Have you ever felt...

Some days are better than others in life; don’t you all think that to be true?
I hear you all saying: sure they are!
But I feel that everyone’s idea of what is perfection is perception, right?
Many may feel a day where nothing goes wrong with a family gathering, no fights no burnt offerings, I mean nothing burnt on the grill sillies!
A game on the tube that your team wins big!
Or one at the stadium when the weather is not too hot too dry or too wet and you have had enough liquid refreshment but not too much to still know what’s going on! LOL
An outfit that makes you look taller and slimmer, a hairdo that is suitable and gets rave reviews.
A boy or girl who finally notices you whatever that case might be, friends or customers returning all calls/texts/emails when you expect them to.
As I said before it all boils down to perception.

But to some quiet is perfection, relaxing nothingness…
I suppose when life is way out of hand, control wise and continually stressful that the extreme opposite would sound like heaven on earth.
Let’s take the other end of the spectrum and think about that for a while… people who have nothing to worry over no interaction to stimulate their senses and would you think that they would be looking for some excitement therefore an adventure?
But how would they know what they were missing if they never ever had that?
Sort of like what came first the chicken or the egg, or if a tree falls in a forest with no one there does it make a sound?
Something to think about, huh?
Nah that would cause stress and stress is not comfortable for any of us anytime or anyway… although there are people who believe in good stress, like an upcoming wedding, baby being born or graduation or…you get my drift…
Those are all considered good stressors.

Bad stressors are of course losing a job, divorce or death in the family, sickness and pain are too.
Do any of us have choices of what we want to have?
Boy wouldn’t that be great just like a Chinese food menu, one from column ‘A’ and two from column ‘B’ or which ever you really want!
Life would be so simple, huh?

Any-who, what I have been taking rather the long way to say is that I have not been feeling all that well, nothing new there, sore ribs and numbies (Tobism) in legs and most everywhere, spasms too they have not diminished; the MS I thought would start to show some improvement or lessen exacerbations with the Copaxone since it is going on two months now, and my optic neuritis eye is still no better three weeks after the infusions. I suppose with the technical difficulties that was my wee bit of stressor which seems to trigger all types of ills.
And so when today was fairly quiet with nothing major happening it was somewhat of a good thing! That’s not to say that all my problems went away, but I just didn’t want to put them in the forefront so much, although in reality that is way difficult oh all right I meant technical difficulties seemed to have taken a break for today, yippee!
And that is one less thing to worry about; right folks?


On the other front it appears all threats of storms are out of our realm of worry too!
Today I had the great pleasure to go down memory lane with a few FB friends on that medium today, which is always a great joy to do.
I did even do a short spiel with my turn downs of offers to go here or there…

Dear Facebook friends I am letting you all know for once and for all I am no longer a JET SETTER! And I moved twenty-four years ago to Florida because here is where I wanted to be for work for fun for hurricanes, no not them! But for whatever I so desired, and after all this is one heck of a vacation land and don’t you ever forget it!

On that positive note I will wish you all a very happy good night and to all count those blessings and we will too!

Which way will the war go?
