words of comfort to me

 

Today I went to the library and picked up some books to keep my mind busy. I had checked out Anne Rice's Out of Egypt. I am not usually a Anne Rice fan but I thought I would give the book a try. I also rented a couple of movies to watch. One of them was the Spiderwick chronicles.  I am going to relax tonight and read and watch a movie.

I have to take my car to get inspected tonight. I just hope that it passed. All I need right now is the car to fail inspections. I am just trying to keep myself calm. I took a walk today at the preserve down the street with my dog. I was able to get some peace and quiet and it helped alot.

I went to the councilor today. She suggested to  the psychiatrist that he prescribe a sleeping medicine for me to help me sleep. She said that it might help me to handle things better. I really like her.  I feel stable enough to call the nursing home tomorrow to do some volunteer work. I really think that I need that. I love helping others. I would really enjoy reading to them and

Is God concerned about our pain?

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those who are crushed in spirit. The righteous face many troubles, but the Lord rescues them from each and every one.

Psalm 34:18-19  just talking to them.

I think sleep deprivation can definitely affect how you deal with things throughout the day. I hope this will help you get some good rest, which will give you strength!

Hugs,

Sorry i am way behind with alerts and this being the most recent is the first to get replied to, even though its kinds like doing things backwards...... sounds like me .

I am sorry to hear about the sleep deprivation....i know the feeling i am averaging about 4 hours a night and thats not all in one go  so i sympathise with you. I hope that they can give you some help.

Sweet, sweet picture

I cant wait to see the Spiderwick Chronicles, my grandson and granddaughter were lucky enough to go to the  premier of it, so guess i will have to wait a while till it comes out on dvd as i suffer from agoraphobia and cannot get to the cinema to see it.
hoping that you get the car sorted out
hugs Jayne

I know when I was in the midst of my depression and couldn't sleep the sleeping pills definitely helped. It sounds like your taking things in stride hon. (Hugs)Indigo
