As for the whole mayan thing, I am on the fence. It's awful to say but if the world does end I will finally have some peace and relief from pain and anxiety. If it doesn't then I will keep plodding along doing the best I can every day. If I were to survive and my loved ones didn't then I would soon join them. It is my loved ones that keep me here and going if not for them I would have no purpose.View Thread


During a flare I try to put all of my tools to use. I use Tiger Balm patches on some spots (It's kind of like an Icy Hot patch) and the warm Therma Care patches on other spots if I can't be home and the heating pad if I am home. I try to get plenty of rest, even if I don't sleep I lie down with my eyes closed and concentrate on relaxing. Look for the member tool box under a picture of Caprice on the right side of your screen. A lot of people have put helpful ideas there and through a process of trial and error you will find the tools that work best for you.
I hope that you find some of this information helpful and that you can find the tools that work for you soon. Best wishes and good luck.View Thread



I am about to go crawl back into my bed with my nice heated mattress pad. The cold and rain have me achy and chilled to the bone. I am hoping that after a nice nap I can go on about my day. Sunday is always doggy bath/grooming day. My little girl is pretty easy she just sits there and takes it but my little boy struggles and fights me the whole time. He had a bad experience with a groomer so now I do it all and I get to deal with the aftermath. Dogs are smart and they don't forget.
DH is making a big batch of his homemade chili for supper. He already has it simmering in the crock pot. Before long the house will start to smell wonderful. Later on we will bake some corn muffins to have with the chili.It will be a good way to fight the chill of the evening.
I hope everyone has an enjoyable Sunday. May you accomplish all you set out to do and get it done without invoking the dragons wrath. Lou I hope you are continuing to mend. Nancy, I hope your eye issues are settling down. I can't imagine how scary that can be. Cory, you can keep your snow LOL I don't want it! you stay warm and drive safe
