  for those that new part of my story.

  I moved.   I am now in an apt.   I cant believe it.

  THis would not be a big deal if I was well.... so hence I write it here.

   I did the impossible, with a team of help 

   we all did the best we could,  I did not do a good job downsizing

    so now I have to find someone to help me get rid of a bunch of stuff

   juicer is imp

  of course.

   other things got to go.

   lyme sucks.

   I am still alive, and hopeful that I can get well.

   I like things neat,  this place is a disaster, I want it to be done already

   so I can focus on me, healing.

    I have to be patient,  this will get done

    and I will heal, really heal.

   

   I am resting, drinking lots of water

   more lab work next week.  I pray I never have to see the inside of a hotel room for a very long time, unless it is somewhere really neat.

  praying missing puzzle pieces come together.  I am so writing a book about all of this.

   love , hugs, gratitude to those who support me

   this long journey

   thank u,  thank u for your prayers,  thank u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  prayers right back for you!

Hi Wellbeautiful,

I am so glad to hear you are getting settled!

Just take the organzing a little bit at a time, and before you know it, everything will be just right.

Happy Housewarming!

I have been thinking of you, I know how it feels when you're so sick and everything around you seems a mess too. It makes it difficult to focus on healing, I tried to always have a small area in my house that was more peaceful and when that wasn't possible I just would try to sleep until I had more energy to straighten things out.

When I moved 3 years ago I did not realize all the effects lyme could have. I just could not unpack finally after being so hard on myself I asked my mother to help she did so very reluctantly. I wracked my brain to figure out what was wrong with me? How had I lost all motivation to do things?  In the the past they were once so easy for me.

I hope this makes sense my brain problems have returned.

It will get better, I promise...

Hello, Wellbeautiful,

I have been following your story. It must be such a relief to have finally found your resting spot. I am sure it has taken a lot of stress off your body and mind. My energy is down the tubes but when I have a bit of relief I try to do the obvious cleaning and organizing. I will worry about things when I feel better.

We sure do have a lot to say and do when we get better.

Some really good advice being given here, Well beautiful!!!


I'm so very happy to know that you are now in your apt!!! YEA!!


Woo hoo!!! Yippie!!! We can have a virtual happy dance together!


Now it's your time to relax!!! So please do and get some of that

much needed rest, please!


Cleaning and organizing can wait and be done only when you

are up to it. Just get the boxes that you need to get into closest

to where you need them, then just get what you have to have

out of them as you need it.


It's much more important for you to rest before you have your

next drs appt and get your treatments started!!!

so it doesn't look as bad

Good for you!!! If you get tired of looking at that sheet, find a

prettier one to look at and put it over the boxes until you are up

to going through one. When that time comes, be sure to only do

one box a day - that way you won't wear yourself out too bad!

Gentle hugs!! I'm so glad that we are here for you! :-)

The sheet is a great idea! and changing the sheet for a new look is funny! You have a customizable table! Perhaps an unusually proportioned one - a trend setter! 

When you do come accross something you want to get rid of there are thrift shops that pick up - perhaps create one box for the old pink shoe laces and the margarine tubs and the romance novels you're done with (how is Lance Darknight by the way?) to be a donation box.

 Also Freecycle lets people post things to give away. Nicer goodies can be sold through classifieds - out here we have the Recycler, Green Sheet, and Pennysaver.

Only if you have the real desire to deal with it at that time - all at your leisure. (But, have a friend over when meeting someone, and go to the lobby, not in your home.) There is no time line for your sorting - you get to do what you can, when you can and that's GOOD!

If you find something pretty when you do check a box, remember the first place you display it can be transitional so go ahead, pull out things that make you smile when you can.

I hope you will love your new place. Be well. yeah

So good to hear from you WellBeautiful and glad you're moved in!!! I love the sheet idea. Not sure how many closets you have but I put boxes in my closets that I don't need right now.

Not sure if CraigsList is out by you but that's how I've sold things. Agreed with the folks here, don't meet them at your house.

Happy Housewarming!!!! Now its time to relax and heal!
