Lazy and cold

It's so cold today. The wind is blowing and there's a combination of rain and snow. The weather is really getting to me today. I'm short tempered and moody. Can't stay warm. Have no energy and I ache all over. Hope this isn't how the whole winter will be.

I feel our cold days are upon us here in the northeast. I use a heating pad when I am chilled and a nice soft blanket. Sending you warm and calming thoughts💕🌻

I think they are. Just unusual for me to be chilled for so long. Curled up under two blankets.

Sorry to hear about your mood and I hope it's short lived and improves. We had our first bits of snow mixed with rain early this morning but it melted. If you can, treat yourself with a warm mug of your favorite drink or a bowl of comforting soup.

There used to be a coffee shop in the Mall near us. Can't remember what they called it but they had a drink that was half coffee and half hot cocoa mixed together topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. I will have to get some hot cocoa mix so I can make it at home.

I truly enjoy all the seasons. We've had some unusually warm days lately. Then the cold came in. Probably just need some time to adjust.

Ah Mrspjs Fibro and weather changes aren't our friend.As Imaaan suggested "a warm mug of your favorite drink or a bowl

of comforting soup" will warm your insides and allow you to feel more relaxed

When we're cold, we tense our already tight muscles and begin to ache all over.

Feel better :) xx

I forgot about that. My back is really bothering me. Time to make my winter grocery list. Oatmeal, hot cocoa mix and extra soup.

Hot baths always help. When I'm at my computer (which is next to mywasher and dryer) I throw a big bath towel or robe in the dryer for 10min

It's like heaven when you put it around your shoulders and neck.

It gets me through those cold winter months

Sending gentle hugs from another Fibromite :) xx

Agora, when I worked in childcare, we used to warm the baby blankets in the dryer and wrap the little ones up all cozy. Worked like a charm, they slept like...well...like babies. ☺️

😴 I need a nap. ☺️

It is so cold here, today. Flurries were around and about for most of the morning and early afternoon. The wind was out of the north and it was pretty brisk. The furnace is up and running and I am snuggly and warm.

I like your grocery list, Mrspjsmom. 😉

Fibro and arthritis don't like the cold. My body keeps telling me that. But I am stubborn so sometimes I listen, sometimes I don't. Have you ever tried a scented shower steamer? I know they have all different scents. Thinking about buying or making some.

To me, wind and rain or snow would trigger my inner bear, and I would be trying to hibernate!

I do hibernate 😅
