When I started the day I was trying to decide on the direction for today’s post when I looked up and noticed that this would be my 100th post.  I know that in the big scheme of things that this is probably small potatoes but to me it is a really big deal. When I began this journey I could never have imagined that I would have 10 things to say about rheumatoid arthritis, let alone 100.  Now I have an abundance of ideas and I find it hard to decide which one to use first.  This has truly been a labor of love.  I realize that this is a small milestone but I would like to take this opportunity to thank every one my readers that have encouraged me and really are the reason that this blog is so successful. I am immensely grateful to all of you for your kind words of encouragement and support. It makes me strive to be a better writer and advocate. I especially want to thank my husband, Eric. It was his idea that I start this blog and it was through his endless tech support and guidance that this was even possible. I also want to thank my kids for allowing me to share a part of our lives with the world that would otherwise remained private.  A special thank you to Nate who has an amazing ability to spell and has become my de factor editor and came up with the idea of sharing my recipes to fight inflammation.
