Each Day Already is a Challenge
A Texas Sunrise
 
A friend, William Taylor, took this picture. He visits Surfside Beach with his dogs almost every morning, watching the sun rise while the dogs prance about at the water's edge.
This is only about ten miles from where I lived in Lake Jackson, Texas. Sadly, I only visited this beach about four times in the six years I lived nearby.
Each day is a challenge. A challenge to get by without thinking about the fibromyalgia pains. A challenge to stay awake when chronic fatigure wants to take over. And a challenge to navigate through fibro fog.
I haven't been writing as much as in the past. For years, I wrote at least 500 words a day. Now, I'm lucky if I write 500 words in month. Sigh.
For more information about what my day (or life) is all about with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pains, IBS, depression and everything else thrown in, check this out:

A few days ago when I did a virus scan, I discovered a trojan on my computer. Now it just isn't acting right. I noticed that while I was online about 9:30 this morning and again at 7 tonight the computer was really sluggish. Maybe I watch too many crime shows, but it "felt" like someone else was using my computer too.
I started searching to see what files, if any, were altered today. Oddly enough, there was a lot of activity in updating/altering files at about 9:38 this morning and again at 7:14 tonight. One of the places where there was activity was on Outlook Express, which I haven't even used in 3 years.
I guess I'll be calling my handy-dandy computer repair geek on Monday to see what he can find.
Too bad the one computer we ordered wasn't even set up as able to connect a monitor and neither had any back-up CD's with them. My son is going to buy one from us and the other - the one that has no monitor connection - is going back.
Someday I'll get a new or reconditioned computer. Meanwhile, as frustrated as I get sometimes with my Gateway, I have had it since 1999 and it has been really reliable until the last year or so. So I can't really be that upset.
I do have lifetime phone support with Gateway. Maybe I should check with them tonight. Maybe I will.
Oh yeah. In case you're wondering, I'm using hubby's computer. He and his daughter are bowling. They often go bowling on the weeks that she's here. It's something they've both enjoyed, although today she said "it's kinda getting boring." Of course, she thinks lots of things are boring.
I don't remember thinking so many things were boring when I was ten. I thought the world was an awesome place...
Still do! Although waaaaaaaaaay different than the dark ages of my youth. And sometimes scary even.
