I started working when I was 16 years old. My first job was pumping gas. (boy does that date me...lol) So when I had to quit working, I felt useless. When you've always held a job, and suddenly find you can't even dress yourself without help, you need to feel useful in some way.

That's when I decided to record my thoughts, my activities, my life. To let people with FM/CFS/ME know what they were feeling was normal for someone with FM/CFS/ME. I'd like to think something positive has come out of being sick for the last 29 years.

Each year is linked above. I hope you enjoy your visit, and if you've got some extra time I'd love to have you sign my guestbook!
