Arthritis, Upside Down You Turn Me



         It's been a busy day. I took my mom to town to the doctor and then we hit some thrift stores after, came home, did dishes, put them away, done a couple loads of laundry, swept all the floors and changed the dinning room around, cleaned out where I keep all the pots and pans, answered emails, caught up on facebook messages and touched base with some of the people that I work from home with, then finally had some dinner with my husband and oldest daughter.

I shouldn't have moved the dinning room around, I am already hurting from doing so. I have been diagnosed with Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis and Psoriatic arthritis. When I am having a good day, I feel like superwoman and try to do as much as I can. Then the pain reminds me later as if it's tapping me on the shoulder trying to tell me "I own you". It makes me so angry. It really makes me angry that it hit me out of nowhere about a year ago. I really didn't feel any warnings, then one day I could barely lift my arm up, then the next day something else and well, it kinda took off from there. I wasn't ready for it. Then on top of all of that, I have been getting hives on a weekly bases for a year as well and we can't seem to pin down what is causing them. Life continues to challenge me! I thought my 20's were tough, 30's a little rougher and now into my 40's, wondering what in the world will my 50's be like! I'm not whining. Just venting my thoughts and how my day started off great and quickly got turned upside down. Tomorrow is another day and I will roll back over!
