    Serious stress

    I worked hard all of my life and saved money as best I could. Eight years ago I finally bought a little piece of land with a house on it and views of mountains. It is out away from town in a very quiet and peaceful place, where most of the time all you hear is birds and the breeze, which is...

    Shoes for Fibromyalgia

    The only shoes I can pretty much wear now are my comfortable Crocs. I used to wear slippers, boots, moccasins (were my favorite), ect. But now, if I wear something else besides my Crocs, my feet very much suffer from it that evening. At work, if I have an important meeting and have to dress up...
