#MyGirlL switched vets today. She has been having such skin problems for so long. The prednisone was proving to harsh on her organs so she was pooping blood. It was BEYOND scary!
So, her new vet is, AW Animal Hospital. She has been pink for the past two days, which has not set with me well at all because I know it hasn’t been comfortable! It hurts! My Mom asked why she is pink and he said because she is ‘inflamed.’
So, he gave her an injection and she is not scratching right now. I was so afraid and this is so promising!!!
She will have another appointment in three weeks. We talked to Sean as my mum was putting my socks on, and I told him that this is so promising because I was so afraid for her!
So, you know this song is in my head and I have to tag my sister-in-law and my brother by posting this one:
Disease progression with MS absolutely stinks!!! it really stinks this far into the disease!!! I’ve been drinking my breakfast for a number of years. I don’t mind it. It’s difficult to swallow that early for me anyway.
Well, I no longer can open my nutrition shake on my own. You know, when you are opening something and that little piece of plastic needs to be broken. Well, that’s too much for me now!
I am extremely happy that I got my mom a can opener for Mother’s Day a couple years ago. I got it for her because she said opening things was getting difficult. I’m glad this tool helps with what I needed for now.
Looks like that ability is gone for me now too. It is never coming back. That is a fact I am desperately trying to get okay with. I have to. But you know what was in my head this whole time as I grieve my ability:
in 2002, when this song came out, I was in college, on Canadian crutches, still driving, and thinking my life would turn out differently than it has. #ItSucksToSuck!!! #MSsucks!!! 😒😒😒…
I became a member of the ‘virtual front pew’ on week 17 of Ordinary Time 2021. I go to mass each week in my living room now. I used to just watch it on my phone. Something that I have known since I started going to mass here is that Fr. Mike is my contemporary. I think he’s three years older than me. He was 45 when I was 42?
I am on the fifth time going through the Bible a Year and I have just begun the Catechism in a Year and I really dig his message and most often; I cry. It’s cool though because I’m in my house by myself. I also will listen to his homily and Hallow multiple times before the next weekend.
I have already listened to this homily three times so far. But I am crying for a different reason. He talked about a Sia song that came out when I was still teaching and I was teaching Reading in my third classroom, which was a converted closet adjacent to the cafeteria, which was used as our gymnasium for PE classes.
The sixth graders played dodgeball on Friday. Something that everyone needs to know is that sixth graders at CCA understand that they are better dodgeball players if they scream so they all screamed at the top of their lungs for the entire class. Not a great thing when I am trying to teach kids to read on the other side of the door.
Fr.Mike referenced this song:
I really dug that week for Ordinary Time was the Beatitudes! Here’s Fr. Mike’s homily, which got me thinking:
I had never heard Sara Bareilles’ rendition of this song, but this song means so much to me because I heard it 1 million times every day well sixth grader graders screamed I was teaching!!!
A couple things I need to say before I post this video, it’s from her little black dress tour. I love that song! Absolutely love that song!!! I will put it here just so I can hear it again:
I never saw that video of her on tour with that song over playing what was going on. It puts this next video into context a little bit:
I’ve bawl my eyes out each time. I watch this rendition of this song. I think that it’s a bit cathartic, but #ItSiucksToSuck!!! #MSsucksTwentyFiveYearsIn!!! 😒😒😒…
So, I heard this song a few days ago and it reminded me of a summer festival at Saint Alphonsus. I think I’m in fifth grade. My friends and I went to the gym because there was AC there! I remember dancing like crazy to this song and my friend also had brown eyes so it was fitting. I have no idea what made me think of this. But I’m liking remembering it:
It’s a very January movie to watch (because of the turkey curry buffet) and I tried watching it, but it was not available anywhere unless I bought it so, maybe next year. But I really liked hearing this song!!!
I got all 3 doctors appointments done. This was so difficult!!!! I have to ‘splain ya about my bone density test, once I am recovered. But it got done!
I got all three appointments done! I talked to the podiatrist for the first time and that’s interesting. I met virtually with the pain clinic so hopefully my leads and tens unit batteries will keep coming as per my lawsuit settlement, and I had my bone density scan. I don’t have to leave the house until February 18. I’m hearing Dave right now:
I feel the crash and I am so excited to sleep!!!!!!!!!
Man, I am exhausted!!! I have one more day though. I am getting a bone density scan tomorrow at 3:30. I’m pretty sure that I have osteoporosis in my left hip as well now. I’ll find out tomorrow and I will speak to the Endocrinologist about it next month.
I heard these two songs while waiting to get my haircut nd I really dug them! It’s from past life and one that is kind of difficult for me to remember. I used to be able to carry a tune!?!…
This first one I was in college, undergrad. I think I was smoking around this time for a short bit:
I watched this video probably four or five days ago and I didn’t want to share it because I watched it and felt COMPLETELY ATTACKED!!!
I want to first start off by saying that we had a wonderful Christmas! It was so laid-back and Sean liked all of his presents! I thought that I would just not think about this video ever again, but I have to share it here because what he said, cut me straight to my heart!!!
And it didn’t happen once, it happened for all three songs that he despises!!! I felt so attacked. At first, when I heard it, I thought, Wait. What?!
here is the video:
Everyone in my family knows that this song is ABSOLUTELY my favorite Christmas jam! It’s not Christmas until I hear this song!
I have been a member of the virtual front pew since week 17 of ordinary time of 2021. I watched Fr. Mike every week for mass and I listen to him every day when I’m reading the Bible. I am going to go on to my fifth time next year and it is so wonderful!
I have listened to his homily every week and I thought we are almost contemporaries. I think that he is five years older than me.
I havewatched videos from Fr. Mike all the time and I thought this one looked fun with his Christmas coat. I was not expecting what I heard!!!
I told my Mom about this a few days ago and she couldn’t believe it either. I told her that he says it is just a break up song and it’s not even a Christmas song. I looked at my Mom and said, “Have you seen the video?!”
It is completely a Christmas song and my favorite one! I will put it here just to have it one more time before the end of the season:
