Guest guest Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Hello all! I haven't been feeling too great lately but am still smiling up here in icy Oklahoma. The roads in my neck of the woods are covered with 4 inches of ice. Has anyone ever seen a thunderstorm with lightning when the temp is 12 degrees outside...that is what I saw the other night...the ice was streaming down from the sky and it was thundering and lightning was lighting everything up...very wierd. Today it is supposed to get up in the 40's and I can't wait. Yesterday, I felt like I should go to the hospital and am still wondering why I stayed home but I did. My left arm hurt from the armpit on down and I had trouble breathing. I couldn't lift anything with the arm and just took my muscle relaxers and pain pills all day long. I got in our single waterbed(the one with the broken heater - it is on constantly) and laid there for about 3 hours and it eased up some but was still very painful. Today it is better - less painful so I figure it was the extreme cold we went through. I keep thinking I am going to get better - I guess even after so many years that I am still in denial about how bad my RA is... On a good note...I finished 2 quilts before Christmas and have another almost done. I am making a new quilted jacket to wear to the quilt show in OKC the 13-15. I am taking my SIL to the show and we are staying at a hotel for 2 days - no dirty dishes - room service - for 2 days I will be in heaven - PLUS I get to look at beautiful quilts and take a couple classes. Can you tell I am excited...this disease will not get me down. How are everyones New Year's resolutions coming...mine are still being decided...lol God bless, Althea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
