1. You know more about medications, supplements, drug interactions then your doctor/pharmacist combined.

2. If all you want for Christmas is ear plugs, dark sunglasses, and every book written by PJ Langhoff.

3. If you are still up when it’s time to get the kids off to school.

4. You either sleep twelve hours in a row or stay up three days straight, there is no in between.

5. If everything in your cabinets is gluten, sugar, and pesticide free.

6. When all your best friends are online.

7. When you’re happy that your husband left, without you.

8. When you try to drive your kid to school, but end up in the Walmart parking lot with a gallon of milk and no kid in the car.

9. You’re dogs have learned to cross their legs waiting for you to get up in the morning.

10. You have a pill holder bigger then your Grandmas.

11. Sex, what is that? Who cares.

12. When you have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Parkinsons, MS, Lupus, and Panic Disorder.

* And>

* When the pharmacist not only recognizes you by name, she also knows your date of birth!

* You have more pills than a pharmacy

Here's a couple more.......

Run the washer 3 times for one load of clothes because you can't remember to put the clothes in.

Try to use a cookbook but the directions don't make any sense at all.

While reading have to keep going back a couple pages and reread what you just read because you can't remember.

TV is torture because after the commercials you can't remember what you were watching.

Keep getting lost while driving because can't remember where you were going to begin with.

Don't remember how to write checks.

Hard to carry on a conversation due to super short attention span.

aklnwlf, Those are great, and I can relate to each of them!

You know you have Lyme when all the names in your black book have M. D. after them.

Steve,

Love ALL your posts. So upbeat. [Smile]

My favorite was the prime rib, baked potato with butter and sour cream, asparagus, and wine.

That's for Tincup:

You know you have lyme when:

When you are sure that 2 Grandma's WEEKLY pill planners are still not enough for your daily pills and then...

you finally decide to buy a fishing tackle box instead.

Funny you!

At least I'm not advising people to get a bushel basket and a cabana boy to carry it around for them.

Not yet!

PS- Watch Tutu suddenly come to life at the mention of a "cabana boy". Might even bring 6 goofy kids on board too! Once they both stop drooling that is...
