I live on the coast of Washington State and I swear the grey and rain are going to drive me insane before I make it to summer! Every winter my arthritis gets far worse and I swear my joints have visions of sun they send to my brain at night while I sleep! I don't know how everyone else copes with the winter RA blues but besides living in the bathttub when I'm not at work (ah...a hot bath...) and eating brownies (my fave!) I need to come up with some better options! The Travel Channel perhaps?

Thanks for the comment :) I have tried the heating pad, especially on my shoulders when it gets real bad. You have the cold much worse then I do!! We are lucky if we see any snow around here...just 40 degrees and the darn rain. Are you a truck driver? Do you like it? Where do you travel? Must be hard sometimes!! Thanks for the sun! :)
