Hey there Chynna. Wanted to say hi and thanks so much for stopping by my journal and for the words of encouragment. I had found a good combination to treat my fibro and all was going well until my doctor suggested I go off of that and try mega dosing vitamin D. He had heard that 5000-6000 mg of Vit D have been shown to help those suffering from fibro. Well, as you could see - it wasn't working. Now I am going back on the 2 Ultram for pain and a Feldine for inflamation, and Cymbalta for the pain and depression in the AM, and Ultram or even Vicodan for pain as needed through the day. I am hoping that soon I will be back to where I was when Fibro was just a nucence (sp) instead of the major pain it is right now.

Combine the fibro with the boarderline and I am basically a timebomb waiting to go off. The timer is ticking and I am trying very hard to pull the fuse before it goes off. I know that I have to keep moving - literally. If I stop, I hurt, it is just that simple. Many people here have noticed and even marveled at my physical labor that I do on the farm and can't believe that I do it. Simply put - I have to in order to fight the fibro.

Ok - enough of me - this is your journal after all. Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you will come again. Oh - by the way - you mentioned my name... rodeomom is what I am, my daughter competes in rodeo events. There are soccer moms, football mom's - I am a rodeomom.

Blessings!

Good Morning everyone! It's SNOWING SNOWING SNOWING here in good ole' Upstate New York and quite beautiful i must say, something i don't say to often, especially after it gets old looking..lol!
We are expecting a BIG snowstorm today into tomorrow morning. Yayyyy choir rehearsal has been cancelled for this evening and that couldn't be better music to my ears, cuz i had not learned ALL the songs i was expected to play for tonight..hmmmm
Maybe i'll go out and make a snow angel...better yet, hubby has the day off today so maybe we'll BOTH go out in the front yard and make spectacles of ourselves:+)

Hope everyone is doing well this morning physically as well as emotionally. Praying this will be a compliant day today!

Until later..have a GREAT day y'all:+))

CHI said: Hey sweetpea! So glad everything went as planned. I told all the rest of my "angel" clan to make sure of it !
Love you bunches your Chi~

And there you are having a snowball fight, instead of making snow angels...tsk, tsk.
But thanks, my CHI, for calling on your 'angel clan', There's safety in numbers, ya know!
I love the song Tennessee Ernie Ford recorded, "Oh, Come Angel Band".
Love you the most...

[ChynnaDoll]

Aw, you're welcome sweetpea!

Well nothing to interesting to report today except i got Time Warner RoadRunner for my computer and i'm totally computer ILLITERATE, and still have my WEBTV. So at times i may be asking the computer experts here (Unca, Mike, Biki) how to do certain things..lol!

The snow finally stopped late last night, but we're gearing up for ANOTHER snowstorm for this weekend starting tomorrow sometime or another...i just hope we don't lose power.

Other than that, everything is going pretty good.

Hope everyone else is doing good and having successful days in being compliant:+)

TTYL!

I know what it is like to miss your mother. It will be 10 years on January 17th that I lost my Mom. I miss her dearly. But you know what my friend. Your Mom is always with you. Just remember that.
