Ugh. Normally I would read in bed if he was working the night shift and that often helps. But what I found really great is my yoga ...which meditation is incorporated into as well. I concentrate on my breathing and for me it's a mantra of Inhale all the Goodthings ( I also think of that bible verse) and Exhale all the Negativity. It does work because my breathing regulates, which seems to induce sleep quicker. Funny that! The yoga routine is only 15 minutes long so it's really handy.

It's my dream to retire closer to the water one day too. We really need a bigger house for the 5 of us, but since we are already in our mid 40s, we aren't willing to up the mortgage cost.

I learned the hard way on an Extreme Trampoline visit with my kids... Do NOT jump mama! That was about 2 years ago and I have found that my daily yoga has strengthened it very much. But I still would never attempt to do too many jumping jacks in a row, and I cannot even imagine what menopause might bring. It's very frustrating, especially during the cold season because I have to remember to cross my legs when I ACHOO!

I always appreciate your openness. I agree that it's so important to share these stories so others learn that they are not shameful. I myself experience problems already which worries me given I'm still very young. Apparently stress incontinence is actually very common for CF patients because of the amount of pressure the pelvic floor experiences with all the coughing. Perhaps it's a good idea to go ahead and start talking about it with my doctors.PinkChicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05138683939008012334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966747504559676498.post-32154508857198899232016-11-15T12:31:20.961-05:002016-11-15T12:31:20.961-05:00True!

Sadly, I don't have any good tips because when I started talking to my mom about the issue - how a cluttered living space leads to cluttered thoughts and stress, she did agree and I thought "well, that was easy." <br />And then she showed up at my house with 2 boxes of stuff. Now I have to purge! <br />Glad to hear you mom is otherwise doing okay -- I am sure there must be some kind helper/organization that understands the hoarding situation.
