Amazing Day! I was on the Archery Field!!

For the first time in 1 1/2 years I took stance on an archery range and I LOVED IT!!!  I have missed feeling the nocks attaching to the string and hearing that "THWACK" when you stick your target. 

I shoot traditional archery- that means no weights, counter balances, sights, NOTHING..just you and the bow and your arrow.  You really have to be skilled to shoot traditional and I can hold my own when I am at the top of my game.

Even though I only got to fling 24 arrows (it got too cold for me) I enjoyed every second of it and I am blessed today!

But after getting home, my body started to hurt.  BUT it wasn't in the joints, it was because I have been sedentary for so long that it hurts to move.  I really liked being outside today and I have missed it.  I am hoping that with the new medication adjustments I will get better and stronger.  I am still on the Prednisone and dealing with the affects from it.  I only have about 2 more weeks of the stuff and hopefully I won't have it anymore.

I really needed today because yesterday was awful.  My heart would just start racing for no reason and I had to have my mom drive me home after we had a lovely breakfast up town.  I was mad, embarrassed, and I felt helpless because I wanted a day where I just did my thing without people being with me.  I wanted to feel normal.

Thursday I go and get the prescriptions and I am making photocopies of them for my disability file and diary.  A FB friend suggested that I get a diary to keep everything in, so that what I did and I took it one step further..I got a  divided file folder for all correspondance and photocopies.  I am making my paper trail to disability.

Because of today, it has really sent my desire to get healthy into overdrive and I am needing to go back to Wal-Mart and do more product research!  OH BOY!!
