RubyRedSox's Journal, 10 December 2011

Exhausted but happy today.

Yesterday was the longest time I had with my granddaughter. My daughter came by early yesterday morning and stayed until she had to leave for a business xmas party she had to attend so I had Lilly from about 3pm to almost 11pm so it was a late night for me. I managed just fine and gave her a bath but fibro is bad this time of year so I paced myself and slept in a bit this morning.

Right about 9pm last night , I was starving (or thought I was). Normally I'm not hungry but last night I was so I had strawberries and scrambled eggs. My fasting blood sugar was 97 this morning so happy with that.

Anyway, wanted to pop in and let everyone know I'm still alive. It's just the fibro that taxes me so much. Especially with my busier lifestyle. I'm enjoying it very much but I still have only so many spoons in a day (see; Spoon Theory) I know there's many of you out there who understand all too well!

Right now it's 39 degrees outside, I've had some cottage cheese for breakfast and I'm working up to getting a hot shower sometime today lol. Still in my jammies and really wanting to crawl back into bed:p

Hope everyone is well!!

Morning, Ruby. So glad you got to spend so much time with little Lilly. I so understand what you mean about only having so many spoons....so do I, and if I try to overdo, I sure do pay for it. As for wanting to crawl back in bed, I say go for it! lol My theory is that if your body feels like it needs it, it probably does! Love and lots of gentle hugs coming your way. Have a beautiful weekend, my dear!

I just read the Spoon Theory. Thank you so much for posting that. It put tears in my eyes and made me realize how much time I waste everyday and how much I take for granted. Also, it made me realize what it means for you to even post in your journal. Thank you for giving us one of your spoons. HUGS!

Hi Ruby, that was a good theory..as to most people that are healthy have no idea what it takes to make a day right...You are a true champion and my hero..its hard to realize what others go through unless you have walked in their shoes...So glad you had a great time with Lily I know she makes you smile alot...Enjoy your Sunday...♥♥
