I probably wear too many hats-mom to two kids and three cats, wife, veterinary surgeon, borderline insane X-Files fan just to name a few.

Yeah, I wasn’t as impressed by this as I thought I would be. I think I gave it 3 stars?

A special #caturday for Chester who came home today after spending the past 4 days in ICU. He had a parathyroid tumor removed. Hoping it gives him more time with us.

Chester is making the most of my #RA flare. I’m too tired and too painful to do more than alternate between reading, sleeping and watching basketball. #chronicpain

I have RA and every time I start to feel almost “normal” I start back to trying to do everything the same as before I was diagnosed, and then I crash. I think you offer very sound advice, but man, it is so hard to limit myself. Huge struggle

I don’t think people without #chronicfatigue have any clue what it’s like. I feel like I’m weighted down and being asked to walk through a bog for days and weeks at a time. Add #chronicpain to the mix and it’s overwhelming.

I read 15 books in January. The one positive to a bad case of the flu with the added bonus of a nasty #RA flare is that you have lots of time to read 💜📚 #booksky #chronicillness
