It might all be Hashimoto’s, but the “brain fog” and muscle weakness at least are notorious symptoms of gluten intolerance.

Wow, that interactive stocking sounds horrible. Christmas in Hell, indeed.

And if your body is fucked up, I can only imagine what mine is. My buttocks are probably malfunctioning like the robot in “Westworld”…must…destroy…all…humans.

Glad your vacation was relaxing…as they are supposed to be. And don’t remind me about turning 34 in 36 days!!

I just started crocheting this week but I have been knitting since January. I wanted to start making some of the cool crocheted dishcloth patterns that I have recently discovered. I love your pattern and the story behind it! I’m going to make it next! Thanks for sharing it!
