SNOW!!!! - Fibromyalgia Message Board

Just a quick note to tell you all that I think I've finally lost my mind! This afternoon we put up our inside Christmas decorations, and that's alot of work! Thank goodness my husband does most of it. Anyway, I've had 3 days of "fairly good" and the first day I went shopping, yesterday I went to the Christmas Parade, and today the decorations. Tonight I'm barely moving, my knees and legs are aching, my arms and shoulders can barely move, and at 10:30 PM I must have gone insane. It never snows here (I mean any accumulation), but today it has snowed all day. It has been so beautiful. Amanda and I have been excited all day.(she's 14) So at 10:30 I tell my husband that if my knees and legs didn't hurt so bad, I would get Amanda and go outside and build a snowman. He said" GO FOR IT", so I did. We got dressed warmly, and out we went. Turned the outside light on and made a huge snow woman with big boobs. We put sunglasses on her and a scarf. She looks really good! Well, to add to the madness, after we finished the lady, Amanda hit me in the mouth with a snowball. We had a big old snowball fight, and I lost. I laughed so much that it hurt. When we came in, my husband had a nice warm tub of water waiting for me. Right now every thing I've got hurts, but I still feel good. Probably won't tomorrow, but that's OK. Just had to tell you all! Wish every one of you could have been here. I had forgotten how good it feels to PLAY! Luv ya! Linda D

How fun! We've had snow here during November, I think it all started early November. It was neat, and I made a couple snow girls with my daughter. Now there is no snow(except for two lumps that used to be our snow girls). But we live right by the Mountains in Northern Utah and usually get quite a bit by January, not us as much as it used to be, but still fun. I'm always overdoing my activity. But I feel guilty when my husband come home and the dishes aren't done, or me and the girls are still in our pajamas. He says it's okay, but I somehow feel it's not because he's always been such a perfectionist and kept things nice and clean. Have I gotten of the topic again? I'm always doing that! Sorry, can't keep track of anything in my mind anymore. Have fun, but don't hurt yourself!

Hey, I envy you. I live in Southern MD near the water so we usually on get rain or ice. Maybe I should learn ice sculpting??! LOL I wish I could have been there--we deserve some fun for all the pains and hard that we have. Then to have a nice warm bath waiting for you- that is the ice cream on top of the cake. Gentle hugs and lots of you to all of you.
