I don’t read blogs — but I will read yours.
Hello All. I’m icing my head and listening to John Mayer’s Gravity, which is always a sign that I’m holding on to hope with both hands. It’s a real wrestling-the-angel moment over here folks, with no apparent end in sight. Why? Ten days of migraine, that’s why. Ten days of canceled dates, and parenting through pain, and (uh-hem) not a lot of shugar, if you know what I mean. (Just telling it like it is folks. Chronic pain SUCKS!)
Thankfully I get these little moments of relief where I can dash off a microblog or make notes for a longer piece or writing, or you know, take a shower or something dumb like that.
This is making me nuts because my deamon is downloading writing ideas to me on an every-five-minute basis. I am holding him by the tail and fretting a little. Leonie says, “Don’t worry Possum, they will be there when you need them. And I’m trying Leonie, I really am, just to trust in abundance and to not worry about lack.
In the meantime let me make a confession. I don’t really read blogs. Shocking, I know, and tragically unfair. I don’t really read much at all anymore because of my head, and the eye strain, and the ache. Which is completely awful because words are my absolutely favorite thing. I’m totally dependent on audible.com, which makes me worry that my intellect is slipping because it’s a bit of a dust-up trying to find audio books of quality. So far I’ve dredged up a few good ones and my brain feels pretty well fed. (Phew!) And thankfully some of you podcast and some of you vlog, and there’s always dear old TED and TAL to keep my brain engaged.
But my point is, if you blog, and you know I’ll love you (or that I already do) you really must Twitter or Facebook for me. If you tweet your new posts, or get them up on FB, I will read you. I have the most organized TweetDeck and FB lists in the world, and I follow my readers, soulsisters, and family(ish) folks faithfully. Your’s will be the blogs I manage to gaze at, and retweet, and love-link to. And that’s good for the giant pool of wisdom, right? So good for us all.
So please follow me, and I’ll follow you and together we’ll make it thru this crazy little journey called life.
All my Magpie love,
Rachelle

Yes, that’s exactly what I like about Twitter – finding new people through a more random web of collections than the regular blog round.
I’m really sorry to hear what a horrible, horrible time you’re having. Hugs.
Hmm… I’ll see what I can do about making semi-private Facebook notes. I’m not ready for most my real-life acquaintances to read my blog yet. :) I do hope you get a respite from this migraine soon!
Bethany,
You are so on my radar! I think we should have a standard IM date…like every monday at 9 or something. I love having a soulsister expat “near” by!
Hi I had the same type of migraines until I went on Calcium channel blocker Clan Sr. and Ammitryptaline (anti depressant that works for migraines) virtually stopped the head aches. I had been going to hospital every other week until I started this treatment. A husband wife team of neurologist, wife had had migraines so very in tune to issues! It was sure helpful for me!
I have tried to follow you but your updates are locked. :(

and wanted to tell you about someone very special, an intuitive healer – i had a session with her today and she is one of the most powerful healers i’ve experienced. holy dinger.

Hi Lianne,
You should be able to send a follow request, which I of course will accept. I just lock ‘em to avoid the spam monster. :-) Let me know if you have any problems. Cheers.
I’m sorry to read that you’ve been suffering so much. I understand what it’s like to be young and to suffer with severe chronic pain. It ain’t fun. I hope you are past this bout of migraines…
