Under the weather - Literally & figuratively...
I've had a sinus infection since mid December, a few days ago with the cold snap -I snapped. I couldn't take it any longer & called my Dr. The good thing about living with chronic pain is you get use to pain & learn to live with it! There are days I hardly notice, but then there are days I just want to stay in bed, tell that to the dogs. The 10th was especially a bad day for numerous reasons & I was 'teary' (emotionally and physically drained) all day, I finally called an asked for medicine.
I do not take medicine unless I'm really not feeling well and this went on for too long. I did try all sorts of things I saw online but nothing seemed to work, luckily it was only one side so I could still breath easily. Anyhow, today I feel a tiny bit better so It's all about comfort today - comfort food and comfort activities.
I found a CD with The 10 Commandments & Ben Hur - we already watched The 10 commandments - visually re mastered, I enjoyed it immensely. Today it's Ben Hur and a homemade pot of chicken noodle soup! I'm also painting a bear - a special bear, I'll sketch while watching Ben and paint later today, I've not painted in a few, a definite indication of not feeling good & then that is depressing... it's a slippery slope, I'm excited to paint today. The painting has been created in my mind as I kay in bed for a few days & I love it - lol A twirling art with a very important message in the middle winter!
Under the weather - with snow blanketing everything - it's beautiful.. here it comes! When the snow sits on every branch I'm amazed with the beauty of it all as well as how peaceful it all becomes. Yesterday the power went out and the silence was powerful, you think it's quiet -until the power goes out... BUT with all that's happening in the world lately & suggestions of a major blackout', yes I am relieved when it turns on. The wood stove is terrific! I can still heat & eat.
Amen.
Created to create - I realize - even when sick in bed - I'm still painting in my mind - further paintings, never stop.
Never give up... With God I (we) can do anything.
