If I were a horse.....
If I were a horse, they would shoot me.....or make glue out of me. Be prepared, this is simply a "Woe is Me" blog posting tonight.

I am struggling with what has been deemed fibromyalgia, this is not something that is condusive to raising four very active children and being a pretty active person myself. I can't sleep, hurt just about everywhere and get frustrated when I have no energy to live life the way I am used to. Add to this the chronic pain from injury related arthritis and I swear I am 93 instead of 33.

My heart is breaking for Jewl's SIL Kari. They are dealing with a painful miscarriage and are hurting so much. I have never met Jewl nor Kari but I share their pain and ask that if you pray, that you say a special prayer for Kari and her husband Ian and their families. She is a stranger, only known to me thru blogging, yet I hurt for her because of the common bond of losing a child. I hate that I have to share that bond with anyone. God does have a reason for all things but it is not always revealed to us immediately. We lost our baby in April 2003, at that moment I was so angry that I would never believe that their could be any reason for this loss. God's reason was revealed on March 30, 2004, his reason wreaks wonderful havoc on all of our lives here in our household and gives the best sugars. God gave us Lillianne to help heal the pain and I take great comfort in knowing that her brother or sister is sitting on God's knee right now, keeping a loving watch over their family. Someday we will meet, my sweet angel, thank you for the brief time that I carried you here on earth, I will carry you forever in my heart. Kari and Ian, my prayer for you is that you are able to draw each other close and heal and then that soon you will be blessed again.

'Nite Internet!

My step mother has that and it's really hard on her too. I'm sorry you are going through it as well.
As for Keri, my heart is broken for her. I've never felt that kind of loss, and I can't imagine what it must be like.

Just remember, chocolate is the best medicine. So grab some of the good stuff and snuggle under the covers for a while.

I saw Kari on Sunday Dottie and although I didn't want to upset her, we did talk a bit about what happened. She is doing better and I think they will try again after healing both in in body and in their heart. Nobody deserves this, I am sorry that you went through this as well. I know they will make awesome parents and when the time comes for them it will make it that more special. I just wanted you to know they are doing better... I hope you feel better soon as well!
