I know that God has a sense of humor I have seen it in action.  But enough is enough.  First, I've had arthrities since I was in my 20's, loads of fun but I could handle it, then came the BC, ok a bit harder, but grab the boot straps and lets go, then came the vertigo that comes and goes, then the arthritis went to my shoulders and my back, almost ready to throw in the towel but not quite.  Then this weekend he decide I was getting bored and thru in Gout, which by the way is mainly a mans desease, (should I blame my parents cause my name is spelled the male way).  I'm sorry but I have to draw the line sometime and I think its now. I'm at the point where I have to laugh cause I'm all out of tears and since someting is going on from the tip of my head to my toes I'm hopeing he's done too.

Hope this brightens up your day.  We all need to laugh at ourselves sometime.

Laurie

    One of my favorite quotes:

    If you want to make God laugh --- make a plan.

    Not that it fits all the tests of strength He's been placing on you, but hope it would make you smile. 

    Then there was an OLD Ziggy cartoon: he's looking at the night sky and says, God, I know you won't give me more than you think I can handle, but I wish you didn't have so much faith in my abillity to handle all thlis,

    I'm truly not making light of Gods power and I know he won't give you more than you can handle.  It's just my way of handleing it.  tis better to laugh than cry, it takes less energy and I need my energy.

    Hey Laurie, you're right, better to laugh than cry. Sorry you're dealing with such a massive pile of poo. We're here. (((((())))))

    does anyone else have gout who is willing to give me an idea about the foods that I should avoid eating.  I'm running out of options here and am reaching a point where I feel like saying what the heck is the point...can't do this, can't eat that.
