Yeah, I'm Back. But not 100%. Not right now anyways. Maybe this late spring or summer I'll be better. But right now my health is iffy at best. Lupus did a mean number on me and it started on the 20th of December and got so much worse on the 24th. I think I slept for almost 34 hours because I completely lost track of time at one point. The fatigue and brain fog is a killer. The arthritis in my lower back and shoulders had me walking around hunched over and in so much pain. I don't think I really got up to do much except direct David in making Christmas dinner. I made most of it before I got sick and froze it for easy preparation later just in case. It pays to plan ahead.
I spent most of my holiday time sleeping and lying on the couch. Thank the Goddess for shoulder heating pads. My arthritis seems to have taking hold and won't let go. I have realized that I now have my grandmother's hands. My knuckles have nearly disappeared and my hands are puffy and hurt like a muther all the time. I have to wear compression fingerless gloves most of the time just to do stuff. My kingdom for a reputable human body shop that takes American Express and has a 5 star rating.

I hate hearing that people I consider friends are in pain and you have so much more than your fair share. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it eases a lot soon ✌✌
I'm sorry to hear that your health issues are hanging on to make your life miserable! That's a sonovabitch. I hope things do improve for you.
I learned something new. I didn't know there were compression fingerless gloves.
This sounds really terrible. I hope you'll focus on taking care of yourself and avoid stress as much as possible. The internet will still be here when you feel better.
I'm so sorry, Dear Heart! I hope you are, indeed, able to recover fully.
