I felt this storm coming last night. I could not get comfortable, but then once I fell asleep I don't think I woke up once, sleeping in soundly until noon. My natural clock usually wakes me by 9:30 am - 10:30am and not very much later, ever. It wasn't snowing yet when I woke, but I was all disoriented and groggy. It didn't feel like I had slept a wink, when I must have fallen asleep before 3am, which is a good 9 hours of uninterrupted sleep. I should feel fantastic! I'm so sick of waking up feeling like butt. Well that was when it dawned on me to look at the weather report. Sure enough, there was a snow storm headed right for me.Above is something I started to write a couple months ago, and never finished. That is basically how my whole winter played out.
Forgive me for not updating over the winter months as much. It was so cold and I had a very hard time keeping up with life. I will try to be better at this.
For the last month and a half I have been doing physical therapy again, and aquatic therapy again. :-) I love the pool. I wish I could fold it up and put it in my back pocket and bring it home! Now wouldn't that be awesome? My husband says to me, "But it wouldn't fit." Well duh! hehe I WISH being the key phrase there babe. hehe
The therapy has been working wonders and I've learned for the thousandth time that I can't get anything the easy way I must work very hard for what I desire, meaning exercise is the key. So I have been doing what I can, and pushing through the soreness and the aches and the horrible morning stiffness. It's funny that I've always been told that if I move more the stiffness with eventually lessen and maybe even go away... hey that is actually true kids. haha! Moving is the key. YES IT SUCKS! But I will do anything to feel better and this is anything.
I've been actually feeling a lot better and noticing that I'm recovering a lot faster. I still have all the symptoms of fibro, but it's a little less and easier to cope; between taking cymbalta, 10 mg of flexeril in the morning and another at night along with my anti-inflammatory both morning and night. I think I've finally found the recipe for relief. FANTABULOUS!!!
