I have a close family member with Lyme. And chronic Lyme, in my opinion, is a real thing. My family member suffers quite a bit and I hope someday she can get it figured out and heal. It’s a real struggle.

I love how artistic your pages are. I back plan a lot too. I also don't like spaces left open (I've been known to cover a list sticker with a big deco sticker). I wouldn't have been able to leave that space on the left open. In fact, I was relieved when you had to switch the stickers and filled it up. I don't know about you but brain fog is the worst. I was on a medication last year that caused it really badly and messed up my life for quite a while. Now I'm on different meds that are working rather well. Now I check to see if any new meds have brain fog as a side effect. If they do, I discuss alternatives. I wish you the best of luck with working through your health issues. I'm in a similar position and the struggle is real.

Hi, Mary Ellen 😊 Thanks for sharing your beautiful spreads with us! I lost my daughter in 2019 and since then have had many health issues. I was finally diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I know the symptoms of Lyme disease and fibromyalgia are similar so I wanted to throw that out there. In my research, it seems that fibromyalgia can be caused by stress or trauma which changes the way our brains process pain. I know that you have been through the same traumatic event, losing a child, as I have and so fibromyalgia may be something to keep in mind. I hope that’s not the case but wanted to share the info. Best wishes 😊

This couldn’t be timelier. I’ve got like 2+ weeks of blank spreads waiting for me. With kid issues and work travel it is so easy to overlook. I just tell myself I can use any of these spreads any old time. I was getting so stressed about skipping a Fall week - heaven forbid. And then I told myself I can do a Fall layout in March if I want!

As a hair stylist, color is always tricky because everyone's hair takes color differently. Sometimes it take a few different different formulas to get it honed in perfectly. If you liked the cut and her personality, I would stick with her and let her know what you liked and didn't like and she will be able to teak it from there.

I have it personally, I however am not a doctor. Do not quote me, I believe there was a questionnaire and some blood work to see if I had it.

So it couldn’t hurt to inquire…?
