Sun is out first time in weeks it's Friday and supposed to be beautiful all weekend. These are times you have to enjoy and appreciate.

Peace everyone....

yes, indeed. but for if one has lupus. i learned about two to three yrs back that any sitting in sun now puts me in full fledge flare up.

rain and cold ache thru every part of my being. but, if i refuse to give in to diseases, and sit in the sun, for half hour, then i cannot move the next day. or two or three. sighs. but, i buy a cool skin cream that protects my skin and gives me a tad of fake tan. I guess we Irish are made for cold and rainy days.

Those of u whom can enjoy the sun, please do. Even if u garden, wear a hat. put on sunblock. and i always suggest people take benadryl and liquid with them if they mow the lawn. a police officer near me died mowing the lawn cuz his wife had no idea that simple benedryl could have stopped his death.

well, i am one party pooper. But, I am a mother. We carry very large pocket books so we have supplies for others in emergencies.

At least the fake tans don't turn one orange anymore.

So sorry Charon I did not mean to touch a nerve or rub it in.. I cannot imagine what you have to go through and you have my prayers. It's mostly cold and raining where I am so I just appreciate a nice sunny day but we rarely get to the point we could actually Tan..  You Irish are built tough though and good people the best...

Peace...

I have a new found respect for you Charon. My ex-girlfriend has Lupus and all though I can never say I know how you feel, I can sympathize with your pain. I remember when she would have a flare up and the pain she felt I would wish that I could have switched places wth her just so she could function. The worst part of it was she was an amazing dancer she trained at the Royal Ballet College in the UK and was a professional working for Cirque out in Vegas when she just couldn't handle the pain anymore. So it wasn't just her physical pain she was living her dream and lost that to. So for you doing what you do is amazing I send you my love and respect. And if you're ever having a flare up or having a crap day send me a PM I used to be a big help according to my ex and I like to think I still can help. Anyway much love and respect for what you do for all of us
