I Am ... A Domestic Goddess

This blog is in need of some serious attention. I think I stopped blogging because initially I wanted to write about my EO conversion. But that no longer applies. After attending church for three years without my hubby, I've raised the white flag. We need to be united. From the time we first met, our mutual love for Jesus united us; it should not divide us now.

I write this for myself. I have nothing profound to say, just the happenings of my life in my little corner of the world.

And there have been a few since January. I ended up going full time with a place that offered me a job previously and although I liked the work, my body rebelled working FT hours. I have fibromyalgia and the stress of the job fueled the flare from hell. Pain and crushing fatigue were rather constant. I gave myself two months, hoping things would settle down, but it seemed that every week, some new area was affected ... a ridiculous and unnecessary way to live. So this week, I will work a few hours to help train the newbie and that's it. I'm already looking forward as to how to occupy my time. I'm signed up to do some volunteer work at the local public TV station and am considering fostering retired greyhounds.

Back to full time Domestic Goddess. Even as I write, hubby is putting up a clothesline for me out in the yard. All true DG's hang their clothes to dry, don't they? And cook everything from scratch and make all their toiletries and weave all their cloth to make all their clothes and clean every nook and cranny weekly and clip coupons and put in an organic garden and can the fruit thereof and and and

eat bonbons and watch TV! I can do that!

I kept you in my Bloglines queue wondering if you'd ever come back. So sorry that the FT work caused a flare-up. Enjoy your time at home!

Good to see you here, Deb. I plan on enjoying my time, at least until something part-time opens up again. As He wills ...
