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:

I missed church this morning. I did pick up Derek from work at 6:40 a.m. and was up maybe 30 minutes after that. But I finally crawled back into bed. I sort of remember hubby getting up and getting ready for church. I imagine he left around 10:30 as usual. I didn't wake up until 11:10 a.m. Looks like hubby took some good sermon notes, though, so I should be able to follow along in the sermon series. Sometime this week, I need to catch up on posting sermon notes. Y'all remind me if they don't show up by.....well, how about Thursday?
Had a bit of a confrontation with a newbie the last few days. She has posted something that she found (or received?) at myspace.com. Although the words were nice, the work was not hers and she really cannot share it here. She can send a link to where we can read it. Y'all know that, right? When we post anything here a copyright notice appears at the bottom of our writings saying that it's ours. We can certainly post something that belongs to someone else if we have their written permission to do so - like a relative that will never open an account - but we cannot share works that belong to others, even if we don't know who that is. (anonymous or unknown)
If you ever get confused about the copyright policy here or about copyrights in general, there is a link at the top of the page. See it? It's in a column next to the last on the right, third item down. Under "Our Store" and "Self Publish."
