Thursday Thoughts…

Getting old is for the birds, as they say…

Beyond a headache and the sniffles, I have come to the determination that the change of season is kicking my rear end!

For some reason I am feeling the transition this year, rather painfully.

I’ve no fever and absolutely no other viral symptoms… I just hurt from the top of my head to the tips of my toes, and both IBS and Fibro are warring with one another, as well!

Yes, I am whining!

Yes I am in need of some feelsorryformyselferry!

My poor husband has had to take on the roll of being the full time listener of my whinery!

Since I can’t take anything for the pain or swelling that Fibro, my roomie, wants me to… it’s a hard knock life for me! I think that must be why my other roomie, IBS, is throwing a major hissy fit. She hates it whenever something upsets the balance of her world.

I suppose, if I chose to do so… I could let things send me round the bend, what with all the symptoms and no solution. But… never fear, because there is one solution that always helps when things are in a bad way. I call it shutting down, powering off, or if you want a real world example… skipping class!

Everyone remembers skipping class, right? No? Calling out sick, accidentally not answering the phone, netflixing it, dishes will wait… ing it!

At this very moment, I am writing a note to you and then plan on spending the day playing computer games in my pajamas! I did the exact same thing yesterday, as well. I’m not cooking, not cleaning, not walking and not doing a single thing that I normally do each day… don’t care!

That’s the joy of living like a hobbit… no one notices when you do things out of the ordinary, when you skip work or class, or when you drop off the radar. I’ve no one to expect anything out of me, other than my husband… and right now, it’s him that I’m gaming with, so that’s a win win in my book.

I think that the worse is over for now, what with fall settling in to cool us off and water the earth for the darker months ahead. The most difficult time of the year for me is early spring and early fall… when the shift occurs, as I refer to it.

Once done, I should be right as rain, so hang in there my friends, as I’ve a pretty decent fall and winter line up of fun stuff!

For now… I’m loading my weapons and heading for the wastelands… Horde night is coming!

  1. I didn’t have the option to call out sick when I was in the Army unless I was really sick—like hospital sick. But skipping class? I did that all the time in high school and college. There are days when I feel the same way, so I’m sending you a virtual hug of solidarity.
