Maybe I am finally starting to learn about taking care of myself. Yesterday was physically and emotionally exhausting. See my "FIRE" thread in social for details. Today I spent six hours driving to pick up a friend's cat that I am fostering. Don't know about you folks, but long drives set off my fibro and CFS. I'm exhausted and in pain. I'm going to practice self care and take a personal day from work tomorrow.

So glad I took a personal day today. I feel like I got hit by a bus. EVERYTHING hurts. Last night I was thinking of all the things I could get done today. I suspect sprawling on the couch and reading is all I'm going to get done.

Goodness @lizardlady!
No wonder your pain levels are off the chain ... I am glad that the pfire didn't get too pfar gone before help arrived. I am also glad that you took a day off to do a little self-care ... It's important to have some down time now & again. |

Today is a rough day. Am still in pain and exhausted from events last week. Between work, stuff in my personal life, pandemic and war in Ukraine I am overwhelmed. I don't do this often because I don't want to wallow in self-pity, but I've given myself permission to feel like crap today. I find that by acknowledging I'm overwhelmed at times, and putting a time limit on the self-pity, it helps me cope.

I made myself climb off the pity pot last night. Given everything going on I think it's legitimate that I'm down. Not going to wallow in it, but not going to deny it either.
Physically I still hurt like hades. Left hip and knee hurt like bloody blue blazes. Am spending the day sitting on a hotpad while I do paperwork. |

I'm sorry you're in so much pain @lizardlady ...
That hotpad sounds wonderful! The three blossoms on my orchid have pfolded up, but two more buds are about to bloom. Betty The Orchid really outdid herself this time! I hope your pain eases on up sooner than later ... Pain Sucks! |

((( @lizardlady ))) ...
I don't know what the weather is like where you are, but if it's bouncing all over the place temperature wise, that certainly doesn't help. Of course, if you're in a pflare, that's no good either! Whichever one it is, I hope you get some relief sooner than later, and I don't mind hearing you whine about it either! If we keep it to ourselves, it just seems to make it that much more painful & lonely! |

Finally! Pain level is down to its usual background noise level.

Cold front headed this way. Pain levels climbing as a result. Fibro and arthritis are competing to see which can hurt more.
