RE: Today and update/Sharon

[Guest guest]

I should be going to bed, but instead I keep reading about all my poor

friends who are having a rough time as well. I got about an hour of sleep

last night and feel so sick. It feels like the flu (including fever), but

it's still hard to tell if it is he flu or a flare.

I did go to the health center yesterday to get my teeth cleaned, and I

always wonder what I'll pick up there because they are a sliding scale place

and a lot of young mothers with young children are there. Don't get me

wrong I think it is great they have a sliding scale for these families, but

there is always someone with a cold or the flu, and they tell me the flu is

running rampant even though you've gotten the shot, which I did.

Glad to hear your getting better, tooth wise. I am on couch today, did house

work yesterday, but at least I am not in bed. Only my now forming couch

potatoe body from lack of movement is disturbing me, I only eat the one meal

a day but winter long lack of movement has told my body to take on the

weight I guess, can't blame this on Fibro, middle age, and lack of thyroid

doesn't mix with sitting still so much. What do u do for crafts? I use to go

to my g.friends each fri. when I was still living in Ma. and a bunch of us

sickie's all different, would do crafts, and bring appertizes, snacks, she

always went way out, she loves to cook, but I am not to talented I always

just worked on my crochet, one stitch all I know and all my thick head has

allowed me to, can not follow paper instructions on anything! But all in all

I miss it and it was fun and got mind somewhere else for a few hrs. Hope

your day is light, and as good as can be

much better than last night. Not 100% but definitely better. TG. My fibro is

acting up today. It is raining here and that always causes a flare.

Fatigued, achy and tired, but I can deal with that much better than the

mouth pain I was experiencing. *

again for being there for me. I am so blessed to have so many good friends.

I will make it up to y'all.*
