Project3x5: HOORAY! It's September! It's Pain Awareness Month! →
Did you know that September is National Pain Awareness Month?!?
Even better… do you know that there are a ton of exciting events going on all over the USA (and the web, so no excuses!) to raise awareness & education for the cause and to allow us to meet each other for support?!
Yup!…

Because every week should start off with something beautiful, something blue, and something to inspire and be coveted by you… xx
*Boys, please hang around for this one! I promise, it’s more than just a girly shoe post!
It is my absolute honor to lead y’all to a super fun fashion-image blog I recently discovered. Named MTV fashion and showcasing pieces of absolutely impeccable, yet still trendy, taste; I was thrilled to find it while browsing for something to distract me from my way-over-reactive nerves yesterday.
Now, if you thought that the above-mentioned shoes were something special, you’re in for even more of a treat…
Imagine my surprise when, while navigating amongst a sea of chic, I discovered a teeny, tiny blurb explaining the blog to be run by a fellow CRPS/RSD warrior named, Alicia. Having been born in Paris, but now hailing from New Zealand, Alicia uses the whimsy of fashion as an escape from the fact that, ironically, the disease has taken away her ability to walk at the far too early age of only 15 years old.
She’s beautiful, smart, confident, and has gorgeous taste. Life is cruel, but we are kind. As Spoonies, let’s rally around this lovely lady (whose other blog - a diary of her life with CRPS/RSD may be found here) and show her all the love that we can. x
Loads of love to you all & be well!
Danielle xx
Ps: Although this was not the case with Alicia, should there be another CRPS/RSD warrior/blogger that you think needs featuring, write to me and let me know why! I love hearing about experimental treatments, books, etc. also!
I’m available at: theproject3x5@gmail.com or on twitter at: theproject3x5. Don’t forget that I always love hearing from you :) xx

It’s one of those bad, bad pain days today.
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
Thinking about it though, it’s so wonderful how tomorrow is another day, isn’t it?
It may always hurt, but (fingers crossed), at least tomorrow it may hurt just that little bit less. Enough to get us through and allow us to deal with things just that much easier. :) xx

Happy Feet in Chicago!
I feel as though Chicago is slowly & currently taking the place of home, what with the amount of time spent here for medical treatments and what not.
However, you know what? Looking back on what Chicago has managed to do to my health - that’s kind of somewhat alright with me.
I mean…
Do we see that I’m wearing normal sandals? Or rather, sandals with a little heel, no doubt!
Gone is the era of the public wearing of my sad looking black bedroom slipper things with every single outfit, no matter how bright, how sequined, nor how ladened with tropical flowers (oh yeaaaa, I’m that girl).
Sadly, it didn’t seem to matter to the world that they were oh-so-expensive & UGG’s, everyone just seemed to find them oh-so-overpriced & UGG-LY - which was devastating seeing as longtime readers know my adoration, adulation, & admiration of beautiful footwear.
And what about the color of my feet in this picture? Yes ok, I’ll give you the fact that there’s a slight difference in color (if you don’t know what I’m talking about click here or here for a greater understanding of CRPS/RSD symptoms), but hardly so when compared to this! Or how about this.
I love you Chicago!
Until my next craving of sun, sand, & sea at least. ;) xx

The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.” / M. Scott Peck

“According to Vedanta, there are only two symptoms of enlightenment.. just two indications that a transformation is taking place within you toward a higher consciousness.
The first symptom is that you stop worrying. Things don’t bother you anymore. You become light hearted and full of joy.
The second symptom is that you encounter more and more meaningful coincidences in your life, more and more synchronicities.And this accelerates to the point where you actually experience the miraculous.”
—Deepak Chopra
