had a nice conversation with my aunt tonight. i feel guilty that she found out about my health through dad's mass email, but she didn't hold it against me. she's doing better, and is keeping busy sewing and quitling and stuff. her last daughter (my cousin Emily) gets married at the end of this year, and her oldest grandson is engaged. i must get over to see her soon. i'll definitely have them out once i get moved. i'd like to get copies of pictures she has of various family members.

it always boggles my mind how the littlest things can be so big, and vice versa. Since i started on celebrex last wednesday, my normally always-achy joints and limbs have felt much better. i actually thought today "wow, i don't hurt!"!! it's odd. and because every move doesn't make me cringe, i'm actually doing things. the thought of packing up my basement doesn't make me want to cry (as much). for months now i've been avoiding this pile o' papers, and tonight, while on the phone with my aunt, i sorted that pile. piece of cake. really, there was nothing to it. Once i get everything put away, it'll be over and done with, i won't have to worry about losing things in the move, and i'll be all set to keep it up, and the monstrous pile shouldn't appear again.

Wow, you're like a commercial for Celebrex! It is good stuff, isn't it? they gave it to me for my knee a while ago, and it cleared the problem right up.

i feel like a commercial for celebrex!! i've been literally *begging* for a miracle drug of some sort, and i think this is it! As long as it continues to be effective with minimal side effects, i will continue to sing its praises.
