Well it's been "interesting" today to say the least. Our group has grown to 10 now. Used to be about 6, sometimes 7 if my child came along. Today there was only 3 or us. For various reasons. Yet the three of us have perhaps the most need to be there for each other.
One is not doing well in different areas, health for starters. The other one has a husband that had a stroke about two years ago now and it looks like he's not going to live much longer. It was quiet with so many absent, a peaceful gathering. We don't wish to leave out anyone out, yet want to have this kind of peace again.
One of them is extremely loud, obnoxious and is only there because she's one of the original group when it was led by a professional. This person is more than loud. Her best friend is following in her footsteps and trys to out talk her and I come home with a headache. As do the other two there today. I can't ask anyone of the three to disallow anyone as this was started only because of red tape keeping my child out back in 2000. So I have to put up with it, or not be there.
As for myself, it's been a wonderful week. Although I feel restless, feel like the hounds are at my heels. Spring is arriving, bit by bit, and I want to move on now. My knee is strong, I can't believe how strong, and except for my spine, I feel much younger physically.
Tomorrow I'll prepare my favourite meal, clean my home, try to watch a little television, and read. And say prayers. Many prayers for many people.
Monday I have a lecture to attend, followed by a cooking session and then home to rest. I have to schedule the Ryizotomies I need done, then can initate the swimming program. I start swimming on Tuesday, twice a week.
Once a month is how often I'll be reading to the children at the library, it's not much yet have to figure out how to change my whole life now. Next month we'll see how it's going with my teeth pulled, whether I can tackle a part-time job too.
So that's all now.

So glad you are in that group helping others... and them helping you. No man/woman is an island... we need each other.
Great to hear you are feeling better and younger... it's amazing what a little sunshine can do.. we are all like flowers in the spring.. coming back to life from a dormant winter.
Hope you enjoy your stint at the library... I'm sure the children will love you!
Have a great, restful day!
