Today is Tuesday and I, thankfully, have a reduced flare-up day. I've had quite a week getting used to the idea that the AS (ankylosing spondylitis) is in a semi-permanent stage. I'm at a place with my hip that I'm looking for a cane. Kind of humbling at age 33 but I've found a great support forum that is opening my eyes to this disease! I've been in denial the past 12 years and I have to face it now!!

So what this means, is that my pace may be a bit slower in my creative 'business' on the bad flare-up days and I appreciate everyone's patience if I am a bit on the slow side on some days/weeks. The joint inflammation makes it very difficult to sit or stand for any length of time.

I've got one pink dress almost completed. Finishing touches that I hope to get finished today or tomorrow, but we'll see!
