OUT of the pit!


I knew I knew I was better when my two little dogs woke me from my nap wrestling on my head...and I laughed. (c:

There is no question my body is responding to the meds. and resting. You guys helped me again to find me. This was one of the worst times of my life.

The numbness is going away, anxiety is pretty much gone. Not nauseated. Depression really makes you sick!

I still have some hard things to face. But am going to treat myself tenderly and not be here when my two very old pigs are put down. Going to protect my heart.
Hoping to deliver Boo and Dickens in the morn.

I do my best to think about how humans are the priority. I am a human. I needed to let go and let God.That he had a plan for each one of my animal family. I like this feeling of being responsible for just my 6 dogs and one cat.

Only have about 3 weeks left here. Then yesterday the dang well pump went funky on me. Great. So that bit  a huge part of my budget. sigh. But right now we have what we need. I have faith that HP will make it all work out. He always does.

It's hard for me to even think about how sick I was! You all knew the perfect things to say. To wake up to your shares made me hang on to the earth. It connected me to something.

I don't think I could have stayed in my home to heal if I didn't have you guys to be there.

Well we have some serious cold, weather going to hit Oregon. I put a huge bale of hay in the pigs room.

Would have been neat to be up in the cabin in the snow. I bet it is so pretty! I look fw to those days of a nice warm fire and all that beauty. AND if something breaks, its not my problem!!!!!

My home is up in the Cascade mountains.

AND my "long" underwear and gloves are up at the cabin too!! geez....sooooo we all will be in our feather bed....(c:

Love, debilyn

Yeah (((Deb))) those are my favorite laughs. I am so glad you are having a good day. Having one good day somehow makes it easier for me to get through the bad ones knowing a good one will come back around again. You are taking care of yourself and doing what you have to do with everything else. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other until you get to the right place to relax, stretch out and enjoy the ... well sunshine if you got it ... otherwise the snow and ice if you don't biggrin.gif

((((Deb))) So happy to hear you are feeling better! :) There was no doubt in my mind you would get through this. You will have so many good days ahead of you. Here's to new beginnings! :)

I love mountains - so beautiful. I live in the prairies so when I get to see mountains - they take my breath away. I love the smell of the fresh mountain air. Breath it in for me;)

Yay!  Thanks for sharing such happy news!

Yup, every time something goes wrong around here, I always get a fleeting pang of nostalgia for the days when I was a tenant and wasn't responsible for fixing it.

Can we have a virtual housewarming party when you move into the new abode?

Glad you are feeling better. Sounds like some strong higher powers living in those animals and in nature too. Made me feel spiritual just reading about it.

Great Glory Debber...you're back on solid ground instead of hanging out over the
cliff.  Happy for you.  Hope and pray things get easier also.   ((((hugs))))

Deb, that is OUTSTANDING - I was so longing to see this post!

I am grateful that you posted so honestly about being IN the pit in the first place. I have been in the pit the last couple of weeks, too, only I haven't been honest about it. It does me good to see that you're feeling better. It makes me feel better too. ;)
