{ When your body says stop....just listen }

A very non productive Saturday. I had all these plans, these things I wanted to get done.  Then my body got in the way.  More specifically my hands.   I am pretty sure I am getting arthritis in my fingers.  It's been about a year since I first noticed it, it started with one finger, and now I hav…
