Lack of energy....have a good day!!!

Thursday, March 5, 2009

Good morning,

It was nice this morning, I woke up about 9:30 and am pretty clear headed. Doesn't mean I am moving but I was awake which I love.
Yesterday was a pretty good day for me. Michelle and I cleaned our first house, the first of many we hope. My energy was good (my time of the day) my legs, hips and ankles hurt but I was excited to be doing something. Making some money!!!! I kept going until we got home from our marriage class. I was so ready to crash when I got home...very very tired (I wanted to sleep so bad but waited) and my whole body was hurting. I think I did pretty good though. My ankles and feet have been hurting more lately, not sure why?? As well as my hips????
I am sooooo looking forward to this weekend....WARM WEATHER!! I am hoping to do some yard cleaning and bike riding. Open the windows and do some cleaning.....did I say WARM WEATHER!!!!
Oh snap, can't keep my eyes open!! I am going to take a shower and run a few errands. This has taken me about 45 minutes to type
Everyone say a prayer for Maggie White. I spoke to her this morning and she doesn't think she will make it another week. Rob got called out last night to West Virginia and she is putting herself on bed rest. I am going to be taking her to her doctors appointment tomorrow. Can't wait to see what the doctor says.
I am going to stop by Planet Fitness today and see what kind of deals they have going on. I have GOT to get back into working out, I know it helps in sooo many ways! Exercise is one of the best things for fibromyalgia.
Very little stomach movement!
Have a great day

Last night was a pretty hohum night. I was just kinda blah, trying to ignore the hurting! I will be glad when this week is over....my energy level has been zero and I have not gotten anything done. It is driving me crazy!! I feel like such a fat slob to be honest! I am just waiting for someone to say just get going then I will scream!
I did wake up with a pretty clear head this morning, that is a great thing. I'm going to be leaving the house in a little while to help Michelle clean a house. I am so excited to be doing that! (does anyone need their house cleaned? we have great rates) I am going to pace my self today and hopefully it will be the start to my upward swing. My upper body is hurting today along with my legs and feet. Right now it is about a 5. I am just so happy to be doing something, just don't want to start falling asleep...I would love a massage all over my body, I soooo wish insurance covered it. For fibromyalgia I think it should. I would also love a nice WARM pool to swim in. That would feel awesome right now...I can just feel the warm water soothing my body and taking all my stress away!!!
Well, I am off to take a nice warm shower and get ready...
For those of you that are wondering, my stomach problem is still there...very little movement! I am making a doctors appointment for my female doctor today and will be discussing with him as well. Have a great day...I am done rambling.
P.S. My memory is really starting to make me mad! I am not a dummy!
Also leave me a comment sometime

I wish I could just once wake up and be energized! Like when you wake on a spring day and the smell of fresh cut grass is in the air...you just jump out of bed and feel GOOD!! I can remember what it feels like.......I actually get a nauseous feeling sometimes thinking about it!
I think I need the tanning bed....anyone want to donate a tanning bed to my cause??haha
I truly believe the the heat would be awesome for me!
My back is not doing so good today and my feet hurt. I am as always feeling tired...so making myself do this, type....this has probably been one of my worst weeks as far as getting things done..I hate it.
I am hoping to take Maggie for a walk this afternoon with Mellissa...

I am loving the snow! Wish I could build a snowman with Jim...hint! This has been a pretty low key week for me, not much energy or desire to do anything.
I read the carepage web pages again and could so relate to much to what everyone is saying..I am not crazy! I talked with Michelle last night about starting a support group and I am going to check into it again. I realize after reading all the blogs last night and today how it helps. I can only imagine how it would be to talk it out with other people who have fibromyalgia.
My legs today are about a 7 on a scale of 1-10 today. For some reaon I have pressure on my chest today...I feel like someone is pressing down.
My arms are heavy and they hurt...that could be why I am putting off ironing???
I HATE NOT GETTING THINGS DONE!! IT IS SOOO NOT ME~~

I am sooo happy!! I have found a new website called carepages and there are people on there talking about their symptoms....extreme pain, extreme tiredness, feeling like you have been hit my a mack truck in the morning, fibro fog, forgetfullness, ibs and several other. It reminds me I am not crazy!!
JUST TO LET EVERYONE KNOW FIBROMYALGIA DAY IS MAY 12th
This past weekend has been pretty o.k.. My energy level has come and gone.I have not gotten much done except a little ironing and rearranging of dust! I just don't have any get up and go. I am making myself type this, my eyes keep closing. My arms feel they have weights hanging off of them. We did go to the matinee yesterday, we saw, Taken. It is a pretty good movie. Came home and layed around the rest of the day. Same for today...we went to church, had lunch and have been laying around ever since.
I have every intention of ironing but just can't seem to get up. Most people would think, just get up. Well, it is not that easy!! As I have said before think back to your worst case of the flu where you just had no energy and COULDN'T move. That's me!! I DON'T want to just lay here, I want energy to move!! My neck and shoulders feel like they are so tight, they could pop or break if I move them the wrong way...My legs have been up and down on pain. At times they were a 100 and others a 4. I would say never below a 4...I always know they are there. Sometimes standing hurts, sometimes sitting hurts. I am going to finish now and take a nap. It has taken me roughly 40 minutes to type this little bit.
