May I Buy a Vowel?

So, now that I have the weaning medication ‘diet’ under control, I don’t want to jinx how I’m feeling. That means that this post may be a bit of a challenge to those suffering fibro fog today:

I woke up today, feeling pr_ttg__d, to a message telling me that my pain course (do I really need to learn more about pain?) has been postponed. This was g_e_t news because I had been worried that my day was going to be too busy.

After checking mail, comments, posts, etc, I went for a walk to the post office (to send off 19 orders – took an hour there!) and was feeling g_e_t, especially as I had finally started getting these orders out to you guys!

Walked back home and sent out all the despatch emails. (Sorry, guys, if you didn’t get an email today, we are still waiting for the stock.)

OMG! I am feeling am_zi_g! Maybe it might be time to clean my house? 
Stop, said the little angel on my shoulder, remember all that pacing stuff that you wrote about? Time to put that into practice, miss! So, instead of cleaning, I sat down and played some very relaxing games of Scrabble, Words with Friends and Lexulous.

At about 4pm, the AusPost package man came to the door – YIPPEE! Could this be what I (and you) might be waiting for? Sorry, once again, that’s a no. Instead, it was my new swimsuit from the fat lady store in the States – not a bad consolation prize (at least, for me!) I tried it on – pe_fe_t fit! Bring on Bali!

Next, I did a few odd jobs (you know, those things that you can’t really list – but take up time during the day?) Then, I threw together my swim bag for hydrotherapy.

WOW! B_st class ever! Everything is stretched. Everyone was in a chatty, talkative mood. And I still feel tre_en_ous!

The question is: please (please, please), can this last until (at least) after Bali?

About Purple Law Lady

Wow! I was 40 before I heard about Fibromyalgia. After spending 6 years working (in the 'real' world) and studying to get my law degree, half of which I suffered (literally) with depression, I was able to 'practice' law for one whole month before the debilitating purple wave took over my life - FIBROMYALGIA! Unlike many, I have NOT learned to manage this condition so I am not working and I spend alot of time on my couch. So I've decided to share this time with you (who may be real people or may just be the 'ether').

  1. i love this post! not only am i’m rejoicing with you that you had such a g_e_t day, but you made me laugh! Thank you!! Janie

  2. Love it! Glad you are feeling well! I’m a new follower so what is it that you are sending out?

    • I have a Fibro Awareness store: http://www.freewebstore.org/fibromodem, and we have been waiting for two deliveries of gorgeous, silver-plated bracelets. One order came – so I sent out all that I could but I’m still waiting on the other order.
      Have a look – (if I must say so myself) there’s some really nice things!

      • Beautiful! If I wasn’t allergic to silver… =) I’m excited about your blog! I started my blog only because I shared something I wrote to explain to my family & friends what my life is really like w/fibro and the school nurse told me I really needed to post it on a blog…so here I am.

  3. I love reading what everyone has to say, it lets me know I am not alone!!!! Most people do not understand fibro and it is hard to explain to most folks! They just kind of look at you like you are crazy! I want to scream at them sometimes, but it’s not thier fault. I am all for getting the info out to the public anyway we can! Thanks to all of you for being here for all of us!!!!

  4. Awesome, so happy for you and I will be sending you lots of positive energy that this feeling lasts for you. Bali or bust..I hope that you will be able to share your holiday with the rest of us through pictures and experience. Thanks for all you do Lori

    So glad you are feeling better!!! Glad you are learning to pace. I failed this week as I am getting ready for in laws and threw on a 3 day flare, ate lots of anit inflamitory foods and getting back to normal by reading “Food that helps win the battle against Fibromyalgia” Never had such a short flare!!! Love the positive vibes all around town:) Sounds like we are winning the fibro awareness battle around the world, this book was recommended to me by a woman in california. I have never gotten back on my feet so quickly after a flare and my doctor hasn’t even called me back yet oh well!! I am busy renewing my pantry, my kids are even enjoying all the fresh veggies, don’t know if I am enjoying all the trips to the grocery store, but once my energy levels are up and school starts it will get easier…I hope!

Got something to say...
