Well... today I didn't do much, but on Thursday I was able to vacuum my Grandma's house! I haven't been able to do that since March of this year! It took me two hours, but I wasn't ready to collapse from knee/ankle pain by the time I was done!

Er-- clarification on that last post. I first started noticing something was wrong in July of 2010. It started with pain in one ankle... spread to both... then both knees. Nothing we tried helped, and nobody could tell us what was wrong. Finally found out I have Lyme around a year ago (?), but the various treatments we tried weren't working. I ended up pretty much confined to my room/ not walking/crutches. Now we're trying Rife machines, have been doing that for a couple months now, and in the last week alone we've been seeing improvement. Very exciting!

Well tutu i know im doing too much and i am so ready to stop
After i took ibu i had two hours of being able to walk. I remember i didnt take any cuz gi was so bad yesterday
I got the offuce closet ready and bath has to be finished before bed cuz i have it all on my bed to sort...just threw away saline for cleanung after surg a year ago
I knew when i started ibu 30 yrs ago this day would come. My choice is walk or die from bleeding ulcers
Im so tired. I guess i can try more fish oil and maybe more curcumin.but i think the curcumin messes up my gi too
I hope most of construction is done next week and i can just settle down for winter

How much curcumin are you taking? It bothers my stomach, but it is all I take. I can't take ibuprofen or even tylenol.
So maybe if that is all you take, your stomach can handle it. I take it every 6 hours.
Praying for ya, gal!

This morning my mind told me to start packing with what health i had to workw tih.
But, then my mind kept changing channels. I scooped today's cat poop out of her box and started to drive it to the VEt.
then, decided maybe I should just find another home for the cat and wrote up a sign and put it on the community bulletin board.
Then, decided I really should have her poop tested to see if she has anything. And bring the results to the LLMD.
I have been seeing posts on FB about how your cat could be causing you illnesses. But, not able to read them.
I was dx with toxoplasma in 1984 while pregnant with my younger daughter. She also was tested and it came back positive.
But, the doc did not know what to do about it. I did not even have a cat.
I know I have bartonells. I did not have a cat then either.
OK getting off topic I think.
What I did this am wore me out. Resting now and then I will get up and see if I cna do some more. But, most likely will not be able to do anything until this evening.
Also able to wash a few dishes but still have more to do.
Looked for Rosie's working vest this am but couldn't find it. It has my debit card in it also.
The dirty carpets are really bothering me thsi am adn the couch and car seats....they have been bothering me for years but no funds to get them cleaned. It is on the list.
Somedays they bother me more than other days. Today is one of those days.
Typing this with eyes closed so hope it makes sense.
The next get up besides getting something to eat is going to be to plug in the small power chai rand charge it.
I also am going to have the caregiver get the heavey raMP OUT FROM THE STORAGE WHEN SHE COMES TOMORROW. sHE WILL NEED TO MOVE SOME BOXES IN ORDER TO DO SOL.
pLANNING ON USING IT TO LOAD MY POWER CHAIR INTO THE VAN.
iT IS NOT A RAMP TO LOAD POWER CHAIRS INTO V VANS BUT A RAMP FOR DOORWAYS INTO A HOUSE....BUT MAKING DUE.
hOPE MY FRIEND CAN HANDLE IT.
hOPE WE CAN FIND A WAY TO TIE DOWN THE POWER CHAIR.
nOT SO SURE ABOUT TAKING IT IF WE CAN'T TIE IT DOWN.
iT WAS FINE WHIEL i WAS IGNORANT. bUT, NOW THAT I KNOW WHAT DAMAGE A POWER CHAIR CAN DO IF IT IS NOT TIED DOWN AND WE HAVE TO STOP SSUDENLY..I THINK WOULD RATHER NOT TAKE IT.
at ONLY 20 MPH IT CAN DO SOME BRAK THE SPINE INJURY'S IF YOU GET HIT BY IT IN THE CAR.

hi everyone.
welcome SWF
I started my new job today.
4 hours and it was so exauhsting. I wanted to cry when I got in the car after my shift. my eyes wer buggy, my hands hurting, back aching, . so it felt like a total relapse.
I had no idea I would feel this way . I thought I was ready to do this, now I am not too sure. how can I do it? standing the whole time at the cash register. they put me right there. it ws so hard to remember what to do an d to deal with all the stuff.....
coupons, disctounts, rewards cards, .....how can I remember it all? I kept messing up my employee password. then I realized I mispwlled it when I first typed it in and so I had no idea what I actually typed! How embarrassing.
should I quit? I don't wanna waste their time or mine. all for $7.60 an hour! not sure it's worth it. that was 4 hours, wed it will be 5 hours. just the thought of that makes me want to cry.
mu husband says I need to get used to it. it took me 2 hours after just to start to feel ok again. and there went the whole rest of my day.
I can't find any positives in this. what was I thinking.
they told me I did really well for my first day though. haha
not by my standards, but I think I have become an dexpert by now on how to pretend I have no symptoms until I hold them in so long I wanna burst!.
I hope everyone's ok.. I read to catch up but I am too confused to remember who did what right now, sorry.
taking a nap now before it's time to take my next dose of meds.
goodnight y'all

Lisa...do they know you have chronic illness? Im wondering if there is a way to get a stool to sit on...i know when i ran a register...one of last jobs before i went out on disability...if i was sitting i was able to think better
My hands hurt from making change but other things were easier
The friend i visited last weekend at the lake is starting a register job 8.00 an hour. She has to drive 20 miles each way...i dont think she'll evenmake gas money
Hope every one is ok

Kayak... How many mg on the curcumin? Space them out if you can.
If you decide to get a rife machine, I know where you can get one for $500 and it's worth at least $1000.
I'll be out most of tomorrow.

kayak, yes a stool would be nice. I may ask.. I am shy that way. I don't know why. and they do know I have lyme. I'm sure they know nothing about it though.
I drive 10 miles each way. my friend says it's not worth it. I am really getting anxious about going back tomorrow. probably psyching myself out. the other workers were not friednly at all and this makes it all worse.
not one- not one- introduced themselves or said hello or even carried a conversation when I spoke to them.
is this how people are now? I had a temp job a couple years ago (making candy! yum) and the people there were super nice and professional.
the person that hired me for this new job was super nice during interview and paper signing on Sunday (2 hours of signing papers for a $7.60/hr job!!) but yest when I started she was not nice and was kind of mean. maybe she just having a bad day?
I am just used to much more from past jobs as far as co-workers go.
just thinking about this is giving me a stomach ache and makes me feel like crying!
lymetoo, you may be right. I am just so sensative.
well, today I drive for the last day to my face cream job. it is a nice quiet drive and I get $93 for ten minutes! so THAT is worth it!!!!

got up and got the overnight bag out and started to put the shampoo and other bottles i use when camping in it then realized i didn't need to have dish soap and whatever those other bottles were. i most likely will not be using them.
rosie gave me the look so took her out to toilet in the dark this am
got back and too weak to continue trying to put things in the overnight bag.
sure hope the doc is able to get me more caregiver hours so i can start doing a better job of eating each day....although not so sure that is the issue

We are leaving at dawn on Thursday if health allows.
I am taking the cot and hammock in case I need to stop along the way and just lay still and quiet some place as health usually can't handle being in the car very long.
I also can't handle being on the cot either very long for some reason. I seem to be OK if I am camping and in the tent.
But, for some reason, I don't do OK if I am laying out in the open on the cot in the forest as I try at times...20 min is the most I usually last.
Havne't figured out why yet. Maybe because I was trying to lay on my side instead of on my back as I do in the tent.
That reminds me...bring pillows and cover.
It looks like the person is going to come thru afterall. She said she got it off late so even if I don't get it in time, it will work out.
Not sure why but I feel like having a good cry. When I saw the email my friend sent me from the company she is renting the van from it brought tears to my eyes and I am not even sure why.
Fear is also a factor..but I think that is because I am so low functioning ...I am OK with that.
I also am having to face how much lower functioning I am than when made my last trip to CA to see a LLMD years ago. ..maybe 8 yrs ago..
DRove Rosie out to the forest area...I wasn't planning on it this am but she kept giving me the look..and it is something i can do..as the car moves my body

Ok able to get some camping pants and top and shorts and top in clothing bag .....camping pants are stained but at least i know they fit kind of...might change them later whne I have what it takes to try on some other pants.
I put some pants on today that are nice but too long..i tried to cuff the bottoms but they just came off..they most likely will work as I dont need to be walking with them while riding in the car or power chair.
able to put a can of soup and a can of veggie chili in the ice chest and some nuts in a baggie
can't do restaurants or drive thru's so bringging my food....i figure we can stop along the way in a quiet place and eat

OK Got the ramp out of the storage unit on the patio.
Caregiver did it. I just showed her where it was.
It is heavy duty. It is not for loading a power chair in to a van but that is what we are going to use it for.
It is for being able to go over a door into a house and to stay permanent...

Lisa, maybe you can come up with new ideas for the bandanas to sell even more quickly. Can you personalize them with names?
Kayak.. sorry you are having to move your plants. I nope those guys aren't just making you spin your wheels for nothing.
Take care.. I will be out most of the day again.
Bon Voyage, kam!!

I got to see my husband play in the jazz band last night. It was gratifying for me to do so. Because of my horrible foot pain for the past 2 1/2 yrs, I've been unable to attend his concerts.
So .. I was also able to video his solos. He did well. It may take him a day or two to get them uploaded to You Tube, but I'll let you guys know when they go up.
I won't post them here for privacy reasons. Or I could post them and then remove them after 24 hours.
Today I went to a Christian women's luncheon. We also had a silent auction. I bought some sweets for my hubby. The speaker was really really good. I bought her book, titled "I Saw Heaven." The author's name is Patti Miller Dunham. I can't wait to read it!
She's originally from MO and lives in TX .. the opposite of me!

Its late morning and i am slow. I am finally dressed and ready for handyman. He didnt call but ut is only raining lightly now. Later itwill storm and my job is inside so i hope he will come. Im pretty sure hes working outside now
I have about three hrs before pest guy comes. I know they think i am crazy. Part is memory. Part they keep switching the guy who comes. I smell dead mice where no one else does...but i know they are there. Under the kitchen cabinets. So gross.
Etta bit me this morning. Puncture. I got my rife machine and she got one of the packing peanuts. At first i thought it was funny-she was throwing it in the air. Then when it got wet it stuck to the side of her face. When i went to get it she bit me. It must have tasted good. I never saw a peanut get all stucky like that.
I put her in office for time out when i took a shower. Shes back on my lap now
Hope kam does well. Sorry to hear about lisas niece.
Guess i better get ready for the pest guy

I went to hospital last night to see my niece and sister that is sleeping there with her.
I walked from the parking lot so that was a tiny bit of exercise. My husband and I took the dog on a medium walk last night also.
today I hope to clean a little. be there is my sister needs me. and sew and get ready for a flea market tomorrow that I am going to try and sell things. For that I will need to wake by 4:00am. that I can do, but staying awake and not napping then driving home is what worries me.

Good for you lisa to do what you can to make money
How ws niece?
I had triuble getting to sleep cuz of pain. I did a lot prepping for worker and pest guy
Worker didnt come or call. He hasnt answered about five calls/messages
I sent him.big check in mail with note to please fit in my small job...probably half a day for him and i can get back in my bed. Uts si hrd sleeping on daybed now with knee and shoulder pain...i have to prop mysekf up with pillos in bed or sleep in recliner and that makes other problems
Anyesy it was pouring when pest people came so we couldnt deal with nesting bees but good report about mice. Very small hints they have been here and it could have been 3 months ago. Looks like chipmunks have mived in. They are eating all mouse bait. It doesnt kill them but it kills their babies and they have 5 or6 twice a year so i guess i amslowly getting rid of them. They dont seem to get in house but live under slab and i am afraid ticks and fleas will come up thru tiny cracks like ants do
I guess i will spray the orange guard once a month or so even if i dont see any. I usuallt only spray when i see them
Oh! I posted tht the orange guard killed the tick in two minutes but i guess it didnt when i showed it to pest people four days after i thought it was dead it had crawled about six inches up. Im pretty sure it did die...but nevet say never with a tick. They survuve a lot
So it seems orange guard is more like deet...slows them down but takes a long time to kill them...maybe when they are sick they cant attach
Gees...what do normal ppl talk about.
Also pest guys put bait in camper...they eat it-prefer it to wires andd then they go outside to tunnels to die
Smell of dead ones under cbinets made me sick yesterdy...we had a lot of rain. I have to buy. Jigsaw orhire someone else to explore under cabinets...so close to being done
Tody im trying to sort, sell, store all the clothes and linens i had stashed in camper in may when all thus started
For fun i will open my new rife machine and try to read about it
Last night i found over 100 conditions it treats that i have so i have to learn more. Im on the rife thread now
Also doing laundry and putting kitchen back together when i can breathe in there
