Exercise and Me

I have been having a hard time with my fibromyalgia lately. I hurt. I had been working out with Jacob, who is going to play football when school starts. It is hard! Today, I could not do hardly any of the exercises. I just am in too much pain -- even with Darvocet and Fexeril. I wish I could afford to go to the chiropractor, as it was really helping me. I saw Roseanne at Dr. Ron Archanati's Sports Medicine office. I really am trying to press through the pain, but it is really difficult. It takes all of the energy I can muster. Even two hours later, my muscles are quivering, and I am more than maxed out on pain medications. I still take them. Seriously thought about the ER, but don't have the money. So frustrating.

If fighting the pain and the tiredness isn't enough, I am trying to pack up the basement. Mark scored some free floor covering. The boys are helping, but we just really don't have anywhere to put anything. In addition, I am trying to go through things for a yard sale on Saturday. We just have to have some income.
