I try to keep my blog topics on the lighter side of pain…which is somewhat of a challenge since pain is my daily companion.<\/p>\n
Take today. I am dealing with the pains from the past 72 hours of non-stop preparing for a double going away party for our two sons who have joined the United States Marine Corps and will be leaving in a couple of weeks. We had over 75 people on our property two days ago. It was a jolly time and the fellowship was sweet!\u00a0<\/p>\n
I was an emotional basket-case that day…so many people who came to wish our sons farewell…my body felt like a broken ceramic pitcher that had been glued back together and had just sprung a leak!<\/p>\n
Yes, the party was 48 hours ago. The day after the party my body just went Ka-put! Today I am mustering just enough energy to get through the day.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My Plantar Fasciitis<\/a> in both feet has me barely able to walk…one foot is in an air cast due to the torn fascia tendon from three weeks ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n I would do it all again for the sons I love and will miss desperately. My body may disagree, but that has been my chief complaint with Fibromyalgia…<\/p>\n The day of the party we grilled over 20 pounds of BBQ plus sides and desserts (most of which friends brought to help! Thank you friends!!) However I still made the cupcakes in their honor but had to delegate the rest.<\/p>\n Speaking of delegation…am I the only one who hates to delegate tasks????<\/p>\n In my pre-fibro life, I did it all. I did it all happily and (without) complaint…(usually, but I was<\/em> organized down to the crossing of the “t’s” and dotting the “i’s”.)\u00a0<\/p>\n Now I make lists…and forget where I left them. I have thoughts and cannot remember them.\u00a0<\/p>\n I have a white board in my kitchen for my thoughts and “plans” but I can rarely see them through without the extreme painful joints and daily exhaustion.<\/p>\n So. today my blog is not the most uplifting. Today I am just a “normal” Fibromyalgia sufferer who deals with the pains from doing something at the time she does it…and the aftermath of some 24-72 hours later.\u00a0<\/p>\n What will tomorrow bring?<\/p>\n Ask me tomorrow!\u00a0<\/p>\n Til then…I will keep on keeping on!<\/p>\n May the good Lord give me the strength to endure this daily life with Fibromyalgia!<\/p>\n ~The Fibro Momma of Ten<\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I try to keep my blog topics on the lighter side of pain…which is somewhat of a challenge since pain is my daily companion.
