Here it is Saturday now and although it is is still hot in Perth the fans and aircon (if needed) will keep me cool. I am really feeling 'better' already and once down there is only one other way to go and that is up. It may be a stuggle but I know I will make it.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-91934970876905205532013-03-16T10:23:59.746+08:002013-03-16T10:23:59.746+08:00Thanks Buttons.

It is now autumn in Australia but the heat persists here in Perth with 33C(91F)today and tomorrow and so on. Yes I know how much I have to be thankful for and with support that I find here I know the future will begin to shine again soon.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-22577722625401877882013-03-16T10:21:02.671+08:002013-03-16T10:21:02.671+08:00Oh my dear EC what would I do without my wonderful...Oh my dear EC what would I do without my wonderful blogging friends. You have more problems than I do and yet here you are giving your support as usual. Thank you so much for lifting me up as you always do. What can I do now other than begin to look forward again and outward and not inward.

I woke this morning (Saturday) and lay in a bed for a few minutes just relaxing and breathing deeply. That does help so much. I will also follow your instructions and enjoy the scene outdoors and that big blue sky. xMimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-44003356630186601812013-03-15T19:49:16.308+08:002013-03-15T19:49:16.308+08:00You are entitled to feel the way you feel for heav...You are entitled to feel the way you feel for heavens sake. You are also entitled to write about how you feel. Here's hoping that in a day or two you will start to feel a little better about things....in the meantime....celebrate the fact that you are still on 'the right side of the grass'. Crank up the tunes, open the curtains, turn on the lights, do a little 'hand jive'....tomorrow will be a better day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2704657209559170713.post-86097990455872915372013-03-15T19:08:26.072+08:002013-03-15T19:08:26.072+08:00Oh we all have days like that the Spring is very c...Oh we all have days like that the Spring is very close now and that sun will make things look different in your eyes. Give yourself time to feel sorry for yourself BUT do know there is a lot to be thankful for and you are not anyone's burden and I am sure they will tell you that very quickly.

Never mind all the other people in the world - you are feeling fragile, and are entitled. Rest up until you feel better.<br />And this is a lovely HONEST post - so should be retained.

You do have it, you are feeling fragile and it's okay to be a little self indulgent until this passes and you feel less fragile and more like your old coping self. You've had a rough few weeks with the heat and your medical tests and these all contribute to feeling less than 100%. Take some time out, sit and gaze out your window, watch the clouds, the wind in the trees, take a nap. Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.com
