Starting Over
I wish I could say I've started over and am living the life I'm suppose to live. But not yet. I went to someone -a Doctor/Healer tonight. My friend has pretty much insisted that I go, she feels that I'm stuck in the past. She is right in a lot of ways but we all heal in our own time. That was one bit of wisdom he gave me tonight. He also said it sounds like I have a bit of PTSD going on. He said it sounded like I went through a lot of trauma with my divorce and all the things that happened before, during and after. He has some classes that would help, he also feels that I could use some massage and yoga to help me work on the body pain I have going on. He feels that you are a sum of mind, body and spirit and you must treat all parts in order to heal. I have to say this sounds reasonable to me. I know when I was getting regular massages and therapy I did feel better. The big if is money, I don't make enough to pay all my bills, if I didn't have savings I don't know what I would do. I try to live simply, the biggest thing I do for me is use my tax refund to go to Mexico once a year, not sure how much longer I can do this. I have savings, do I use them to enjoy life now or save some for retirement--decisions decisions. Things will ease a bit when my car is paid for-still 3 + years away. My house is 14 years away. I will pay my lawn tractor off in May 2014. Those are my bills. I pay my credit cards off monthly. My big expense this year has been medical. 5000.00+ with medicines and surgery this year. That is what has tightened up my budget. At least I can see it. Next year will be better, hopefully I will get a raise in Feb. Just some random thoughts in my brain tonight. Last night was a major night of not being able to sleep. I went to bed at 11:15 and was awake until after 2- then woke up again around 3:20 and did that off and on until 6:50am when my alarm blared. I am really tired but having a hard time giving up and going to bed. Tomorrow I will celebrate with family and friends the occasion of my birth on the 20th of August. It should be good.
