I too was inspired:

You might be an adhesion sufferer if:

-your 4 year old knows how to bake a chicken

-your husband has made grocery shopping and clipping coupons a hobby which he discusses freely with your sisters and mothers

-somewhere in your house you have a stack of any of the following to be done on a bad day: macrame, sewing, needlepoint, good books to be read, a list of video tapes for someone to rent for you (seriously though, I have recently taken up jewlery making and it really helps to have a simple enjoyable hobby that doesn't take too much energy to complete)

-a favorite "position" on a bed, recliner, or couch

-a set of "bad day" clothes with elastic waists and worn for comfort not style

-a deep appreciate for every minute you are able to keep up with your daily activities and the knowledge that we can survive no matter what life throws at us!!!!  :0)
