So....Last post I was raving about the sunshine that she(mother nature) brings to brighten our lives...
I actually felt alive...and not as usual...with a withering body and soul to match.
She brought with her warmth...and in turn filled my body with her radiant glow....I was able to smell the freshness in the air....the new grass clippings,as all the neighbour's began to swarm like bees and begin mowing lawns....
Do you think it's neighbour's pressure? This lawn mowing contagion on a sunny day..... I only wish it was me that could do it....and also caught the lawn mowing....neighbour's pressure virus...
I was fortunate and did make it to my Hydro class....where I was so motivated I worked like a......I can't quite think of the right word...but....I tried extra hard....cause I had the spirit and energy.
Until... Upon getting out of the pool...my feet both began there cramping thing...which then turns to a numbness pain from feet moving up leg....and.....just like that...I can't feel my feet..or ground under them...so I can't walk..... F is for foolish....
As I sit teary on the pool side until it passes....
Now mother nature has had a dramatic mood swings from her gorgeous mid 20s to her drop in temperament to 15..... Just when I was exited I had made a full fortnight of mornings at work!! Now here I am lying with rib pain that engulphed me earlier thizmorning.....no work today...boo...hoo...
Only medication ,warmth and rest.
So...trying to be okay with this...and now know it is just part of it all...I am accepting...this is me...and how my life will be....so...it's up to me to...on the better days to embrace it all!!
Love...life....achievements.... And all else that presents itself... I certainly cannot tackle anything with gusto...but I sure am going to try......
I nearly actually forgot to share my biggest triumph....it's been twelve weeks since my Ketamine treatment and rehabilitation..yesterday I finally walked the whole lap of my my most favorite lake...
Finally I got to walk in my former self steps....and it was great....fifteen minutes!! ...yeah....
What a sense of achievement...Finally....
F is for finally..... Now to slowly begin to prepare to again in the future to ride my bike so hubby and I can have a leisurely ride together.....this will come with time...

And big thanks to Mother Nature....
My unwanted visitor hasn't arrived in his usual and ubrupt. Manner the past couple of days.....
For those that are followers you will know I Am referring to my Fibro unwanted visits....
The gorgeous sunshinny weather and lack of sudden barametic pressure change has scared him away...for this I am truly greatful..
It has been in the mid twenties the past couple of days and I have even completed the following tasks...
Have been to my work two mornings straight!!! Ever so exited about this....Love....my work!
Went out for coffee with my daughter and grandaughter today...and even was able to nurse her very briefly....Yah!!!!!!!!!
Attended my new Fibromyalgia group meeting the other evening....and considering I have worked so hard to get it up and happening locally....I'm loving I have managed to hold myself together for it.
If any Fibromites are reading this you will probably know...
Although my two days have been amazing....I actually have still had pain and required pain relief....
But overall...I say thank you to mother nature and the beauty she has shared with me this week.
We'll I would love to also share the sucessfulness of my Fibromyalgia support group,we even had a few more attendees this week,and some family members...
It's going so well...the group....only up to the fourth meeting has already built a comaradary of sorts...and friendships...and the group dynamics beggining to form.
Everyone is brave...
And honestly shares their story, feelings and worries openly....there appears no apprehension....and there is something special about the group support given to others on an evening in need.
Such resilient.....and open group... of people....Their amazing.....
For those reading this that are Fibro sufferers....your welcome to also visit my new Facebook Page that I made for our group...
In hope it helps and resources all fibromites. And family members out there... To a better state of health and wellbeing and conectiveness...to a fibromyalgia community.Please feel free to visit....it would be great for any of you to drop by and say hi.
