Happy Friday All - I hope you are all doing well.

I have acupuncture for my CRPS (complex regional pain syndrome) every 3 to 4 weeks, as needed, and had this past Wednesday. I am having a flare as a result, which sometimes happens, no rhyme or reason.
I slept poorly and have had a slow start to my day.

ate so much ice cream yesterday I have to skip it today.

My husband does a lot around the house and yard. I have to push myself, as I tend to be more sendentary due to chronic pain and depression. I have a daily/weekly "to do" chore list I hold myself accountable for. There are times I can not keep up.

Life sometimes sucks. In the fist half of my life I was a care giver and saw all kinds of human suffering. I gave of myself without abandon. No worry about running out of strength to carry on. Now I am the one "suffering" and this is a hard shift.

Thanks for being here.
