It has been quite some time since I last posted and that mostly has to do with my health being in a very bad down cycle. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome tends to run in cycles and this has been the worst one since I first succumbed to the illness over twenty years ago. This was surprising because I’d thought I’d gotten good at handling the illness and had established a new bottom floor in the cycles.
But much like the large amounts of rain we’ve gotten this summer, it hasn’t shown any sign of letting up. Locally, we are on a pace to break the seasonal rain totals set in 2007 when flooding devastated the area. At least the last couple of days have been sunny, if humid, and the forecast only has a chance of rain tomorrow night.
Due to wearing myself out doing things on two days this past week, I ended up not getting out to church again. I look forward to Sunday more than any other day of the week and this is aggravating. Oh well, at least it looks like I’ll be getting out with the missionaries again later this week.
This downturn in my health has been so extended that I had to ask to be released from my calling as Ward Mission Leader. I still insist it is the best calling a man can have as a Latter-day Saint and didn’t want to give it up. But the Holy Ghost made it clear it needed to be thus and so at the end of June I was released. Still a ward missionary though and that’s a relief.
So I keep hoping my health and other circumstances will improve. My intentions are to post here more often and will probably do more movie reviews just to keep me motivated.
And at some point post about the cat who walked in the cat door and won’t leave.
