OK here it is. A challenge and a chance to get outside the box. Let's see if we can get this thread over 100 posts!!!!!!

If you need a hug....say it.

If you are here......say it.

If you are just watching........say it.

If you need to talk or have a question.........do it.

If you feel bad, good, sad, mad, blessed, happy,etc......I think you got it.

I'll start.

I haven't checked in for a while...glad to see this thread was on the first page!

I barely slept at all last night. I need to learn that just because I have a brief period with less pain while my meds are kicking in, doesn't mean I should use that time to move mountains...or in this case, firewood!

My neck, right shoulder and arm hurt so bad that I couldn't sleep with pain and sleep meds! Work is going to be quite a challenge this morning.

Hugs to all...

I had to go to page three to find this thread! It used to never leave the first page because it was the daily check in for everyone. I know a lot of you weren't around when David created this, but he never missed a newcomer and even alerted us when they arrived!

I really miss him and the kindness he showed to me when I joined. Because it's painful to sit at a desk, I can't keep up, anymore. Makes me feel like an outsider.

I manage to read most of what's going on...unless the paragraphs are too long. My heart goes out to all of you.

Hugs...
Cherry

I'm so glad I happened to look out the window just in time to see a brilliant, red sunset. I don't have much of a skyline living in the village, but the color was just as pretty.

I'm hoping that means a better day tomorrow...

feeling a bit nervous. Went to see my PCP this morning for my back pain. he has decided to send me to a 'back' doctor. I googled the doctor and his specialty is neurological surgery.

I really need some hug today. My body and my heart are breaking.

cherrychanga 02/20/2013

I've had a string of rough days. I had to break down and cancel an easy guy's haircut that I was going to do this afternoon. I went to PT and she said everything was inflamed.

I need to stop pushing myself to do as much as possible when I have an hour or two of a little relief. Not sure how I'm going to remember that plan, though. I keep repeating it...

Extra hug for Heather...xoxo
