fibromommy

I’ve had a few issues lately.  My fibromyalgia is out of control.  I can’t seem to get a handle on things.  I hurt so bad…and then it will ease up and things will get better….just to have a day of okay pain levels and then get slammed back down into an unbelievable amount of pain.  I am so tired of hurting ALL THE TIME.

On the upside of things…my husband’s friend from when he was in the Air Force came to visit.  I have had the opportunity to chat with him on the telephone, but had never met him in person.  Well…a couple of days ago I did meet him in person…and he is just what I pictured.  Hilarious and good natured and a great friend to my husband which is so so so important to me…and his cousin he brought along was hilarious as well…I don’t remember laughing so hard in so long.  Unfortunately…the stress of company coming always puts me in a flare and I wasn’t able to get all the things done I wanted to do…painting and whatnot.  When the kids would behave long enough to do the work I had wanted to do, my body wouldn’t.  I love my kids…and I love having company but I DO NOT love the stress it puts on my body.  I wish I knew how NOT to stress over things.  Then to top it all off…I went out on the town two nights in arow and partied and danced and laughed…and woke up the next morning each day in tons of pain…but today…when company is gone…my body is unbelievably sore.  I have NOT been in a flare this bad in a VERY LONG time. 

To top it all off…I have a house that needs cleaning in the morning because another of my husband’s life long friends will be here when he gets off of work…I am excited to see this man…I love his wife and I love him.  I just don’t seem to have the energy to get my home picked up, and nobody ever seems to come visit when my home is picked up.  why not?
