My feet have been more sore then usual with working longer shifts over the past few days. I got my taxes back today and invested in something for myself before the rest goes towards bills, the sony digital pocket reader! I love it already :) the design is great & it suits my needs perfectly. I already have 10 books on it. Some I downloaded for free & some I paid for. =] I got a fantastic deal at my work (Target) so I couldn't pass it up. I figure it'll come in handy on those days that I'm feel icky and laying in bed for hours. It's so light weight and much nicer then holding books in my hands. I have The Winter Olympics on tv right now, the opening ceremony so far is so pretty! I've never seen an opening ceremony before. I'm so glad I have tomorrow off and can sleep in as much as I want! I hope I get some Enbrel information in the mail tomorrow. My wrist are starting to get sore so this will be a short entry!
Hello Skye, just ran across your blog. I was diagnosed with RA at 44 with severe damage to my hands and feet. I work 12 hour shifts on concrete and some days it is all I can do to walk out the front door to go home. I bought some inserts 3 years ago at Gellco Outdoors. They have a machine that analyzes your feet through pressure and optical sensors and they match your foot with the correct insert. It doesn't keep my feet from hurting, but they do feel better. Any relief is good relief.
ReplyDeleteThe Sony Digital Reader sounds cool, enjoy it.
Thanks for the information, i'll have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteYou are such a trooper! I am in my 50s and have had RA for over 15 years. Like you, I have had my share of joys and sorrows. Keep writing! That is like therapy. All the best to you!
