Well, since I control the thermostat in this house, I am not cold, never cold, and I don't need throws or electric blankets. When I say my body doesn't like the cold, I don't mean I'm cold, I mean, the temp outside (no matter that it's toasty warm inside my apartment), well whenever the weather changes dramatically, like it's been doing, well my whole body goes crazy.

Two days ago, was the prime example. I wanted to commit murder. My whole body was killing me (including my teeth), which baffles me, but then again, it happens to my girlfriend who lives in NJ. Our teeth hurt us at the same time.

She has severe allergies. Yesterday it snowed in the morning, and it was freezing. Then it changed to rain, and all the snow disappeared. This morning, it's all sunny and beautiful BUT because of the change between yesterday and today, my right knee is throbbing as is my upper teeth. I was fine yesterday though. Last night, I was just fine. Went to bed just fine (no meds or anything). I'm not one to take any meds unless I'm dying.

So my body is all about the barometer.

God I hope it either stays 40, or stays 20. But that it doesn't keep flip-flopping.

The odd thing is when it rains, Alan is in heaven and I'm going crazy.

What a contrary thing, this arthritis is.

See, my PN is under control due to good sugar control and my Methyl B-12.

I only wish that my body would cooperate when the weather changes.

I wish I had the moola to move to Arizona where the sun shines 360 days a year.

And I had to laugh when someone suggested an electric blanket. I'm walking around in shorts in my house all the time. And a tee shirt.

Believe me, I don't need an electric blanket.

lol
