SherryeB's Journal, 21 February 2023

I like dipping into the 135's, even if it only lasts for a day 😊 I don't want to get under 135.

Therapy today. Ray had me do some exercises, then did traction therapy on my neck. We're trying that in response to the arthritis found on my exrays. I wasn't sure what to expect when she described what she planned to do. I don't usually like my head held stationary....I am claustrophobic....but I didn't mind it. I actually liked it.

I was trying to put on some earrings today & I think the piercing in my left earlobe has closed 🤔 I don't wear earrings as much these days, but I did have some on weekend before last. I think I put some on at least once since then. I've had pierced ears for years....weird that should happen.

Book Club got canceled tomorrow night cause our hostess is sick. A couple of others had been exposed to some illness & one is out of town, so it was decided we'd postpone talking about the book til next month.

I decided to make dinner arrangements with my Sister instead. We used to get together for lunch every couple of weeks...usually on Friday. Since I started going to the Gym Mon., Wed., Friday we haven't done lunch much. We're going to try a new restaurant if we can get in.

So, I need to get to bed. Tomorrow is Gym day, so I need to get up & moving at a reasonable hour. I didn't sleep well last night for some reason.

Good for you in the 135's!! Better than the other extreme! I had pierced ears since I was a teenager. I stopped wearing earrings but they stayed open. That is till I tried to wear them, & found the right one closed. So weird, with yours too! Hope you get to have lunch with your sister. Family & friends are so important. More so than I realized years ago.

Hazel, it was so weird. I tried putting an earring with a straight back in last night & it slipped in. The pair I was trying wear had a little loop with a slightly bent end. I could not get it to go through. The ear feels a little tender. I think the hole was trying to close. I'm determined to not let my weight go the other direction by too much! My sweet spot is between 135 & 139.

Maybe try a straight back on the closing ear? Unless it's too painful, of course. I used to put antibiotic on my ears when that happened. Maybe it will open it a bit, too? It's funny, since getting Fibromyalgia, I don't wear any jewelry anymore. Not even my wedding rings! The weight & feel of it hurts and irritates me. I know, it's weird. Sad, too. My husband wears more jewelry than I do!! Lol

Oh I meant to say that I also have neck issues, so bc of what you said about the traction, I'm going to try it. I don't like to have my head in a "trapped", position either, but if it gives me headache relief - Hell yes! 😄

Hazel, the straight backed earring went through. Today I was able to put my earrings in no problem. I think maybe that ear was irritated & had formed a scab that made it hard to get the first earring through. I put alcohol on it last night. I don't like anything up close around my neck. Can't stand turtlenecks or even high necked tops. I like scooped necks or v necks. I don't like heavy necklaces or necklaces close around my neck. So I like to wear dangling earrings (lightweight) & bracelets. I take off all of my jewelry the minute I get home.
