I swear I'd feel better if I could just break something. Too bad my arms have been too weak lately for me to carry through with it. It's probably for the best. I really like my red plates and they're the most tempting for me to throw across the room! Do you ever get so frustrated and fed up that you just want to smash something? I hope it's not just me!
This past week has been filled with ups and downs and new symptoms. It's so strange to me how I keep going from symptom to symptom. I can not wait to get to Mayo in April so we can hopefully figure this all out! Some hours my arms are so weak, I can barely lift them. Simple tasks like running a wash cloth across the table make my arms burn as if I'd just done one hundred push-ups! A couple hours later, they'll be fine and I'll be able to pack a laundry basket up the stairs. I just don't understand it!
Two days ago a new symptom appeared! It's not the most troubling symptom in the world, but it's annoying! A toe on my right foot won't stop twitching! Now, before you roll your eyes or double over laughing, really think about it! It was twitching so bad last night, I couldn't sleep and today my entire foot/ankle area is sore because of it! Urgh!! Really? As if the racing heart, head pressure, ringing ears, stomach aches, and cold sweats aren't enough, now my toe has to twitch! OK, now I'm laughing too but it's really not that funny!
At least I woke up to a blizzard this morning (see above picture). The dreadful weather matches my crappy mood! It also makes it easier to be stuck inside. There is nothing worse than being stuck on the couch when the weather is gorgeous. When you wake up to wind and snow, it doesn't seem so bad! Sorry for the Debbie Downer post. I promise tomorrow I'll be back to my normal, spunky self! :-)

for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
