Boy, I can relate on this one. I feel SO LOUSY in the morning that I just want to be left alone until I can get a grip on my pain and my emotions. Fortunately my husband has picked up on this, has my cup of tea ready for me when I get up and leaves me the heck alone. Smart man... :-)

Sure do know what u mean. I wasn't a morning person to begin with and then when the Fibro hit forget about it. I am late every a.m. to work its just ridiculous. As hard as I try the mornings are the worst and yes I can be a real biatch too to my poor husband. Hang in there yeah maybe apologize it might help u feel better.

morning??? whts morning??? I am so not a morning person that I have made the choice t skip morning al together and now plan only to get up once it hits high noon lmao.....

ya my husban tried asking me about finances the other day befor I was truely awake and I bit his head off and had a so emotional day.l... dunno if he learned his lesson or not but I KNpow he was sure sorry he opened his mouth

guess we could tell them bout our pain for days.. and they still dont get it and never will... many morning my other half will want to hug me in the am.. oh my .. no no and double no... I had or have all to do to find some clothes to put on and jump back on my heating pads..

for some reason.. I still dont know.. my pain has increased... and I mean bad... legs and whole body. just awlful.. tramadol and valium barely touch the pain.. my back is screaming right now...

I just went into our bathroom and mopped the floor.. he is only barely working.. and told him this am.. the floor needed a good mopping job.. well.............guess who did it... me... dishes . me..

and Im walking around like a zombie.. I dont get it.. he is on the computer playing the sims 2 game... sigh.. i dont know ladies..

i lay'd in bed here last night til 3or 4am. hell i dunno.. just totally exhausted from no sleep... thinking.. its this it? .. its this going to be like this til i die??? man.. emotions cant grasp it.... crying is a everyday event... life stolen... I havent even been out of the house for almost 2 months... horrible way to live..

and when out spouse's or b/f,, just dont think.. bout helping just out of love.. then it really isnt love is it... if the tables were turned.. i would be nurse ... that is how i am.. but.. its not like that here.. but.. i dont say much.. unless pain is so high I loose it.. then i go on a cleaning rampage.. just out of anger.. then i really pay for it... ..

a big hug to ya hun.. and to all.. :)

I'm not a morning person either. I even beaned my brother in the forehead with a shoe one morning when he poked his head in my room to tell me to get up for work....*grins*

I don't hate mornings...I just like to do my routine at my own pace and don't bug me. I think this is even more important...'cause no matter what we do we generally feel like dog poo...so schedule and routine mean alot.
Unfortunately I cannot agree...I love doing laundry...it smells good, it's clean and warm...maybe I'm nuts.
I get like you when I am pms'ing....then it's everything...and WHY do husbands act like complete morons when they know we are emotional basket cases and feel even worse than normal once a month...HELLO>..where do they think it goes? it happens ONCE A MONTH... what were you talking about again....? lol
(think pms crept up on me....)
by the way do any of you have way worse fm when that time rolls around? lots more pain and stiffness?

I'm allergic to mornings! my family knows not to wake me...unless they want a non-talking crabby, stink-eyed thing to deal with! lol I can get up early but I need 24hr notice to prepare myself...even then they know to beware! lol hugzzz

frankly I would ahve left the bathrom floor AND the dishes hell would have let them rot and let him deal with the aftermath of leaving them....

Then again I apply this method at my house and my husbands idea of cleaning the kitchen is mearly dealing with the dishes. I dont think he knows the meaning of wipeing up the counters and stuff.... and forget ever clenaing the microwave or the fridge... and the stove/oven we may as well have a nucular hollicast to clean them....

I was never a morning person since childhood. Remember many times getting out of bed just in time to hear the bus pull away.. Don't u love it when they try to play 20 questions and you're not sure you even know where your brain is or if you have pants on ?? I work a second shift !! Thank goodness I have that luxury where I work. If a had a sleeply achy nite I know I have until noon to make up for it.

What confuses me more is how many times do they have to pat a porcupine before you learn ???

Mornings are sheer Hell for me.....i hurt, im so fatigued,i can feel weak,i can be really sweaty, like flushing?? its awful,its like my body goes into shock getting itself going?....takes me hrs to get my s...t togethor....hate mornings!!!!!!....arghhhhhh..oh yeah by 4pm im done....hmmmmm..yeah just love FM..NOT!

lmao!! y;all crack me up so bad! and i really like the porcupine analogy! lol! you WOULD think they learn, huh?

well last night we had a "discussion" about WHY i get so mad and tend to go off on him when he says such little poisonous words. basically when a fire is already burning (anger & frustration from pain) saying NON-comforting words (and in some cases speaking at all) is like throwing gasoline on the fire! you're gonna get burned!

so we agreed that: i would go get some one on one anger management (even tho i already did a 13 week class in 07) and he will PRACTICE saying soothing words and work on his attitude. that, and he understands AGAIN that i'm not a morning person so leave me alone.

cross you fingers this works.

I AM a morning person and I love it. I've missed it these past two years of being a night owl, but it's back!

I get the crankiness sometimes - especially when the kitchen that was clean when I went to bed is messed up when I wake up in the morning. While I love it, morning is still a tricky time.

I also love laundry. It's always been my fortress of solitude. If my kids dared breach my sanctuary, I would make them fold socks and underwear. I also like to iron... wha?

But, I like it how I like it and it's ok to expect things to be how I like, eh?

We are allowed.

Oh I can relate!!! When my husband is off work, he wakes me up at 6 or 7am... poke poke poke, shake shake, wake up! It's time go get up!...and I wake up yelling at him..
He finally learned to leave me alone after I hit him when he did that one morning ... oops!

LMAO, WhiteDolphine!!!!
