 Well, I was able to make it to a picnic my sister-in-law had at her house. I enjoyed myself but didn't feel much like talking. That is ok my mother-in=law does enough for the both of us. I am starting to get tired. How depressing, I didn't do much today. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I am going to try some things to do in a book I found called Fibromyalgia cured and see if that helps. I know there has got to be something to take care of this awful condition.

 I am sure the hubbys don't mean to hurt our feelings with their joking. But, I think sometimes, when I don't "look sick" it is hard for mine to understand that I still hurt.

And why is this disease like a light switch. It flares and subsides in a wink of an eye sometimes? So unpredictable. I can go to bed ok and wake up hurting and vice versa.

 I feel for you too. My sister wanted both she and her husband and me and my husband to take our kids to the aquarium in Camden. At first I was psyched to go...then I saw that rainy weather was forecasted for three days in a row, with today being the last of the three and when she wanted to go. I told her that I knew by today it would be a bad idea so I bailed out.

Then I pushed myself anyway to go to IKEA with my husband and daughter. I didn't think the shopping trip would be as extensive as it was. I paid the price bigtime!!!

We have a party coming up for my nephew...his first, and my sister is very excited. I don't want to miss it for the world, but I already know that I can fake it all I want when I'm there that everything is fine, but once I'm home I'll be in hell again.

 Well...we can only do what we can do, and the family will just have to come to terms with our limitations. I know that is easier said than done...and it is a process...but after having the worst fibro flare thus far over the past year and spending most of the winter months mainly in bed and barely functioning, I think I've finally learned my lesson. Also...that I can't cure this disease, but I can learn to live with it, take care of myself, and still be happy.
