Yesterday's Enablities

Yesterday, I was recovering from a migraine, so I felt unable to do anything.  It's hard to see the blessings somedays, so that is one reason I decided to do this blog. We must count our blessings daily! "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." 1 Thessalonians 5:18 KJV

Two of my "enabilities" for yesterday included fixing dinner for my family and lesson planning. Thankfully, I had a frozen lasagna in the freezer! I was able to complete weekly homeschool schedules for my sons thanks to a wonderful form I found online here: http://moneysavingmom.com/2011/07/free-downloadable-homeschool-planners.html 

Planning ahead can help tremendously on the days when energy resources are running low. I found some great ideas for meal planning at  http://www.menus4moms.com/ .  The Busy Moms Menu looks great!

Have a blessed day!  :)

Explaining Invisible Illnesses to Friends

Invisible Illness Week

 “You don’t LOOK sick!” No, I don’t. But did you know that nearly 1 in 2 people in the USA have an INVISIBLE ILLNESS, such as diabetes, fibromyalgia, lupus, MS, rheumatoid arthritis, autism, bipolar disorder, cancer, heart disease, migraines and many more. I am 1 of the 2. Are you?

9/12-18/11 is Invisible Illness Week. Check out this website: http://InvisibleIllnessWeek.com/ for more information. Care enough to be informed. You never know how much someone is suffering silently.

Getting Started

For the past week, I have felt inspired to begin writing. Blogging seemed like a good place to start! I plan to focus on life as I know it.  Wondering why Enabilities is the name of my blog? Keep reading or check out the "About Me" section. Thanks for stopping by! :)
