Hey Y'all, I Need more Time Out

 

It took me a while to get out of bed this morning. I used 2 spoons so far and I have yet to try to get dressed out of my PJs. That will take a whole 3 or 4 more spoons. Maybe 5. I may just go back to bed for all I know. Fatigue is hard on me today. It takes so much energy to just eat a meal. If you don't understand the "Spoons" or "spoony", just google it. I haven't the energy to explain it to y'all. Yeah, lupus is a bitch. 

Anywho, I just wanted to come online and let y'all know I'm going to have to cut back on my posting. I broke the first and second rules of lupus when I started posting and doing housework again. 

1)"Thou shalt not go whole hog after recovering." 

2)"Pace thyself or thou shalt pay a hefty price."

I did just that. I cleaned the house. Posted almost every day on this blog and then went crazy and finished pulling weeds in the gardens while washing 3 loads of laundry. I should have paced myself as the rules stated but I felt SO FREAKING GOOD that I blew it and now I'm paying the heavy price yet again. I am sooooo damned tired. Did I mention I started typing this blog post almost 2 hours ago? I keep having to stop because my shoulders and arms hurt. GAH!! My kingdom for a strong spider to take over this work. 

Well, I'm out for a while again until I can function. Y'all take care and stay safe.

Jon Stewart Tackles Harris & Trump's Debate

Wet Dog Wednesday

 

Swifties Unite!!

Taylor Swift did it! She came through and she did it during the debate. She endorsed Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. My heart is singing and I'm walking on big puffy clouds even though my pain is on a 7 right now. I don't give a GAWD DAMN! I am fucking happy. This is what she just wrote tonight on her Instagram account. Here is the endorsement:

 "I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election," Swift said in a post on Instagram. "I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades."

"I’ve done my research, and I’ve made my choice," the Grammy-winning artist added. "Your research is all yours to do, and the choice is yours to make. I also want to say, especially to first time voters: Remember that in order to vote, you have to be registered! I also find it’s much easier to vote early. I’ll link where to register and find early voting dates and info in my story."

Swift, 34, signed her post "Childless Cat Lady"

I'm Back

 Yes, I'm back, somewhat, but I'm taking it really slow. I still have crazy pain and fatigue but not as bad. My heating pads are helping a little bit with the body pain and my painkillers are making life around here somewhat bearable. But yeah, I pushed the envelope as David says. I overdid it and the rainy weather didn't help and look where it got me. Hit me with a double whammy of lupus and arthritic lower back pain like nothing I ever experienced before. So bear with me y'all, I'm working on it.
