Hi Friends, let me introduce you to my grandson
I know, Right?! He's amazingly adorable. LOL. Jack was born on 2/24, weighing 8.12 lbs and a whopping 22" in length. I'm smitten. Everyone is doing very well.
Slowly, I explore the boundaries of Fibromyalgia. It's my daily life. But it's ok. I don't expect much and am very proud of myself when I'm able to get something done.
Words are interesting.
Words need to be containerized. They become unruly. The steady stream of words flowing in and not containerized in any kind of order is a plenty big mess. It's raining wild words and they're wily critters.

Oh my friend I miss you. Congratulations on your grandson. Love you

Congratulations! I am so happy for you all. Mr. Jack is adorable. I am so sorry about the fibromyalgia. It is an evil condition. My favorite Aunt was diagnosed 20 years ago and I've seen her struggle between being her happy outgoing self and accepting the bad days. It isn't easy. Sending hugs and much love. You are so dearly missed.

We all miss you too. Fibro is not a pleasant disease in any way!! Just takes all the strength to just get out of bed some days.
I am so happy for you now being a grandmother, its a special time :)
Gentle hugs from Victoria, BC

Congratulations on the bonny grandson and commiserations on the fibro! I am learning about hypothyroidism and the disaster of being one of the few more profoundly affected by a shingles vaccine! Be kind to yourself and enjoy the good!

Well, Jack is just about the sweetest thing! Congratulations! My grandson will be 26 yrs. old next June. Yikes! Sorry about that lousy fibro. Feeling sick makes art take a sideline sometimes and I know you must be missing the joy it brings you when you're creating. I've never met you but I've missed that happy feeling you share with us here... that special thing you have that has made all of us feel as if we knew you personally. Do what you have to do to stay well.

What an adorable little boy, Diana! It is great to have a new member of the family, isn't it? So sorry to hear about your fibromyalgia. Hang in there and do what you can when you can. You are missed so very much!

Jack is quite the cutie. Speaking of words, what will Jack call you? Grammie? Nana? Grandmother? “Containerized” is a wonderful word when applied to our plethoras of art supplies. I miss you, too, but I know where you live so I just might show up on your doorstep one day😄

Hi Nanci, Thanks! I'm learning about taking it one day at a time.
