Re: I hate this *bleeping* syndrome-TO JUDY

[Guest guest]

I know what you mean Judy. Fibro is the gift that keeps on giving. It does not

care about what day it is. It keeps on with its stiffness and pain and whatever

it wants to throw on us.

But in spite of it all, Hey, I am here. I am with the kids. I love them.

They are happy and the smiles on their faces make it worth waking up.

Your husband really should help you more. He really has no idea what you are

going through.

Well, anyway,

love ya all,

Merry Christmas,

Debra V.

butt in gear and help you out!! Also, I sound like a broken record this

morning. Lower your expectations. We all have these images in our head of

the perfect Christmas celebrations. Absolutely spotless, perfectly

decorated homes. Plenty of cookies, freshly baked by us, of course.

Possibly a big, formal dinner to prepare. It's still Christmas without the

perfection we want. Do only minimal housework. Hide the clutter, do a

quick dusting with a Swiffer duster, and clean the bathrooms. Consider

having only appetizers on Christmas, and have everyone bring one or two to

share. If no cookies get baked, then buy store-bought. The world will not

come to an end.

Take care and have the merriest Christmas possible.
