A Blue Tuesday

A Blue Tuesday

I was feeling slightly blue yesterday for no reason in particular. I slept in, not really wanting to get out of bed, but nature called. I did a workout but is was below even my lowest of standards. I just had no energy and I was trying to lift weights. I just had a difficult time with each move even at low weights. I certainly didn’t get any feel good endorphins from my pitiful workout. I got a lot accomplished…

Another uneventful day

Another uneventful day

Another grey day in NY. Not that it actually bothers me but it did help me sleep until 8:45 today. I woke up when my dogs barked and ran off when my aid came in the apartment. I don’t know if that necessarily constitutes watch dogs since they would have probably ran off and been excited by anyone who came inside. Thankfully it was just her and my day began as normal. There isn’t much on the docket today. I…

The day of the stuffing

The day of the stuffing

I hope everyone had a yummy feast yesterday. I had a very nice dinner with my mom, stepdad, sister, brother in law and my daughter. We were a small group but still shared many laughs and lots of love. There were a few things I found humerus because you have to laugh when you have MS: It was the first time I was using the ramp at my mom and stepdads home. There are three ramps in all and the…

A Friday potluck

A Friday potluck

Ok where to start… I took my first dose of Adderall yesterday and I must say by the late afternoon I was feeling pretty upbeat. Today is day two and I honestly have no idea if I even took it. Right now I don’t feel as awake as I did yesterday. I’m feeling wiped out and it’s only 10am. I didn’t even exercise yet. My infusion for Rituxan is scheduled for September 15. I made so many calls to get…

I love my mom

I love my mom

I just hung the phone up with my mom. It’s 9:39 in the morning. She was on her way to a clients house to teach a bridge lesson with my stepdad. Whenever my mom is in her car alone going just about anywhere beyond a five minute distance she calls me to keep her company. We’ve been doing this for years. She use to call me at work although sometimes those conversations in the morning would be cut short based…

A good way to start a week

A good way to start a week

Today is a good day. My dad and stepmom drove up from Florida this weekend. This is the first time my dad has been in NY in years. This will be the first time they are both seeing my condo but more importantly it is the first time I’ve seen my dad in a year and a half. I normally go down to Florida once a year but this year I was in Mexico and it was too much for…

My baby girl

My baby girl

My baby girl left today to go back to college. It was so hard. It was harder this time than it was when she left in August. My house feels really quiet. I know she’s not going to be walking back through the door tonight and I’m so sad. I’m so glad that she loves college. There is nothing I wanted more for her than to have an amazing college experience. She loves Albany most of the time. She’s just…

A crazy story

A crazy story

My stepdad, mom and daughter were having dinner last night. When they came out of the restaurant, there was a note on my mom’s car from a Good Samaritan who saw my moms car get hit and the person leaving the scene. My mother just got a new car not even a month ago. She went to the back of the car and it was all banged up. The note had the license plate and the make of the car….

Overwhelmed

Overwhelmed

This will be one of those rant posts.  I started my day or early early morning waking up from a dream.  One of those dreams where the other person that was in the dream was just mean, hurtful and painful. I woke up and literally looked up and said really.  What am I supposed to learn from that one.  Well it too a while but I did shake off the dream and got up, worked out.  So far normal routine….
