Monday morning, start of a brand new week, let's see what goals I have.
Today's DH's birthday so we'll be going out unless I get another migraine (NOOOOOO!!!!), so that's the first goal. Second, I see my therapist at 2:00. Third, I think I'll work on my messy jewelry drawer some more.
Fibro wise, I woke up with all my nerves and muscles on fire. Felt like someone had poured Liquid Drano into my vein and it had spread throughout my body. Fortunately that passed as soon as I got up, and now I'd have to say I'm at a fibro 5, base line functional!! YAY ME!!

Hi LS,
Good luck with all your goals, especially for dinner tonight for the birthday celebrating!
I hope your number goes up a little.. or at least doesn't go down any so you stay at functional. I can't imagine what it would feel like to have Drano in my veins, but the mental image is enough to make me cringe and then think "what a trooper" (don't you just hate that expression??) you are! 
Have a good day! And week!
--Steph

Hi,
I am so happy that after you got up the fire in your nerves and muscles went away. I can't even imagine how that must feel. 
After you work on your jewelry drawer can you come over here and organize mine. BTW, Do you clean windows, too? I also need that done while you are here. 
Have fun at the Birthday party

Thanks, everybody! I'm back from the therapist and will start in on that jewelry drawer as soon as finish checking the posts here. No, Barbie, I don't do windows, sorry, but my DH does!! He's SUCH a prince!

Hi, Alesha, right? I saw your name on another post. I like your picture.
Fibro is short for fibromyalgia. It's a chronic pain and fatigue syndrome that a couple of us here have. My husband and I made up this silly scale to describe how I feel:
Fibro scale
10=doesn't get any better than this
9=can do everything
8=feeling pretty good
7=kinda sorta ok
6=tired but not achy & sick
5=base line functional, can do anything, but not everything
4=below minimal
3=pretty sick
2=if andy needed to be taken to er, i'd get up, but tough
1=if bldg was burning, I'd get up
0=kill me now
It's kind of like arthritis or asthma, once you get it you always have it but it can be managed with meds and exercise and stuff.
Thanks for asking! And welcome again, so glad you're becoming an active poster!! I love to see people participate. This is such a fun place.
See ya round!!

Oh LS, I'm so sorry your day stated out this way........but glad the Draino when down the drain and you were up to at least a 5. I just don't know how you endure this day after day......migraines, aches and pains, etc. Something's gotta give!!
Hope you could go out and enjoy DH birthday. From what you say about him he's got to be one fantastic guy!!!
I'd say your goal is just to get thru the day......It would be mine!
