I feel good most of the time, but then when this starts happening again it seriously affects my quality of life. I am trying really hard to maintain my positivity, but when no one has any answers about why I have this problem it's just discouraging. -And no, it's not allergies. It's recurrent viral infection. I don't really get bacterial infections often either, which is strange. My immune system just seems to have one major flaw. In fact, it's the only health problem that I have. It just happens to be a big one. I am a proponent of the power of belief in a lot of areas of life, and I have a good outcome so far with that generally, but not with this. Maybe it's because my attitude becomes instantly crappy as soon as I feel ANOTHER cold coming on.
On a lighter note, I was thinking really hard this week about a jar of lilacs for my table, and had even brought out a pretty table cloth to use as well. I hadn't had the opportunity to go beg my neighbors for any, but then my mother showed up this morning with a big bunch to make me feel better. It worked very well. My mother has an uncanny ability to read my mind -happens all the time. I seem to send her messages -particularly about objects -and she will then proceed to produce the exact thing that was on my mind. It's weird.

Ha. We have a big jar of lilacs on our table as well, right now, although we picked them ourselves from some places in town where it's considered perfectly OK to do so, an out of the way bank employee parking lot and a rarely ever used park that once was the yard of an old lady in town who refused to sell out to people who wanted to put in a casino, selling it to people who would make it into a park instead. I think it's only myself and another good friend of mine who ever gathers them in these places, anyways, and they are so prolific for such a short time that no one seems to mind. She brought a huge bouquet to another friend in the hospital the other day.
Cool the way you and your mom connect in that way.
I've been thinking it might be high time to clear the junk off the table, maybe even put tablecloth on...
Hope you're feeling well soon.
Thank you! My next house will have LOTS of lilacs in the yard for sure. When my new babe is born I think I will plant a lilac tree over our placenta in the front yard here as well. I just look forward to them every year.
