Wow Jade you are an inspiration! Here is a saying that reminds me of you;)

things intermittently, too. Like on the hot days, I do my inside things,

because I cannot stand the heat at all, it makes me feel like I will pass out.

Then on the cooler days, I do the outside things.

Hi Jade and group-

I read often but don't contribute much as typing is very painful. I appreciate

you all so much for sharing your experiences with everyday living & coping

strategies. That is why I wanted to answer Jade's letter. I appreciate so much

that someone else is struggling to complete necessary tasks and that you took

the time to explain it all and how you manage, and write it so well, I may add,

I look forward to reading your contributions. Thank you, this morning I don't

feel so alone.

> I have to share this one. The lady at the garden store said, " Do you need

help out with that? " I gave her a big smile and said, " No, thank you. When I

first started my project I could barely lift my arms. It's amazing that now I

can do it all by myself. " Yay. That brightened my whole year to think that

wow, I did this and I changed my body to where I can do some things. The

changes came because I became stronger. I can lift more weight now, and bend

more than before.
