalgia is a painful desease that most don't have a clue about. My daughter-in-law's sister has it. I've seen the pain aas she attempts to focus to get through a day of work. I have no idea how she does it. I have no idea how you do it.
May God give you
His nlessings.

I know how that feels too... LOL,it's incredible that all of reviewers are writing the same thing! I have fibro too, although it's "quiet" at the moment. I have learned not to care about what I cannot do. Other people's judgement used to worry me fifteen years ago... but now, who cares? Nobody's perfect anyway; we are only human.
I am sorry you are in so much pain; but when you have a chronic illness, it's often hard to get into your work, not get as much done as you would really like. Excellent write; hope you feel better soon! I wish nothing but relief from your ongoing pain!
A scenario we all face Karla well depicted, even those who don't have chronic pain can relate to this;-) Hope your tomorrow is better, I know the feeling!;-)
'Better Without You'is a compelling narrative that explores the complexities of an affair, hidden secrets, and abuse. It also highlights a daughter's heartfelt journey as she cares for her mother who is battling dementia.

Portland, Oregon is known as the City of Roses. Of course that’s an odd name for a city whose mere mention conjures images of driving winds and torrential ra
