There’s a commercial that say something like “This guy almost learned to walk, because someone almost donated money to build a physical therapy center”. That’s the way I feel today, almost. I almost was feeling well enough to go on a trip.

I wanted to take full advantage of my remission while I had it. My plans ranged from traveling, cleaning the house, to even going back to school if the remission from fibromyalgia lasted long enough. It’s amazing how many plans I can make in 11 days of remission.

Unfortunately, I was still so tired. My family had plans to take a trip to DC next week, & I thought I could go with them. This was something that I never would have thought of when I was in a fibromyalgia flare. It was very spur of the moment, meaning very high airline places, but remission only comes along once in a blue moon. I mine as well take advantage of it. Then someone asked me what I would do in DC. I really just wanted to climb in bed & sleep for a week, which didn’t seem the best use of vacation. Since then, the pain has come back & it’s a good thing I didn’t buy that airline ticket. I feel like I have been hit by a truck & then the truck went in reverse & ran over me again.

So the big news is that I almost went to Washington DC. Almost. At least I got to think about it for a little while, which is more than I usually do.
