Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Hi Everyone!! I just had to share the incredible day I had today! It might just give everyone some hope!! I woke up at around 11 this morning after SLEEPING all night!!! I rolled out of bed and there was NO PAIN... NO STIFFNESS!! I turned around and looked back to make sure I wasn't just laying there dreaming but I was really up and not hurting!! After a trip to the little girls room I went to check the obituaries to make sure I wasn't dead and just didn't know it yet. Nope, I'm alive and I'm awake and I AM NOT HURTING!!! Hubby gets up and is as surprised as I am and offers to take me out to eat. We dress and head to town. The sun is shining, the weather is beautiful and I'm still not hurting. We come back home and I decide to piddle in the garden. Hubby has made me a raised garden so I can work it while sitting down but I felt so good today that I didn't sit at all. After turning all the dirt and getting it ready to plant I came in the house and got out my little planter trays and set them up then planted all my tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and various other veggies so when it gets warm I'll have all my plants ready for the garden. Once I was done with that I tackled my kitchen. I cleaned out three cabinets, cleaned out the fridge, and swept the floor. After that was done I started supper. At this point it is almost 7 pm and I'm still NOT HURTING!!! While supper was cooking hubby had the stereo on and we danced together for about 30 minutes and just enjoyed the fact that I was having a good day. Tomorrow I might pay but it was worth it because right now I feel like I conquered the monster for at least a day! It's 12:15 am and I'm still not hurting, a little sore from my activities today but not hurting from the monster!! I love you all and hope that each and everyone of you will wake up tomorrow and have a day like mine!!! Yours, Angelia Wife to Kerry Mom to Woodlawn, TN **************Ideas to please picky eaters.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Angelia, I am so happy for you. In RI we aren't even thinking of planting until May and most things not until the end. Often in April we still get snow. I hope not this year as it has been a struggle for us weather wise although not that much snow, just a few bigbursts. I hope to have some raised beds put in this year. JudyMer ---- rosesbyangel@... wrote: > Hi Everyone!! > > I just had to share the incredible day I had today!

Yes, you may pay big-time, but remembering today, and looking forward to another day when the pain is less, may well get you through the bad days! Congratulations on making some serious hay while the sun shone! Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Congrats on your excellent day, Angelia. It is wonderful when they occur. Jeanne in WI I woke up at around 11 this morning after SLEEPING all night!!! I rolled out of bed and there was NO PAIN... NO STIFFNESS!! I turned around and looked back to make sure I wasn't just laying there dreaming but I was really up and not hurting!! After a trip to the little girls room I went to check the obituaries to make sure I wasn't dead and just didn't know it yet. Nope, I'm alive and I'm awake and I AM NOT HURTING!!!

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Dear Angelia, What is your secret?? That is wonderful news. Our spring flowers are beginning to come up and that always makes me feel better. We always plant something new on Easter.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Thanks so much for sharing your story! I have fewer and fewer good days like that, but I do still have them and it is good to share! Connie from Alaska Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 I wish I had a secret but I don't think there is one Today wasn't as bad as I expected. I was a little stiff but it was workable. It was 75 today so I got out in the sun and just enjoyed. I also grilled our dinner and just spent time with hubby and son I never know what tomorrow is going to bring but I take each day as it comes Hope everyone has a happy day!
