Hello, @ray666! And hello to Debbie and John and all that are contributing to this thread and to all who may be reading and commiserating. I sure empathize and truly understand what you are sharing, and would add how isolating it can be when we have to resort to finding a place of quiet away from movement and noise. It feels like being punished -- like adding insult to injury.

I really liked the webinar that John made available. My faith in God and the way He encourages me through the exchanges contributed by this PN community on Connect are gifts I receive with much gratitude. The silver lining is definitely the support and friendship of all of you.
My word of advice tonight is "Don't overdo!" I say this coming off of two weeks of doctor, haircut, dog grooming, etc. appointments that I allowed to be made back-to-back. Just going to all of these put me over the top. We are all physically compromised and need to treat ourselves gently. That means emotionally, too 💕
Peace to you all,
Barb

Good morning!

I scribbled these words in my commonplace a few years ago. They're from Virginia Woolf's "To the Lighthouse" (one of my favorite novels). Woolf is speaking of the young artist, Lily Briscoe:

"For now she need not think about anybody. She could be herself, by herself. And that was what now she often felt the need of. … "

I know how Lily felt.

Let's all have the best possible day today!

Cheers!
