Willpower just wont do it! Mood
Monday, October 5, 2009 | A Frustrating story

You know when you have one of those dreams and you wake up realising the "good times" are over, and it happens to really be Monday morning? That's where I describe myself to be right now. The RA is biting back after no doubt over-doing it last week. Ahh the price we pay!

 

My sacro-iliac joints are flaring and I just wish my pelvis would snap in two and just get it over and done with - grrrrrr. The hands and wrists don't want to work and that awful feeling of unwellness/fatigue/nausea descended on me like a cloud. Ughh - not necessarily the best of signs! The morning stiffness is pushing the limits also. I'm squeezing every last drop out of the Humira that I can right now - it's helped but I'm like gambling addict. I WANT MORE !!!!!!! If any one knows of a way to triple the effectiveness of Humira, I'd be sure glad to hear from you, lol.

 

I can't open jars or bottles again. Why do they do them up so hard - darn it! My only light-hearted note for the day was the chance to sew some more vegetable seedlings and watching a mum/dad crow show her/his three new young crow-lets just how to have a bath in the birdbath. There was no water left in it of course, by the time they had finished.

 

Life goes on......
