Carpe Diem - Seize the Day

That about sums it up for me today...

I was the bug.

Not a lot of fun in that. 

Although, I did have a lot of fun today. 

Fuzzy had a ball game at noon. 

It was 90 odd degrees, too hot, too humid, too sunny. 

One boy even threw up from the heat.  Not a lot of fun.

They lost, but they really didn't play badly. 

Kathy came up to visit with my sweet little nephew J, who somehow made it through the ball game!  Not easy at 4 years old!  Half the time, Pumpkin was there to help keep him occupied, but then she had dance.

Little J only came for one thing.  The church fair.  And, the fun house!  He remembered it really clearly from last year and couldn't wait to get there and do it again! 

Poor baby... had to wait until 6pm until it opened... all day, he was asking about that fair!  LOL 

Finally, we went and he did get to do his fun house about 7 times!  And, he played games and won some useless goodies to torture mommy and daddy with!  LOL

I forget sometimes, that with the lupus it can really make you sick being out in the sun and the heat. 

Maybe that is what happened to me today, because I really felt badly tonight. 

I did try my best though.  I tagged along with Hammer, and we had a really nice time together.  :)

I also had zeppoles, and they were yummy... another highlight of the evening!

<FONTSIZE=4>Other things were not so good.  I felt sick, my legs were very shaky, and I just felt poorly overall.  Very hard to describe.  I just didn't feel right.  And, that can be so damn frustrating.

Well, tomorrow is another day. 

be well,
Dawn

  Lupus is such a strange disease and seems to hit people in different ways. My daughter had a school mate with lupus so she was tracking it all throughout high school.  I think her interest in such may have helped her to decide to go back to college a second time to enter the nurse's college.  I have heard lots of sun is not good for lupus. I will bet some people have it, especially in the early stages, and just dont know that that they do.  I was so fascinated reading someone's diary a hundred years ago, and it told how this person could not go out in the sun without suffering ill effects and also other symptoms including bouts of mysterious illness and I thought oh my word I will bet they have lupus and they didn't know enough about it then to diagnose. A young woman lives here who is disabled and her cheeks and across her nose are beet red.  I am wondering if that is a symptom.  Gerry

  I love zeppoles. Glad you all had a great day, but I do hope your feeling better. Maybe you had a little too much sun and that made you feel bad. I hope you feel better. ((((((hugs)))))))))
