Christmas shopping and pushing myself further

[Guest guest]

So, yesterday I was so frustrated with my " condition " that I went out Christmas

shopping with my friend. I took the max dose Neurontin, tylenol and Oxycodone

and headed out the door. It was so FUN! Sometimes I forget how much fun life can

be. Honestly, I was in some pain in the first store, bur I hung in there and we

eventually stopped for lunch so I could rest and take a bit more medicine. By

the time I got home my thighs and back were burning and I had to go to bed

early. This morning I still hurt, BUT IT WAS WORTH IT. Really, I need to push

myself more often.

Marry Christmas all and I am very happy you are here!!

I got out myself this week. I found transportation in our county--very small

town. It's only $4 round trip and they come get me at my house. I haven't been

social for so long. Shopkeepers were glad to see me. It was nice to be

remembered.

You need to stop pushing yourself. Do what you can with in reason. You don't

need to end up back in the hospital.

That's wonderful. I remember living in a town with bus service, not a large

town, but it had everything a person could want in stores and the bus even went

out to a mall. There was one winter we had no vehicle and that bus service

allowed us the freedom to get out and about. I remember that winter fondly, my

husband and I became closer.

I'm so glad for you,

(((((((((((Donna)))))))))))) I agree with you about the holiday shopping tiring

you out. I was pooped by this morning. However it was great fun and well worth

the extra pain when I watched the family opening their presents!

hope everyone who celebrates Christmas had a great one. Wishing everyone a

happy holiday season.

Gentle hugs, Tami
