Home

I am finally home after four weeks at my parents house. It is so nice to be home again! There is so much to do and I hurt all over from trying to get it all done, but I am home!! My cable with modem will be on wednesday and then I will be updating more regularly.

Last wednesday I spent the entire day at the ER because my dr was out of town and Rachel (my nurse) told me to go to the ER. They took me straight back because of my history and because I was running a temp again. It seems like I can never get this stuff to settle down for awhile, but hopefully now that I am at home, my life may settle back down a little bit and the flare will settle down. I hope so because right now every part of me hurts and I need a break but I do not know where one is coming from.

Everyone is happy to be home again-the animals, the kids and of course my husband and myself. It was great sleeping in my bed again and wonderful to be able to turn the heat to where I am comfortable-LOL. The things you take for granted. It was hard for me at my dads as far as the tempature goes because my dad keeps his house so cold at night and that caused me to be stiffer than a board. So I was happy that when I woke up saturday, sunday and monday I was warm and it was still hard to get out of bed but it did not make me cry.

I can not believe how much my life keeps changing. I can not open alot of things that I used to be able to open. I can not lift things that I used to be able to. I was hodling something for my husband yesterday and he said "why are you shaking so bad" and I told him-I always do anymore when I try to hold anything regardless of how light it is my hands do not want to work like that.

Right now typing is hurting also and my thumbs are killing me so I am going to wrap this up for now. Just wanted everyone to know-I AM HOME!!
