That damp weather is the worst for staying warm. Sorry you've been having so much rain. I'm sure we will be in the same situation not too long from now. Our fall weather is usually very rainy.

we have had a lot of rain too..it was damp and 48 when i woke up this am so i turned my heat on..felt good
 
camping, what is causing your bone degeneration?  Is there a cure?  I have what I think is plantar faciitis, but between you and granny, now I am wondering if it might be something else.  Arrrrgh.  Hate the doctor.  Hate being gimpy all the time. 


I spent a ton of money on a nuclear bone scan to tell me there were "degenerative changes" in the bones of my feet. I could hardly walk last winter. The doc didn't even call me in for a follow up; the nurse told me this over the phone. I asked "so what now?" thinking like supplements or something. She said "take Aleve for pain."

I took an intense round of vitamin d and that seemed to help. I had a significant deficiency and that affects calcium absorption, right? I think that's what I remember. Giving up the cutesie cardboard-soled shoes helped too. I think my worst probs came from walking on large gravel in cheap flats; I thought my heels were fractured, but no breaks on the scan. So must've been just bruised.

All of that to say: foot probs are no joke.

Wonder if it has something to do with the weather & the seasons changing granny. I have problems with my depression getting worse as the days get shorter. Doesn't matter what I try to do about it, its just that way. Some days that's all I can do is cry.
SAD seasonal effective disorder yes, I was but its too early for that
Since I'm so good at diarrhea of the mouth, yet have been around living life with it's challenges for a while, could I suggest we might consider it the dirty D word? Depression? Nothing we can "snap" ourselves out of? Sometimes it's seasonal, sometimes it's a lifetime struggle. When you've been working hard to stay out of a funk, find a happy place, life happens and bingo, your knees got knocked off. IMO, folks try so hard to be funny and liked, not offend, bury the frustration, but sometimes, just get upset! Don't want to gauge words to be sure they don't hurt feelings. IMHO, I'm a newbie talk-a-lot here, pretty clear that I'm a nuisance pest, but this is Granny's thread. She should be able to speak her mind.
