I just want to say I miss you all and I hope everyone is doing ok. Kiya I miss you and I hope you start feeling better. Liz you are still my idol I didn't see any pictures from Gus I hope she is ok and I hope Jan is ok. Christina i hope you are back home and out of Florida and you are adjusted to being back home. I miss all of you.

Is has been a very stressful emotional summer for my family. A lot more downs then up in fact the only could thing from this summer is that my daughter moved back home and is away from her abusive boyfriend. But trying to get her adjusted to a "normal" life has been hard and challenging.

I am still here and I miss you all. I see a lot of new people so I will have to get to know everyone.

Take care

Hugs

hi, " cake"

I just had to say that, because the idea of calling someone cake braught a smile to my face.

guess I'm a little (a lot?), childish

It has been awhile since I have been on but please know that I am always keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.

I am run down but seriously trying to hang in as I get over this current flare. I was in the hospital for several weeks in September and am still recovering from the hospital and from strep throat. It has been a rough 14 months. Lupus keeps finding ways to beat me down. I am determined to fight back and to kick lupus' ***.

Anyway I hope that are all well or at least as well as you can be. May not be back for a bit due to health but know that I am always thinking of you all.

Gus, where are you? I hope you are okay!

Cakeladie and BlueEyedMama, I hope you feel better soon.

Ragingvortex, I hope you get some relief!

~Christina, thinking of you!

I hope I did not miss anyone. If I did, please forgive me!

Love to All!

I took a shower today and used a diffrent shampoo.

I still felt totally gross afterwards, and it didn't do anything for my mood, but i suppose it was nice to try a diffrent scent.

had to send a few emails this morning to people, but didn't do much else.

feel a little nautious from all the overeating I've been doing, but it means nothing... I continue on regardless

nice to see we're back to the rain and the wetter weather today

apart from hating the sun, october is not the month for warmer weather.

come on darker nights all ready..

Cold today, aches and shakes are bad.
Didn't go to work, and couldn't muster the energy to make food, so Domino's is on the way.

It's a beautiful Fall day!

Sunny, cool, colors popping!

I hope to go for a foliage drive today!
It'll be nice, as I have been cooped up at home, recovering from a bad cold.

I hope everyone has a good day!

Expecting increased pain this evening into tomorrow and the next few days... first real old snap of the season coming tonight... down into the 40s and 50s from the upper 80s. Plus, this is the first cold snap since the fusion of my lumbar spine so not sure how that will react either...

Katydid, I am sorry you are having additional challenges with the weather change.

Liz's pain scale is back just a page or two, post #776.
It's worth seeing!

Welcome to the fibro. thread, katydid!

It's a cold, rainy, windy day here today.
Trying to stay warm/comfortable.
More pain today.

Love to All!

I feel extremely lucky today

yesterday my dinner was off, and overnight, I had a really bad tummy ache

it continued for a lot of this morning too- I'm still amazed how I was able to eat breakfast because of the pain

but now it seems to be subsiding, and I just feel really lucky that it's not worse and that their are no other side affects

just ashame that my overeating is 10 times worse than it was yesterday and I have nothing really going for me today.

mood's okay despite not sleeping again

weather is raining

It's another gorgeous day for colors!
It is cold and windy out though.

I hope everyone is doing well.
I think of the members in this thread often.

Gus, where are you? I miss you!

The scale is in post #776. My pain was somewhere beyond the last picture on the scale today.

I had a first today. I was in so much pain and fibro fog was so bad I left work at noon today. Came home and crashed for awhile before working from home.

I'm so afraid I'm going to crash and burn soon. Between work and the stuff that needs to be done at Mom's house, plus the stuff I need to do at the farm I passed exhausted long ago. In pain every day. It's all going to come crashing down on me soon.
