Photos from Jan 8th

I had a terrible New Years flare. I was in so much pain and it really affected me. When I look back on memories of a bad flare my mind puts a black edge kind of cloudy on the memory. It's painful to even remember. But I did it. We were camping and I hated to hurt so bad. I maybe slept 3 hrs each night. Just pain and cold overtook me. 

As soon as we got home I slept great and there flare calmed. I attribute this to my soft water at home and that my house is warmer than my trailer and also that the flare calmed as I peeled so much in the days following. 

Below are photos I took while on a target run with my kids. 

On a side note we also started our official first week homeschooling our kids. My son is seven and daughter is 4. I have wanted to this since my so was born but my hubby not sure and my health overtook the decision. Now my energy is now used focusing on my kids and not on getting them ready and to and from school. 

I hope this helps in my recovery. 

Day one.
