Welcome, lovely to have you drop by, please grab your choice of a cuppa & a treat of deliciousness as you linger in a time of sweet reflection…
Childhood stories...
The Princess, my daughters had this endearing name for me between themselves from childhood after they had heard the story of the Princess & the pea.
As I have always had skin & muscle sensitivity.
Where I literally could feel any tiny lump through a mattress, long before I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.
Fibromyalgia, has interestingly been nicknamed, The Princess & the Pea condition!
Fibromyalgia flares amplify the tenderness & sensitivity of muscle & skin to the point that even wearing my softest clothes is painful.
Diversional Therapy
So diverting my focus off the pain to the blessings.
I’m grateful for the following;
An amazing sweet relationship with the Creator of the universe & His Son Jesus…
“Casting all my concerns upon Him, for He cares for me…”
1Peter 5:7
A warm home & bed, as it is freezing outside.
For my all time favorite hot cuppa this morning which is lovely & comforting.
A husband who is loving, supportive & such a blessing.

Jennifer, it is always refreshing to stop by for a cuppa with you. I’m sorry you’ve been hit with a virus. I hope you are getting rest and feeling better soon. I’ve been fighting something and am finally, after a couple of weeks, able to get back to some of my regular activities so I understand the need to stop. Seeing your title reminded me that my oldest daughter wrote a play about the princess and the pea story and she and her three sisters acted it out. I think we even recorded it. That was years ago. Such a fun memory you’ve brought to my mind. Blessings to you!

I didn’t know it was called the princess and the pea condition. But is is sure fitting for those of us with FMS.
I too try to divert my thoughts away from the symptoms Intentionally seeking the Lord in the everyday. Praying for his healing touch for you my friend.
