SO Okay ... So as some of you know my Daughter is coming for a visit tomorrow ( yay). I should have been working on getting her room ready all week long , well my Fibro has been horrid at a 9 all week so I have put it off thinking( stupid I know) " I'll just slam it done on Sunday"...

Well today is Sunday , the entire house needs cleaned deep cleaned , probably not deep cleaned but my OCD mind is funny about that.

This is so going flare my pain up to a 9, probably 10 ! But I will get it done, I will enjoy every minute with my daughter the short few days she will be here. Then I will crash and burn once she leaves .... Yes this is the pattern of my Fibro life.

End rant/

Sorry you're not feeling well.

Is it possible for your daughter to come visit without you having to do so much to get things ready?

Surely she understands about your condition and would pitch in to do whatever needs to be done once she gets there.

How about this... I've had major important homework that needs to be done by tomorrow and I've been neglecting it all weekend of course like usual... You get the house cleaned, I'll do my homework.... READY GO


(Not but seriously, once it's done I know I'll feel 10x better than I do right now... it's just hard to get the ball rolling) And if your pain acts up then take a little break! I know i'll be taking mucho study breaks with the amount of crap I have to memorize, lol. Also don't pressure yourself to get it "deep cleaned". But If you get in that mode and feel like deep cleaning then by all means get it girl! haha...
Thanks for this!

I understand you want/need to clean but what's more important is time with ur daughter. I had to learn to let some things go. I hope the visit goes well.

Amanda is here and we have been laughing and well plain silliness for hours ! I hurt , I do not care.

She is like me in the Insomnia department so I pulled the "Mom card" and made her go lay down for a while before we go out for dinner.

Ahhhh It is good knowing she is on the other side of the house and not over 700 miles away.

I am just enjoying every moment

Good times Christina, good times

I admire that about you, screw the cost I'm going to LIVE my life.
Dammit but you're a force to be reckoned with, and a sight to behold!

..Christina...

I expect you are enjoying the company of your daughter right now....

and I am really worried how you will be after she goes...

I don't like it at all when you are in pain...I hate it...

so I'm kinda scared about your big rant and I'm tryin' to get in there before you do so I don't freak out!
