I will admit that some of these were and ARE overplayed, but two of them remind me of my seven-year-old son and his football team all in oversized, shoulder pads and dancing in the end zone!!!
That was such a great time! Here are the two songs:
Whenever I hear either one of those songs, I see my son dancing in the end zone with his friends at Dearborn high school and I love it!!! Dearborn Lions-Silver!!!
This was all back when I could still enjoy watching football. #MSsucks… 😒😒😒
So, my shoulders feel funny! It took me a minute to realize, but my shoulders felt like this when I had Sean. Anesthesia does not work with me, but I had to do what I had to do, but this is not my choice as Sara aptly states:
I’m so grateful that everything is over for July. Now, I will wait until August 5 to get my eyes checked by my optometrist. It is my hope that he will explain to us what Dr. Bansal found as my neural ophthalmologist! There was a whole bunch of scans and he knows what he’s looking at!
so here’s the deal, lately, I have not been able to watch Hallmark movies after I am dressed and ready for the day. I have definitely slowed down even this morning! It is killing me to not have supplements and now I know that they do a whole lot of stuff for me!
We watched, Holday in the Wild, the other day and we watched, A Castle for Christmas and on this viewing, I heard this song:
I was recently listening to Third Eye Blind, specifically the song and the album I was listening to my first night at WMU. So I heard the specific song and then I let the album play. I know all the songs because I used to sing them!
I was specifically thinking about this song because it has been 10 days since I have had supplements. Oh, I am feeling it, to say the least!!!
My friend, Jonathon, said that you know you are old when you listen to songs you grow up with when we worked together. Well, I know I am older, but it’s interesting that a song I jammed to when I was 18 doesn’t it hit the spot for me now. maybe I’m just old and sick now…
My procedure is Tuesday and after I have it, I will begin taking them again and I’m so looking forward to it!!!
I just found the clip of the song that she sings at the end and so many years later, it still gets to me! I was so dramatic! I just can’t forget that. It makes me shake my head now but I still smile a little bit:
I am listening to Gavin Degraw right now and as soon as I heard the opening bars of this song, I immediately got extremely vivid flashbacks of both of our apartments!
You know, back when I still could drive and get around on crutches or even a manual wheelchair. It’s summertime and my apartment is clean.
Today, this evening, I was able to stand up fully when I transferred. Finally! It has taken me five days for this! What was I thinking?!
I am getting my teeth cleaned next Tuesday and then the following week, I am going to the doctor to get my calculus removed. I may be under for two hours for this one.
They are going to call my Mom to reschedule my colonoscopy and endoscopy. Like it is not super hot outside?! Seriously, what was I thinking?!
I have been thinking and, I should just let myself cry in recovery! That probably would be better! It was crazy to wake up crying and not understand why but now I know why and I’m just going to let myself cry. And this song popped into my head that ABSOLUTELY shows my age but I don’t care:
I had reposted a previous post that I had written that I take 42 supplements a day. I am scheduled to go back to see Dr. Clark in September. He will change them if need be then.
Okay, yesterday I had my two procedures. Leading up to that, I had to stop all of my supplements for seven days prior. Let me tell you that that was so rough! I stopped taking them on Monday night, Tuesday afternoon, it felt like I was drunk. By Friday, it felt like I had a urinary track infection. Sunday, my head was in a jar of water! I couldn’t wait for Wednesday!
So, Tuesday night, I did my preparation for the colonoscopy. I opted to take the pills. All I can say, is that I am NOT a fan to say the least!!! it didn’t even work! I have to have a repeat procedure. I threw up three times while taking the pills! Barb, my nurse said that it wouldn’t be clean. It wasn’t. That stinks!
I have said it so many times and it is a known fact that I am a ‘rule follower,’ and I followed those directions to the T but it does not work for someone who has had MS for 24 years! I know that now!
So, the colonoscopy had to be aborted, but my endoscopy showed that I have gastritis. Wait. What? So of course I Internet search!ed, something I absolutely abhor, but I did it anyway:

I stopped drinking in 2009 but I did start taking Motrin 800 every night in 2018 after my second knee surgery.
My Mom picked up my prescriptions from Meijer today as well as multiple supplements from Zerbo’s. I’m tackling this with both Eastern and Western medicine like I always have done with my MS.
She brought in a big bag from Meijer and four different supplements from Zerbo’s. It was a lot! It took me a minute to sort out what I need to add to my daily vitamin dosages.
Sh also picked up my new preparation for the rescheduled colonoscopy. It was 2 4 L empty jugs with powder in them. This new preparation is a two day preparation and I need to stop eating solid food two days before I start that. they will call my Mom to reschedule. I’m not looking forward to that! So again, NOT a fan to say the least!!!
A Pet Shop Boys song popped into my head when my Mom brought the things from Zerbo’s. I didn’t even know it was a Pet Shop Boys song. It wasn’t one of my songs, but I remember hearing it. And my Mo me and I listened to it and she said that it came out in 1984. So I must have heard it somewhere, the dentist,or in the back of my Mom‘s station wagon? Anyway, it’s in my head again right now:
I haven’t posted a Rando tune in a long time. The last one was a Christmas song on January 9. But I thought of this one today because I was thinking of my high school days and I remember jamming to this song with my friend in the car, with the windows rolled down:
