Well stupid me was guzzling diet A&W root beer and diet orange soda as if it were going out of style due to the dry windy weather here, and then one day I made ham & beans for dinner, then the next day ate greasy fried chicken at a friends house (yuk) and the next day at home made beans and shredded beef tostadas, and all of a sudden Wednesday night, PAINNNNNNNN!!! I thought I was having a heart attack. It was a gallbladder attack, which as JJ told me later, can be just as painful as a heart attack. You think?So all day Thursday I was suffering, ate no food, just broth and water and tea. I felt a bit better Friday, same diet, and was able to meet up with the gang at Ballys on Saturday. I was still dragging and in some mild pain but did eat at the buffet and it didn't bother me at all, in fact I felt much better. So anyway, NO more diet sodas for me. I stocked up on sugar free peach ice tea, diet kool aid in several flavors and of course ice water.
Ladyjane in the spring you may be experiencing a little bit of allergy to pollen etc. Not all people have huge attacks of allergies just minor ones. They know they feel out of sorts but haven't a clue why...

..I read somewhere that the spring is the top season for depressions and..feeling out of sorts. It seems that we sort of expect ourselves to be happy along with the lovely weather..and when it doesn´t work that way..it feels a bit off. You know..I should be happy, but I´m not..type thing.

I'm with you on the Spring sadness thing. It's just that it's kinda weird. I've felt that way as long as I can remember. In fact, 30 years ago I would actually be in a serious clinical depression that would start in April and be at its worst by June. Nowadays I've just had more of an offbeat feeling and been more discontent. It always evens out as weeks pass and doesn't disrupt me a lot. I wish I knew the cause but maybe there isn't a significant one more than it being "just me."

You know, I'm reading your words Humlan, and I have always felt just the opposite with Spring. I've always felt a sense of hope, renewal, regardless of my situation.
With Fall, I USE to have the feelings you have mentioned some have with the springtime. Fall meant going back to school (which I hated) and being closed in the house with four sisters, and so I never liked Fall untill I got older and could appreciate the seasons and the changes they bring.
I'm with Edelweiss, though. I hope you are not sad, and that you find the joy in each day. You are so very wise, me thinks, and I love having you here in this community of women. I don't think you, and some of the others, realize how vital you are to this group of women and our virtual friendships. Be glad you are WHO you are, I know I am glad just because I know you.

I loved turning 50, hated 55, and decided it's wonderful to have birthdays. I'll be 61 in May and proud of it.
As for feeling out of sorts, that happens more than I'd like. I work to turn it around.

Thanks for reminding me how glad I am to be beyond 50 and close to 60. So many things in my life have gotten better over the last ten years. I hope the same will be true for you. Lynn www.writeradvice.com
