Well here it is the end of June and I realise it has been six months since I posted here, how easy it is to get busy with life! These past six months have been rough health wise, I have had to put my studies on hold as I was not coping, I have found this really frustrating especially after doing so well last year. Anyway apparently one of the complications of living with RSD can be high blood pressure, it has taken the doctors six months to get this under control all the time I'm feeling like crap. Now after further tests they tell me my thyroid is failing and I will need to take medication for that as well, as you can imagine my mood has been quite low and I have found it a struggle getting through the day but hey life is for living and there is light at the end of the tunnel!
Next week I turn 48 and I have to say that getting closer to the big 50 and having health issues (not to mention the impact of the current recession) really makes you reflect on your life and where you are heading. I have come to realise that I desire a simpler life with less stress and more fun! Michelle and I have always had a desire to have a piece of land in the country where we could achieve a simple self-sufficient life style. I believe the time is here for us to act on this desire and make the move, we are not sure how this is going to happen yet but God willing the doors will open for us.
Life is for living and its moving on folks! God bless


I'd take in a simple life anytime....farming, growing your own organic food...I'm living in the city and I've taken the first steps to living the stress free life...first off, I hardly watch the news, I pause several times a day to calm myself and I've taken into a vegetarian lifestyle which if I'm not too relaxed enough would blog about it...there are so many health benefits if one would only keep an open mind about it and junk the myths!
elaineAll's gonna go well, a change of mindset would be the start....take care
