Today is Day One

Hello Bloggers,
This is the first day I've ever been on an official 'blog'...so
I'm just typing in some words to get the hang of it all. I so
appreciate Patty's website and her blogs and that has motivated me to
sign on. I like the fact that shes actually had CFS though I know
she would not want this experience, but at least she can talk from
her own trials and successes.
For me, I've focused on diet alot and can see I need to keep
that part active. I've used alkaline strips under the tongue for some
7 yrs. off and on. It does make a difference. I'm also encouraged to
read that this was and is an important part of her program.
I hope to gain or maintain some focus here on my general
life style and well being. For the past 3 weeks I've had a sore
throat. It's turned into one where I'm using penicillin. It's kept
me 'down' for over a week. It's sort of a 'major cold' now with head
stuffed up and all that. My biggest challenge is to be in
good spirits in spite of 'all this'...these are the times it's difficult
for me because I live on my own...and staying positive...I like the
affirmations and positive ways listed. I already feel better just
reading through the post of how to take care of ourselves..
so greetings...to other members here...
