OT: Hello! :) | Arthritis Information

We got back from our vacation last week and things have kinda been hectic ever since. We need a vacation from our vacation! The wedding/reaffirmation went well. It was cheesy like no other, but ok. "Sit down, shut up, no pictures - vows - get out."

California was nice and we were able to see the ocean while we were there. It blew me away with how many people were surfing still! It was pretty damn chilly! We also went into the mountains/desert to visit grandparents and actually got stuck up there because they shut down the path down the mountain due to ice and snow. Palm Desert and snow. Not anything I thought would go together.

Anyhow, we had a blast and are still recovering. My older son will be here Friday afternoon and I'm thrilled to see him. We are going to have our Christmas Saturday morning.

As far as the RA goes... ugh and yucky. I spent the whole time in Vegas mainly in a wheelchair. I was in a pretty good amount of pain the whole trip. I'm actually going in to the RDs office tomorrow to have my knee drained. It's crazy swollen and extremely uncomfortable. I started Imuran today and I'm not sure if it's going to agree with me. I feel like crap after taking it. LOL I'll give it some time though.

I hope you are all having a superfantastic and extra-comfortable evening/morning!

edited to add: another picture. can't have too many pictures!! LOL

To be honest...I wasn't sure who you were while reading your post...until I read the "I hope you are all having a superfantastic and extra-comfortable evening/morning!" then I remembered!

btw..beautiful dress!

Hope draining the knee gives you some relief.

HOLY HELL!! NO ONE TOLD ME HAVING YOUR KNEE DRAINED WAS GOING TO HURT LIKE A SONOFABITCH!

Just thought I'd yell about that for a little bit...

Thank you, everyone, for the compliments! I'm thinking about wearing the dress to Walmart. hehe

Hope you're all having a superfantastic and extra-comfortable evening! Hugs all around.

What lovely pictures and couple. Sorry that the knee draining wasn't so great - hope I never have to to that.

Happy holidays!
