Hello From Chicago!

Well, here we are again, another week gone. Hopefully, you have been enjoying life as much as you can. That is what it’s all about.

I was just thinking earlier today about what I said last week; I was thinking how I was going to be looking at the changing weather more positively. It has been mostly colder and rainy here, and, once again, CFS has been worse. However, I have made more of an effort to look at the changing trees and enjoy them. It’s so easy to get caught up in the pain of it all and curl up in a little ball. I decided, no. I was not going to do that. God reminded me of the beauty of His creation when He provided me with the opportunity to head up north with my friend, and that is the memory I am holding on to during the dreary weather we have been having. I have beautiful pictures I can look at whenever I start feeling isolated, and knowing I have somewhere to go on occasion is a beacon of hope. I will go there again.

As for winter, well, it will be cold, bone chilling pain for me, but I am going to try and bear in mind it is only for three months. I have made it though Chicago winters before, and I will again. I have been a homeowner since 1991 and I know exactly what to do. I have a huge church family and good neighbors who are always willing to lend a hand, so why worry? I also have God; so do you. Lean on Him as well as the people He has put in our lives; He put them there for a reason.

So, I hope you all once again have a wonderful week and are able to see the beauty of Gods’ creation in the coming weather. He gave it to us to enjoy so enjoy it! Let’s all make good memories and not remember the pain!

I will, “talk” to you next week!
Love & Hugs,
Beckie
