The Bloom is Off

I knew this would happen. It always does. I have a problem with my left leg so I didn't exercise Thursday or Friday. My problem is gout. I have had this in the past and took the medication for years (which is why I got the lung disease so I can't go back on it). So I found some natural "remedies" which aren't helping at all. My leg just hurts. I'm always very good about starting new things but when the monkeywrench gets thrown in, I get off kilter and have trouble getting back on. So I'm vowing to get back on Monday but I'm not trusting myself very much because I know that I need to feel better before I do anything physical. Fortunately, my friend Tina goes to Curves and will prod me if and when I need it (I hope). I think of those fat old royals who had gout from eating whatever rich food they could get and sat around summoning servants whilst their affect limb was on a footstool. I have not been eating any of those kinds of foods so this really pisses me off. I very often have the opposite reaction to drugs so maybe I would to food so I should just go eat all that stuff that's supposed to cause gout. Actually certain veggies were in the "bad" foods group (asparagus, beans, cooked spinach) and I do eat those but I just can't believe they are unhealthy or cause this pain in my leg. I guess I can lay off them for a time while I swallow my celery seed capsules and drink black cherry juice concentrate. It just never ends, does it? I'm just plain pissed off.
