I now realize that I'm not superwoman, and I cannot do it all, so I've learned to be content with less.

I totally enjoyed reading your post....Hello Kathy,<br /><br />I totally enjoyed reading your post...you love to talk as much as I do..hehe :0) I can soooooo relate to how you once were and how things have drastically changed.<br /><br />I was always on the neurotic side of *everything in it's place* when I was much younger...I live with chronic pain from bone spurs in both of my heels..so far nothing has helped and I've exhausted all paths to find a solution. So I've learned to live with the pain but it has pulled down my energy level to an all time low..very frustrating but I know that I'm blessed beyond measure. I finally found the love of my life, we have a lovely mountain home and I get to create everyday to my heart's content...but I do struggle with the low energy and pain and that's a constant mind game of reaffirming that I CAN get this done!! What ever it may be at the moment..<br /><br />So thank you for sharing your life's journey..I do relate to the path that your health has taken. Thank you for sharing that with me.<br /><br />And thanks so much for visiting me! I'm always so happy to see the sweet comments. I truly am a cyber chick..hehe...it's been a blessing in my life to have so many lovely ladies to talk to since I can't *run the roads* the way I once could. :0) I truly am a homebody and dearly love it!<br /><br />All of your Christmas decor is just lovely!<br /><br />Scatter Bliss...<br />StephanieStephanie Suzanne Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17121430170088480348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5482188852407179908.post-42433850084346983772009-12-19T19:31:55.546-05:002009-12-19T19:31:55.546-05:00Hi Kathy

Still like everything in it's place but don't do the crazy things I use to. Ask Carolyn. AT 8 mos. pregnant and 2 in the morning I'm still cutting mirror tiles to get a room completed. Not anymore. I enjoy my time so much more in so many ways. <br />I guess wisdom does come with age.<br />Your home looks beautiful.<br />Merry Christmas.A Hint of Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350273064901061247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5482188852407179908.post-26798316132897432742009-12-19T09:45:57.595-05:002009-12-19T09:45:57.595-05:00Oh, and Kathy, I forgot to mention how lovely your...Oh, and Kathy, I forgot to mention how lovely your home is, along with your sweet spirit.

I too, have had times of being fixated on other things that I thought were important, when the Lord is Whom I should have fixed my thoughts. <br /><br />I'm so sorry about your illness. The Lord is using you through it and I pray He will keep your strength up and perhaps heal you soon. Thank you for giving me some things to think about in my own life. May God richly bless you.
