Thing is, I have been talking to some other people the last few days who have taken it, and the nausea, bleeding gums, fatigue, dizziness, etc. all concern me. Not to mention, there's nothing in it to slow the joint deterioration like there supposedly is in the biologicals like Enbrel.

I agree, and on the hands is what gets in my head worse than anything. The general practitioner told me there was no difference in using the eczema lotion I bought over the counter and the topicals he was giving me. Yet it was still spreading. My boss has eczema as well and says she's been worried for years about the arthritis showing up like it is in me now. That's the part I dread the worst. I will have to ask the dermatologist about clobatesol as well.

I have always wanted to stop to see someone's home like your visitors did. Honestly, I don't have the courage to do it. I'm not shy, just don't want people to think I'm a nutter!

Sorry girl I have been so pooped out I haven't posted much. I was just thinking now on a pretty Apron bought a pattern for a smock one that I really liked in the quilting store .. My mom always wore smocks and I think maybe they are a little more comfortable than the ones around the neck? it goes from xs to xxl and easily could be modified to make it a bit larger in case anyone wants one. It has a wonderful work pocket in front from almost one side to the other which I love.. I wear them all the time. Especially when cooking or baking. Boy what a mess my tshirt can get!

I wonder will my partner want something spring like are they a springy happy person? winter like holidays and such or snow and trees and winter wonderland?? or will they want fall/Halloween/thanksgiving colors? I love those colors so much.. then of course we have summer and patriotic and sunflowers and fruits and veggies and oh dear I can't wait to find out! placemats? runners? pretty pretty wall hangings? what will you chose? pick me! I will make you something grand! lol.. ok something good!!! cross my fingers and pray I get it right LOL ok ok I will. So sign up for a bunch of fun here come on you know you want to. You can check out our last swap we had a ton of fun chatting and chatting and even sewing too!

I just signed up for the swap, for something in patriotic colors. I think it is going to be a fun swap, especially since we have until October to finish.
