Guest guest Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Hi! I know that I have not been on for awhile, but I am trying to keep up with the reading of the posts. We are having rainy weather in Wisconsin...so weird as it is usually snow at this time of the year!!! Emotionally, I am doing great, but my body is hurting a lot today and my fingers are very swollen. I am looking forward to the appointment with the rheumatologist to get some relief from my pain and proper meds. Yes, I usually only take Tylenol for arthritis for pain as I have had a lot of side effects from pain meds. I liked Tramadol(Ultram) but it reacted to my antidepressant so that ended that. I am on Cymbalta and I like it so much better than EffxorXR, which also worked, but I had more side effects. Emotionally, I am very good as I really believe in Peace and Foregiveness, specially at Christmas. I really try to forgive everyone, even myself. I am hoping for a great, scaled down Christmas. Last year, I was so depressed and I did almost nothing. This year, I sent cards, bought gifts and plan on doing some baking tomorrow. I also have enjoyed my job at the toy store. Last year, I was unemployed from Oct to May... What works to organize me is: Get a lot done before work, because after work, I am pretty tired. I make the supper before work and just heat it up when I get home. My husband or daughter does the dishes. I also do my laundry in the morning and I have to do my housecleaning mostly on my days off. Well, everyone have a good, painfree as possible day. Gentle hugs, Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
