Vacation and a Weather Flare

I was on vacation the week of Labor Day. I guess it went so well, I didn't think to blog.

Since my husband worked that week, it was mine to do with as I please. Tuesday I did yucky things like get my teeth cleaned and my hair colored and cut. Wednesday I had an enjoyable day of "retail therapy" with my friend Joy. I didn't buy a darn thing, but I still had a good time.

Thursday it started to rain and it rained for a solid week off and on. On the upside, I was forced to slow down and just enjoy the rain and take it easy on my time off. On the downside, I think the weather brought on a flare.

I didn't notice the burning knuckles as much as very painful ankles, feet and hips. This flare definitely hit the lower part of my body.

I finally broke down and took 20mg of P for two days and it seems to have helped.

Vacation did wonders for my mood. I'm back to my happy self.

This weekend DH and I bought a camper. I'm hoping there are many restful weekends in my future.

Wahoo! It's Saturday and I'm On Vacation

Even though I slept until 7:30 this morning, I feel great. My hands don't hurt. My mood is good. I'm ready to do something. Clean house, go shopping, things I normally don't want to do on Saturday morning. Now I just need to capitalize on that.

I was in a decent mood most of the week. Any bad moods this week were attributable to my husband. While not fun, at least I know why. Not like the Monday Funks I've had recently.

This is going to be a good week.
