Weekly Check-In 10-16 December
Heyy Disability Community,
Almost the holidays
Questions
how is everyone feeling as they draw near?
are you ready shopping all bought in yet?
How do the holidays make you feel personally?
How have the past weeks been for you too?

I've just been really tired and I think I've also developed an over-use type injury despite the fact I do little over-use.
I still have a fair bit of shopping to do. I'm not looking forward to going out into the crowds for it, luckily most is done.
I have done zero cooking for Christmas, so that's something that's still on my to-do list.
I like the holidays in general but I find them exhausting and even with lowering expectations I find all the things I want to do for them never gets done.
I was feeling really good until about two hours ago. I had just finished the last of my Christmas shopping, wrapped up the last gift and made dinner when... Then the big flare-up happened and all my Christmas spirit instantly died. :/
Hoping I'll get it back soon though because in general I really love the holidays!
@versatileYard8117 Sounds like you're well prepared for Christmas at least! Hopefully the flare doesn't last long.
@AffyAvo Thank you!!
The flare seems to be over now, so I'm cautiously optimistic and my Christmas-spirit has bounced back!
Hope you're doing well in the middle of the holiday stress, and that you're feeling better! :) (also, hope your holiday-cooking is going well if you've started!)
@versatileYard8117 I'm glad that was a fairly short- flare, hopefully you can get away without any more for the rest of the year!
I haven't started cooking yet, I think it's going to have to wait to the weekend. Hubby starts holidays sooner than I thought, so that helps lots!
@AffyAvo Alright! Then I hope this weekend's cooking goes well for you guys! :D
And I hope you too have a flare-up free end-of-the-year! :)
@versatileYard8117 hope the flare up goes away asap for you and at least your prepared indeed
@CaringBrit Thank you!!
Yeah, the flare seems to be over for now. And hopefully it's going to stay that way too! Hope everything's well with you and that you've had a good December so far! :)
@versatileYard8117 its a tough month for me and ive come down with a cold too
@CaringBrit Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that :( I hope you have plenty of time to rest and drink some tea!
Get well soon!
