We went to see ‘The Batman’ tonight and it was very good.  I wanted to write ‘surprisingly’ or ‘actually’ before good but neither are necessary.  There was no indication that it wouldn’t be good and the trailers were cleverly deceptive.  The mood was noir and it was incredibly well cast, beautifully shot and had an intriguing story.  We both enjoyed it immensely.

My headache is receding and medicine is tomorrow.  We’ve decided to stay home next week instead of going to Bellefonte and while it’s a relief I also feel sad that John isn’t going to get to do as much fishing as I know he wants to do in the new streams.

I have some things I’m working on and I’m excited about them.  As I get into them I’m sure I’ll write about them here.  But for now, life feels okay at home and I am going to sleep without searing pain.  So I am grateful for that.

There are days when I truly wish that I could look as awful as I feel.  Because then maybe people would pay attention and have some grace.

I work hard to appear as healthy as possible – hydration and skincare and exercise (and a smallish shopping addiction haha).  But today – feeling utterly horrible and wanting to just completely die – I wished that people could understand.  And I knew – I always know – that they can’t.  Healthy people cannot understand the Herculean effort that goes into existing in the world while constantly struggling with pain.  It’s just not possible.  Imagination can only go so far.

It’s another early night and I am vowing (once again) to start blogging earlier in the day.  I feel like the sky is crashing down.  I am so, so tired.  I am in such pain.

It sucks.

Every month I choose a quote for our letter board.  I wanted something that was about having faith, keeping faith, the strength of faith.  The above quote was the first one that popped up when I googled.  I felt like it fit this month.
