Angelia, welcome from Georgia (where it's snowing and of course, the

stores are packed because there's never ever gonna be another loaf of

bread or gallon of milk).

I didn't get the dx until this past Thursday, but have suspected it for

a time now....lol....and when I look back and see all I used to be able

to do, it could make me cry so instead, I am focusing on what I can

do " today " , even if that is only to run a load of clothes or empty the

dishwasher! Because an accomplishment is an accomplishment, no matter

how small and I really think that when we get down and depressed (and

don't let me fool you, I have depression/anxiety but it doesn't have

me, most days), it's when we've looked back.

I will 2nd what Debra said. You have a sunny disposition that just

oozes thru the screen! Welcome to the family cuz......glad the door was

left opened and unlocked!
