Recalibrating Everything - a micro business and personal update
This post was surprisingly difficult to write. It took me a total of 3 hours going back and forth. I hope it makes sense...
I slept in this morning and sat down at my computer about an hour later than I have recently and for a good reason too.
Health Issues
I've been struggling for most of February. I've been a surprisingly good sport about it, but my husband finally sat down and said this is not working (in regards to my health). He's right you know. He always sees straight through me. I guess that's what a decade together does to your relationship.
My husband could tell that I was showing signs of my body being stressed, I have a cough I can't seem to get rid of right and I have a condition that means I get tiny sores all over my face, chest and back when my body is stressed. Well, I have some always, they just explode whenever my system is burdened.
I'm doing a lot of things this year to improve my health. The doctors say it can't be done, that I just have to live with it. I, however, serve a mighty God, who can heal the lame and make the blind see. I'm on a daily regiment of different herbs and lacto acids, traditional foods as well as kombucha and prayer. It would be much appreciated if you would pray for me as well.
Recalibrating
Coming to the realisation of or rather accepting the current state of my health we've decided to recalibrate all I do. I've experienced setbacks in my thesis writing the entire first month. Nothing I can't recover from, but enough to make most people feel a little hopeless at times.
For the next little while, I will sleep longer in the mornings. At least until I beat this enormous fatigue. I'm also going to be doing less work on Pinterest and on setting up my ministry. After all, I can't pour from an empty cup.
Last night and this morning, I set up my Tailwind queue in such a way that I've got it fully scheduled through April. For the next two months, I don't have to touch it at all if I don't want to. Hopefully, that will clear up some mental space. I've felt a lot of urgency and have-to with it for the last 2 weeks since my rate dropped and it's drained all the fun out of it.
I realise that it won't always be fun. I know what perseverance takes and have had many opportunities to practise it. Right now, my health is just so much more important than making pennies on Pinterest.
Unsure of plans
I'm big on plans. I'm an INTJ and the very way this personality is captured on 16personalities says it all:

I'm not going to make a plan for the foreseeable future though. Or maybe I should say, my plan for the foreseeable future is to work on my thesis and relax. I plan to read some good books, spend more time in the Word, cuddle more with my husband and laugh more. I'm also going to take a course I've already committed to on money mindset from a Christian perspective.
Thus, I have no idea what you should expect from me over the next month or two. I'll keep doing Your Daily Verse for now because I love them. Other than that I might post a lot of personal posts or you may not hear from me at all.

I would find another doctor! I had to research my own condition so that I know pretty much what I can and can't do, and which supplements help. It just shows the deep ignorance of allopaths when faced with bio-physical issues.
Thank you.
I've already tried several and a lot of alternative ones as well. I've had the condition since birth but it exploded after I got glandular fever at 14 or 15 years-old. It took me a solid year to 'recover', although I've never been fully back to the same since.
Sorry to hear it.
have you watched this Dr tent lecture:
The tests near the end may be useful, no cures but to find precisely which supplements will attenuate the condition.
Courage! And thank you for the test, I came out to be a ENTJ (Commander)!
Thank you Bobby :) It is fun to learn more. Most of what the test said about my personality was spot on.
