Keeping My Fingers Crossed

May 13th, 2009

Tomorrow, I am going to a new neurologist that I’ve had to wait for two month to see. I hope that she’s worth seeing. I sure do miss my old neurologist, he was a great doctor. Its ashame when good doctors leave. I am crossing my fingers that I won’t be dealing with another quack because I’ve had my fair share of them. The 100 questions I’ve had to answer on the patient questionare are crazy. The biggest problem is the amount of space they give you to explain everything. And a last note I hope that my pain level will be better tommorow I’ve been going throught hell with the pain.

Looking Good in the Sun

May 8th, 2009

Summer is right around the corner and it’s a pretty exciting time for me. The gloomy days of winter are gone for now. Most people are buying new swimsuits, boats and barbecue grills for summer. This year, I need to buy a new bathing suits for the upcoming season. I want to buy a one piece suit instead of a two piece bathing suits. Finding a bathing suit that’s comfortable, colorful, and stylish and just the right size are important to me. Since I have lupus, I have to swim at my local YMCA that has an indoor pool. I am sensitive to the sun so I can not spend much time outside. When I spend time outside I have to wear the highest SPF rated sun block that’s sold over the counter. Being able to swim is something of the past, but it’s nice just to wade in warm water. I really miss the times when I could enjoy swimming in the river with my family. Now I enjoy wading in the pool while my daughter swims her heart out and doesn’t want to get out of the water even when her lips turn blue. I know its time to get out of the pool.

The Writing Process

April 23rd, 2009

I haven’t wrote much lately except for what I had to write. I’ve been busy working on my book and Its been pretty mind boggling. I’ve looked for books to help me in the process, but their are so many books on writting that I don’t which books to buy. I cannot afford to buy so many to help me with my writting process. Where I am really stumped is being descriptive enough so the reader is able to visualize what I’m writing about. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. I’m not writing about lupus at the moment just a story about a couple.

Looking Stylish During Pregnancy

April 1st, 2009

Being comfortable when I was pregnant was a chore. In my second trimester I found my clothing getting tighter and tighter. I was doing unbuttoning one button to fit into my pants one but that eventually got old for me. I had to go shopping for maternity clothing and it was a real pain finding something that was comfortable and stylish. The maternity clothing just looked horrible. Finding a store with stylish clothing is easier today. It seems the designers have come up with the times. The clothing now comes in a lot of different styles. Everyone has there own style so it only makes sense. Being pregnant during the recession can be very trying. There are so many things to think about. You have to buy new clothes for you and of course the new baby. Finding maternity clothes on a budget is a real help for anyone. I can not imagine being pregant with lupus and chronic pain.
