We have had very changeable weather, and keeping fingers crossed no real bad storms where we live - yet - the lakes are mostly frozen over and daughter's partner has been "ice fishing" but standing on ice all day is not pleasant; years ago we had an "ice/fishing" shack but all that fun stuff has been replaced with illness, ageing.... at least we have some photos and memories. Yes Sundance will have snow on ground all winter, sometimes til April and driving is dangerous especially with unexpected "whiteouts".
Every night I wonder what the night will be like and how i will feel in the morning. Feel like I am slipping back and am having increase in pain and other issues but dont have dr. and dont want to go to see a dr and have more tests and more pills: sort of made a decision to take what comes but am wondering how much longer I can keep going mentally and physically. Main reason I would like to sleep longer is that there would be less hours in the day to get through, not feeling well and I would say, steadily worsening.... know I am not alone when I read others' issues but even as typing "ibs" bad for last hour so much pain, internal cramps and ssuch I am starting to moan.... the future is looking more bleak every day. If its not this its another body part.... off I go and have my own little pity party....bye for now, J.

Robin...am very happy for you that you have found a way to obtain peaceful sleep.. I was on a horse once when a child on holidays, for about 15 minutes and was scared.. first and last time as before coming to Canada lived in London UK so no horses around!....can imagine you on yours....sounds like a wonderful life.
