Enjoying our beautiful fall sunshine today! and just taking life one step at a time....I posted my 100th post on Wednesday and that was exciting and got a new subscriber today! things are looking up I love quotes they are so motivating to me...and this is a particularly good one for me...Thank you for sharing: “…if life is dragging you back with difficulties, be patient. It is getting ready to launch you to greater heights.” Patricias last blog post..The Ants Go Marching 10 by 10

Hi Patricia. I'm sorry that you are ill and that I only just noticed your link this instant. Thanks, BTW. I hope you are on the mend. Don't be too hard on yourself or try to force things. Just relax. Here is a portion of a quote I love... "...if life is dragging you back with difficulties, be patient. It is getting ready to launch you to greater heights." Be gentle with yourself. You'll bounce back bigger and better. Davinas last blog post..25 Words That Connect Us — Frosty Sunrise

Dot, Welcome, I sure did enjoy reading your blog in between coughing, Pneumonia is a very interesting ailment and I am amazed at all the tricks it plays on one's thinking. I believe I have started in recovery mode, but I surely do hate being ill. We will meet up at the Mommy Farm and take the cure! Thank you for your comments - I don't think anyone will catch any germs blogging! Patricias last blog post..The Ants Go Marching 10 by 10

Dr. Cason, I am attempting to do just that - and the weather outside has promoted just sitting moments and looking at the beautiful leaves - I am just amazed at my self-talk, it is so negative. I am amazed at all the wee crises that pop up with each tissue from the box...and I am just an amazingly amount of angry that I went away for self-care and rest and came home so ill....What is this all about? Have book group discussion tonight and the Dr. says I can attend with no chance of infecting anyone...how healing is a good book? What a great prescription. thank you Patricias last blog post..The Ants Go Marching 10 by 10

My first visit also, and I'm so sorry you were that sick. I'm glad you're starting to recover, though. I've had pneumonia twice in my life and it was awful. One of those times, I was pretty sure I would have died if I hadn't forced myself to drag myself to the doctor. But even then, it wasn't bacterial AND viral. Phew! Hope you stay healthy from here on.

This may sound silly..or not. Settle down. In a sweet bed with some clean sheets and pull the covers way up and give yourself permission to just sleep. Give yourself permission to heal and then when you're rested just read. For fun. Dive into a good story. Forget the blog and writing that inspiring perfect post. When your eyes get sleepy again, close them and dream. You owe it to yourself to treat yourself as kindly as you would anyone else. I just finished The Shack and I'm moving on to another good story. It has done wonders for my creativity! Dr. Casons last blog post..One Step Forward Two Steps Back

Mitch, Thank you for making a comment and welcome to this blog. I thank you for responding to my email and hope that things are looking up for you today. I will certainly look up your book reference - colour for part of the healing process just seems a superb idea to work from - like laughter. Getting a good nights healing rest has certainly eroded some of my wall today...good image to focus on..Thank you Patricias last blog post..Look Boss! De Wall! De Wall!

Evelyn, Welcome, welcome. I have been having trouble moderating my site today, but my good techie is back from class and problem resolved. I am feeling better after 6 hours of direct sleep last night with no coughing!....thank you for leaving a comment and I hope you found some thing to read on my blog in your look around? I have been to your site a couple of time from your comments on Blogging without a Blog - Barbara's site but have not left a comment for awhile. You write very well. Thank you for you good information. Hope you will come back and visit again. Patricias last blog post..Look Boss! De Wall! De Wall!

I'm lucky to say that I've rarely been sick, but in the past I have run into the brick wall of depression. Sometimes we just have to let it run its course and wait for a little bit of eroding of the wall before we can break through. Mitchs last blog post..Johnny The Bagger
