Category: A Bit Of Randomness

This category is full of randomness that really doesn’t fit nicely into any of the categories having to do with my road to walking.

Continuation

Today was a continuation of handling my sh*t. I received a message at 7:12 this morning from Dr. Chamas’ office. I was able to get all the things I wanted done. After I made my mammogram appointment, I called my dentist to schedule my January appointment:

I can’t believe I’m already scheduling 2027 and it’s only the beginning of September?!

I think I can schedule my state ID renewal in October? I will look into that. It is a lot of strange that it’s a continuation of #HMS but I’m so grateful that I can STILL do that. I remember when my mind went blank when I was paying my bills right after I got paid. I stopped doing everything and then I had to break up how I pay my monthly bills so I can keep it straight in my head. I am so painfully aware that MS is a neurological disorder. I feel that now 25 years and nine months in…

Yesterday, I told my Mom that I am getting a little stir crazy and that concerns me a bit. Dentist on the 15th. Get weighed on the 22nd.

“Stare at a Memory”

I was listening to my Gavin DeGraw playlist a while ago. It was still August I think. That first album reminds me of our first apartment. I had just gotten that CD and I listened to it often! I can still SEE my first apartment. I remember that I was more able about it than and I didn’t think I would get to where I am now EVER!!! Back then, I thought I would live a full life and get married and have a couple more kids. That didn’t happen and I’ve mourned that so long ago, but I do live in my memories and I have been for a while:

“The Jennifers are in College?!”

I came across this email tonight:

I wanted to see what it said because I wondered if my name was popular when I was born and it made me think of Dr. DeGregorio when he asked my class that had five Jennifer‘s in it of like 25 people maybe. The Jennifer’s are in college?!

Sure enough:

I read a paragraph after seeing that have of the entire decade was Jennifer:

Mick Fleetwood

Last week, I dropped my mouthguard halfway through pillaging. I have to wear my mouthguard as I distribute my pills because I grind my teeth. I’ve been wearing a mouthguard since 2011 when I sleep.

I thought for a moment because my Mom was sleeping and it was just us two in the house. I still had four pills to distribute. I thought for a moment and decided that I would put my pills in my pill box like Mick Fleetwood:

That’s right, I distributed those pills with my mouth gaping open! I got it done and today, my mouthguard almost fell off of the table as I was drinking my shake between pills. I need that nutrition as I am concentrating so hard on the pill distribution.

Sean was here, but I did NOT drop my mouthguard. I have always dug people’s drumming faces and I think this one was kind of funny. It helped me pillage without grinding my teeth though.

I got my mouthguard in 2011 when I was seeing my MRT (muscle release technique) therapist. I called him my ‘rub-er,’ but he did not like that. I remember going into Parker‘s room and telling him that I have never been in a fight, but if I was, this is what I’ve feel like because I feel like I have been punched in my face! My mouth, especially!

He rubbed my face and I made an appointment a TMJ at my dentist. He was not retired then. I had to pay for it myself! I should have worn my mouthguard after I got my braces off and then I would have had one!
