I agree. I laughed so
hard...because I wholeheartedly sympathize...I go thru the same thing every
day!
If we cannot laugh at
ourselves, all we will do is cry....I prefer the former....

Grace, you should be a writer. Everytime you voice your
frustrations with this damned disease, you make me laugh. I know it's
not funny but you're such a dear to put it all down this way. Diane in

AAARGH! The day started off semi
bad. Was walking through my bedroom and my toe happened to
touch---just touch---a folded pair of blue jean shorts that I had lain on my
floor. The end result being that I almost tripped and went into a
pinwheel--old arms a flyin'---motion across my bedroom floor, to barely make
it to the safety of the bed where I landed in a very unladylike heap.
Next, it was off the the bathroom to attempt the morning *pee*. Still
being half asleep, I very undecorously flopped down onto the commode, only
to miss it by *half a numb butt cheek*, doing an unceremonious
roll into the wall and toilet paper holder----but (No pun intended.) I still
managed to stay seated. The bath went well. Getting dressed was
another shock. Since beginning the steroids I've gained weight, but
not a huge amount. Still, my underwear (I wear the old fashioned
*Bubba Briefs*) should fit....Right? Wrong! The danged things
curl up in a ball and sit right under my belly----I look and feel like Homer
Simpson. Viewing this in my full length bedroom mirror was absolutely
mortifying. There I was in all of my glory, big ol' belly sticking out
like a five month pregnancy, bird legs with knobby knees, a puffy full moon
face AND the worst part.......the beginnings of a moustache on my upper
lip. I've also lately discovered just the hint of beginning
sideburns. I'm so sad. Before TM/Devic's I was considered to be
a middle aged fox, but now........OH MY! Grace
