Thank goodness excellent weather during my stay with my family, perfect sunny days, cooler nites in FL.
Now back in my apt, new tile floors, glad the carpeting is gone.
Temperatures here in FL, the days are getting hotter, in 90sF by Sunday. Humidity slowly climbing. Typical for Central FL.
My allergies are bad, asthma, allergies, grass pollen. Feel miserable tonite.
Higher temps, higher humidity, grass pollen, I'm having to spend more time in A/C indoors. Glad I had those rare few days.
A rain storm will bring me relief.
I just started posting- I feel this group helps because I know that you are all going through the same things. Iv'e spent over a 3 years going to my doctor, specialized doctors, took every blood test, an MRI and everything came back that I was healthy. People started treating me like the only issue I had was in my head. My doctor and neurologist are the ones the diagnosed me with fibromyalgia . I told a nurse once what that I was diagnosed, and she told me that it just means "we don't know whats wrong with you" - okay - off my soap box
My fibro issues act up when its cold. I live in Colorado so I've been in pain every day since October! I have often thought of moving to Arizona. I have full body flare ups {what I call them} every few weeks or so but pain everyday that moves around my body - the cold weather makes is so much worse.
But then, we have winter and any temperature below 60 makes me feel pain everywhere. I am looking forward to summer--June through August. My symptoms are lessened, even though it gets very humid.
And yes, I am a human weather barometer.
I long to move to Arizona where it is warm and dry. Hopefully after sonny graduates in 4 years I will be able to make that move.
We have a family vacation home in the Orlando area and even though it is hot, that humidity while there kills me.
Wish it was telling me it is going to rain...
I live in Central Florida, about the center of the state. May, it looks and feels like mid-summer. Great for tourists and visitors here looking for heat and sunshine. Bad for me who has sensitivities. Its too hot by mid-day and humidity is getting worse. My survival of this climate is to get out early AM, like 5AM and begin doing my errands, return to my apt before 10AM - when it gets hotter. I do have A/C thank goodness.
At night it barely cools though is never as hot as daytime.
