A little about me

Please bear with me! I'm so very new @ this blogging thing. I don't really know how to use these short cut words except for simple ones like LOL or OMG! I must drive my son nuts when I text him! LOL! SEE!!
Anyway - I'm doing this for 2 reasons. To put a face to Lupus - bring an awareness to it & to force myself to research it & try to make my life a little less painful & better with the info I find. For myself & for my hubby & for my 3 beautiful kids. Maybe someone else who also has Lupus will read all my craziness & laugh or feel better about their craziness!
I have been suffering from Lupus for quite some time now but was only officially diagnosed 3 years ago. It is affecting all my joints right now. Some mornings I can barely move or get out of bed cause I am SO stiff & it is very painful. Some mornings I'm ok & can jump right up but to tell you the truth - I HATE getting up early! I LOVE laying in bed w/ my 2 little ones - you all know JR is way to "GROWN UP" to lay in bed w/ his Mami! LOL! Once in a purple (NOT blue - purple!) moon JR will join us & especially if my dear hubby Chris is off & hanging around. He IS a morning person & has no issue w/ getting up early - just that he NEVER hears the baby wake up! LOL! Quite convenient don't you think! LOL! I LOVE Chris though! He is the most supportive person I have ever met. W/ Lupus you definitely need someone like that.

For now I'll keep this short! (Can you believe that! LOL!) Sometimes I will blog about the kids. Sometimes I'll blog about what I'm feeling. Sometimes I will blog about Lupus & what I know or am learning. Please bear with me. I don't claim to know it all but I want to help somehow to bring awareness to the disease. Please keep reading! Love ya all!
