We had friends over for dinner the night before and it was SOOOOOO fun. Yesterday I woke up and still felt pretty good. So I did a little extra yesterday (took on a simple sewing project and finished and made dinner!!!) and I think that's what got me to sit back a little.

Oh, Lyme! You will not get the better of me! It is SO important for us who have these illnesses to really "listen" to our bodies. It WILL tell you when you're overdoing it and if you don't listen to it, you will pay for it generally very soon after. So I'm going to "listen" because I still have the rest of the week ahead of me and a whole OTHER week after that to feel "good" before I get on the meds again.
Thanking God so much for the healing we are seeing taking place. Even if it is very small and hard to see at times.
It's so easy for us women (especially wives and mothers) to feel like we have to be super women. We overdo it way too often even without Lyme getting into the mix. I can only imagine how easy it is for you to overdo it when you're feeling just a little better than normal!
ReplyDeleteGod has used this pregnancy to make me realize that my hubby and son don't need everything to be perfect, they just need me to be there to love them. I've had many days where I haven't been able to do much more than give a few hugs and kisses, and not once have I heard any complaints. I know it's not Lyme, but it's as close as I can come to "understanding" what you're going through. Now get some rest! :)
So true, Ora!!!
