Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends and family!!!
I have so much to be thankful for . . . .
1. supportive friends and family who are willing to walk with me through my journey
2. a supportive medical team that includes residents, an occupational therapist, a psychotherapist, a rheumatologist, an internist and a naturopath
3. waterfit and yoga instructors willing to modify so that I can continue to participate without huge pain and fatigue
4. medications and supplements that work part of the time
5. and most of all, I have God on my side, leading me to the right people and supports.

not
Fibromyalgia is not who I am but something I have. It's like having a cold or having cancer. It's a diagnosis that I attempt to manage. It may or may not go into remission. It may or may not get worse.
I am Rita . . . dreamer, creative, gentle, animal-lover, joyful.

Beginnings
I decided to create this blog because so many people have told me that I could become a motivational speaker but I'm not sure I"m ready to make any speaking commitments. Apparently I am an inspiration to lots of people, simply because I have been able to put a positive spin on my life. So each post will focus on a different topic, dealing with fibromyalgia, and how I see it making a positive change in my life.
Honestly, I am a bit nervous about starting this blog. But I am also excited about it. It is difficult for me to start something new but once I get going, I usually get the hang of it. I'm not sure how others are going to respond or how I may take their responses. Or maybe it will be a lack of responses that affects me more. Not knowing what to expect . . . . that's the challenge. But hey, if we didn't start anything new from time to time, there would be no growth in certain areas of our lives.
What was your newest adventure? Has it happened lately or are you stuck in a rut? Tell me your stories. I'd love to hear them!
