I’ve had a miserable couple of months. Pretty much since we moved into the new place on Christmas I’ve had a hard time getting the engine in gear. I’ve had more bathrobe days than I care to count. I get up and do stuff when I absolutely have to but other...

If you have fibromyalgia and are a California resident…

I just got an interesting letter from The National Fibromyalgia Association: On Tuesday, March 16, the National Fibromyalgia Association – along with members of the California NeuroAlliance – will be in Sacramento to meet with state lawmakers about proposed legislation that ensures continuation of care for prescription drug...

A Carnival of Our Own…

So the gang all got together and came up with a plan…let’s put on a show! Kidding. Actually “the gang” started with a forum for women with chronic “Invisible Illnesses” called Chronic Babe. (Chronic Babe is the brain child of Jenni Prokopy.) The one thing we all have in common is...

Get ‘er done!

I just spent several hours unsubscribing from a whole bunch of emails, catalogs, newsletters, blogs about blogging…all the stuff that I skim through fast and then hit the delete key. I have three different email accounts to do that to so it took some time. I know, three email accounts?...

I’ve got a bazillion reasons not to post lately. My computer is slower than molasses and my brain is running at the same speed. And I can’t seem to drag the computer into the bathroom. But whatever. I’ve got a couple things on my mind so thought I’d share. Be...

Healthcare from my daughter Teresa’s perspective… Since I’ve started looking into the medical system from a bringing life into the world perspective, I’ve found the US is a scary ass place to do it. For 1/3 of the cost of a hospital birth a low risk woman can give birth at...

I hope this isn’t true…

Another rant about healthcare

Have you noticed I haven’t been blogging much lately? I’ve noticed it at least:) This happened once before last August when I was frustrated by family problems. Again…frustrated. Different problem, but has absolutely nothing to do with my blogging. Weird, isn’t it? So I’m going to force it. Bear with me,...

Perfect example of people who refuse to understand there is SOMETHING WRONG WITH OUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEM!

Okay so now not only am I flaring and foggy, I have no computer. It started acting like it was in a computerized exorcism (making very strange noises and making mincemeat out of whatever I was working on) so it was time to take it in. Or buy a new one....

Flaky much?

Feb 3, 2010 11:16am

Traveling without a computer makes it difficult to blog. So I haven’t been blogging, nor responding to comments. I’m sorry. I’ve been home for three days and flaring like crazy. Foggy, oh so foggy… so still not writing. Quick LDN update: I stopped taking the LDN while I was traveling because the...
