Day 2, Movie 2 Noelle
Such a fiasco today with me trying to get an MRI. Unfortunately, so much of the world is NOT handicapped accessible; even doctor’s office clinics. A nice decompression of stress is a Christmas movie. I thought this one was really cute! I was able to watch it on Disney+ today. Proved that little sisters can do anything their older brothers can! I really liked it because I am a little sister.
This video popped up in my YouTube feed six days ago and I shared it on Facebook so as not to forget. I haven’t been feeling very well so I just haven’t had the strength to write a post and post it. I am able to do that right now. It’s better late than never and this song reminds me of staying over at my cousin, Melissa‘s (Cheese), house one summer. I can still remember the mirrored doors to her closet.
Day 1, Movie 1: It’s a Wonderful Life.
I started watching this movie pretty early this morning. It did not disappoint! I started crying in the first scene where Joseph is talking to God. I continued crying throughout the movie! I think I will watch a different Christmas movie each day but I won’t rule out revisiting this one!
I will look toward tomorrow to feel better enough to re-publish all of my Christmas Faves for this year. I am thinking about new tunes to add for this year…
My Mom got a fresh turkey this year and she brought it to my house this morning and put it in my oven while we completed our morning routine. Sean watched the Lions game and I was quite optimistic in the beginning but, ultimately, they lost. That really bummed me out!
My Mom took the cooked turkey to present at her house because that is where my family is meeting. I am not feeling very well again today. As we completed our morning routine, I began to cry because this hurts all of the time! I seem to be having a hard time these days. I feel it in my eyes! I have so many posts I need to write for my blog and I am not even able to re-post my Christmas Faves just yet.
I know that is really not a big deal but it is for me. I want to keep my blog updated and I have not even written about Sean’s Ring Day or going to see the movie Last Christmas. I also have 1 million random songs that have shown up on my YouTube feed and I haven’t posted them yet. I just don’t feel well enough yet.. My eyes hurt! It makes me think of the Black Crowes song but I don’t even think I have the strength to post it here yet.
I have never been hit this hard and I’ve had MS for so long time but today, it hurts and I feel it!
Yesterday was a bad day and today it is not much better. I really think this whole MS thing is kicking my butt!
I wrote about my friend Ami texting me funny videos to make me feel better. She lives about an hour away from me so I know that’s the best she could do for me! It was very helpful!
My friend, Renee, brought me white bean chili last night. She knows that I am having issues swallowing as of late and it was delicious! I feel most grateful for my friends! They are looking out for me! It makes me smile and I feel loved!
For some reason, I am singing this song over and over in my head and I specifically think of this version:
I love that movie but after tomorrow, my Christmas watching will begin for the next 27 days, until Christmas.
Two days ago, Jon Bon Jovi was at The breakfast table for two whole segments!
I was kind of surprised at how excited I got for it. Bon Jovi always reminds me of my floor mate, Tonya, at WMU. I tweeted the show and told them to reference, “Make a Memory” but, sadly, they didn’t.
Both Kyle and Peter and even Nate I think referenced a bunch of Bon Jovi songs as they talked to Jan Bon Jovi who is surprisingly is a football super fan! He told them he was going to send over a cheesecake to the studio because it was pretty cheesy. I love, “Cheese” though!
On a technicality, I was inspired to think about this song because of GMFB so, here it is:
This song came out when we were living in our second apartment and it made me think of Tonya back then too! Now, I can add GMFB to the mix!
Yesterday, my replacement ornament arrived. All of this happened because Sean made the phone call for me because I was not able to speak very well. Yesterday, the fruits of his labor were a parent. The replacement ornament arrived!
So now, I was able to add all three of my new ornaments to my tree. And again, when I say, “I,” I mean, my Mom.” I ordered three ornaments this year. This first one is my favorite:
Followed closely by this one because I love elephants and because of that movie I saw with my Mom:
Once we put the replacement ornament on, I told my mom to make them look like they are kissing so this is what do you ornaments look like now even though one has a broken war:
And this last one is fitting because I have already started watching Hallmark movies and it’s not even Thanksgiving?! Things are a little bit off this year because I’m almost finish putting my tree up, I mean my mom is almost finish putting my tree up and this last one is fitting because I have already started watching Hallmark movies and it’s not even Thanksgiving?!
Things are a little bit off this year because MS ain’t no joke and I’m almost finished putting my tree up, I mean, “My Mom” is almost finish putting my tree up.:
The ornament says, “All I want to do is drink hot cocoa and watch the Hallmark channel, the heart of Christmas.”
I’m not feeling well today and my best friend Ami has been texting me fun videos to make me feel better! She sent me this video:
I am not 40 yet but I do have older brothers ( and I am getting close) so I really dig this song! Getting these videos really made me smile! I have so many blog posts to post but I’m not sure I feel well enough to do so yet. In the meantime, you can enjoy this tune just as I am:
I heard the guys talking about this song today and it took me a while to find a clean version of it. I hadn’t thought of it for a while but here it is:
Tonight, I used some of that 2% I feel okay to go with Sean to get our teeth cleaned. How things worked out today was that Sean got his teeth cleaned but I had to reschedule my appointment for January.
As I waited in the waiting room, I texted with my brothers. We are on a group chat and one of my brothers was sending pictures of his vacation. He sent a picture of his view. What has happened is that my other brothers and I will send pictures to the group chat of our view. My brother sent a picture of a beautiful sunset. I sent them all this picture:
I asked the question to the group of who knows where I am at? And my brothers knew where was. Sean and I still go to the dentist I went to when I was a child. I’ve been going there for about 30 years and I had my braces through that office as well. Dr. Meizels was our orthodontist. I let them know that I was listening to soft rock as I waited for Sean. That music will ALWAYS remind me of the dentist! Here is a sampling of some of the music I listened to until Sean finished:
