To-Do List

It’s been a very difficult week with terrible fibromyalgia pain in my back, chest, and ribs as well as serious brain fog. I find I don’t have extra. Extra anything. Hopefully this to-do list will help me through some days.

• Be pleasant.
• Breathe deeply, even though it hurts.
• Eat, although appetite eludes. Make sure there’s some protein.
• Remember I’m not being graded.
• Stop should-ing on myself.
• Smile when something’s good and laugh whenever possible. Boost those endorphins.
• Appreciate the beauty of the trees outside my window and the items so pleasing to me I chose them for my walls.
• Finally, see Desiderata above.

I hope this next week presents something pleasing for you.
