Dear Diary,
Well, I have had a good week. I have only had pain several of the nights at bedtime where my hipjoint meets my leg and it locked up on me a couple of times during the night when I tried to turn over while sleeping.
I have started walking to a video called "Walk away the pounds" by Leslie Sansone. It has made me feel a little better and I really have to make myself ...

Another night of broken sleep. (high wind storms for 2 nights now.) Things banging around. I went to work for 6:30am-3pm. Tired and easily aggitated. One of our residents (crazy ole pain in the a**) got all demending on me for grapes upon opening. Then she went to the dining supervisor for them instead....calling me "stubborn." ME! OMG...I bend over backwards for these people. she...1 Recommendation2 Comments -

Why can't family understand that when you have chronic illnesses and chronic pain that you can't work! I have one of those famlies that think your a piece of shit if you don't have some kind of job and are bringing in some money from it. It doesn't matter that i am going to college right now and getting Finacial aid to help. It doesn't matter that even though I wouldn't be...1 Recommendation2 Comments -

The sun is rushing through the sky to drop behind the misty hills,
Cool mornings, silent fields and maples wear their fiery veils,
And like the virgin land before us , It seems the world is standing still.
The fall descends in all its might as nature finally exhales.
Regrets will swirl like golden leaves in gusts of my tormented mind.
Capricious chid has ruled my fate - ...1 Recommendation

Arrhythmias Information
Cardiac arrhythmia is a group of conditions in which the muscle contraction of the heart is irregular or is faster or slower than normal. Cardiac dysrhythmia is technically more correct, as arrhythmia would imply that there is "no rhythm," but this term is not used frequently.
Some arrhythmias are life-threatening medical emergencies that can cause cardiac arrest and sudden death. Others cause aggravating symptoms, such as an awareness of a different heart beat, or palpitation, which can be annoying. Some are quite benign and normal. Sinus arrhythmia is the mild acceleration followed by slowing of the normal rhythm that occurs with breathing. In adults the normal heart rate ranges from 60 beats per minute to 100 beats per minute. The normal heart beat is controlled by a small area in the upper chamber of the heart called the sinus node. The sinus node contains specialized cells that have spontaneous electrical activity that starts each normal heart beat.
