I have been doing a lot of reminiscing lately. I wonder why that happens. Is it boredom with the Present? Maybe it has to do with chronic illness and wishing things were more like they used to be.
I thought I had been handling my chronic illness fairly well. As well as could be expected, I suppose. Then came my husband's diagnosis...Ach, now what? What will the future bring?
Most likely I am simply playing ostrich and have closed my eyes tight since burying my head in a colossal heap of s---!
I actually have no desire to go back and do anything over again. Besides, knowing me, I would repeat the same triumphs and mistakes and wear myself out in the effort.
This life of mine has had its moments. Hopefully this is just a temporary faze and like a good player my memories are just checking in before they pass on by.
Besides, I have to make more memories, so when I get really old I will have months of reminicing to do before I accept the final pass.
