Wobbling Along

 

Undergoing new chemical treatments for intractable pain isn’t an easy process. As my neurologist says, “You can’t make omelets without breaking some eggs.”
Though I am receiving relief from the constant body-wide pain of Fibromyalgia, I am unable to move very well. I feel as though my body is a bag of wet cement. It shifts slowly as I try to move, but weighs me down and negates the ability to move quickly or accurately. It is dangerous when walking past the top of the steep staircase when you have a wobble in your step.

I haven’t felt confident enough to drive while on these meds, and when I do get out I am quickly exhausted and grateful to get back home. Being home hasn’t hindered my skin care project until now.

At the point where I have product to sell my body needs down time, and I am lost just before Christmas with no way to sell my products or even to catalog my products in a price list and information list form with photographs.

My hope is that those who have shown interest in my skin care project will still be interested in learning about better skin care after the holidays.

This batch of first recipes will be significantly cut down to a hand full of products, and my glass jars will change when The Kitchen Witch Creations skin care line hits shelves in January.
