Sean came over today and we watched the Rams Bears game. It was a good time and I’m glad that they won! It sets up a Sean Bowl next weekend and I’m kind of excited. I’m sure that Sean McVay will be victorious; at least that’s what I hope!

I had a chocolate shake today. I only have two more of them until it’s all Sweet Vanilla Bean.

This is an example of how similar it looks to the Iced Mocha Café flavor:

No wonder my Mom gave me the coffee one. They look the same! But having the coffee one first made the chocolate one not taste so terrible so now for January, I am going to order two chocolate 12 packs. And one 12 pack of Strawberries and Cream because I want to try that out. I know that I will handle it if I don’t like it!

I’m just going with the changes (and there are SO MANY changes) and I need the nutrition so…

Well, I have had MS for 25 years and three days. What I can tell you is that now, 25 years of having MS is filled with involuntary moans. It totally surprised me when it started happening, but it has not stopped in these past three days. My bones hurt! It hurts to move! I am having another bone density scan on January 22.

It’s made me a little bit nervous that I am going to see the podiatrist on January 20. I did that last January, had to make additional appointments off the cuff and 2025 was ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE and my credit card is still recovering!

I just hope these moans are NOT an everyday thing, but it has been for the past three days so I’m not looking forward to days ahead…

I shared this meme on what was yesterday now because it is 12:05 am:

I know exactly what day it is! It was December 27. That was Sean’s due date. I told him that today and he was surprised and said, “My birthday was a long time ago!” I told him that I knew.

It also is my childhood friend’s birthday. Now it 12:09 am. I still feel like it’s the 27th but when I wake up, it will be 25 years that I have been diagnosed with MS.

That fact is completely blowing my mind and I never would have thought that I would be as disabled as I am right now! My head still is swimming, but I’m just going with it. Tomorrow I will be quiet. I always am.

#ItSucksToSuck!!! and #MSsucks!!! 😒😒😒…

I woke up today in the late morning and my head felt clearer than it did yesterday. I am so relieved that I have nowhere to go until January 20. This past year has been absolutely brutal!!!

I did not feel well at all yesterday and I read four blog posts that have stayed in my mind, crystal clearly, for 25 years. In nine days, it will be 25 years. I can’t believe that at all!

I am going to repost those four blog posts because in reading them, I can see everything in my mind still!!! I never imagined that my MS would be where it is today… #ItSucksToSuck #MSsucks!!! 😒😒😒…

Christmas now:

My heart is happy and I am contented.

#Simple Pleasures.

So, my shoes arrived yesterday:

Tree is not finished being put up, but this is the best Christmas present so far because I need it now. These will be my shoes for the rest of my life.

I put them on today when I went to transfer as we were going to get our routine done:

I snapped that picture before we started, and I looked at it and just said, “Yeah.”

Sean came over today and he saw my shoes and he told me, “That’s the smallest box I’ve ever seen! I don’t think I’ve had shoes that’s small!” I told him that he did when he was young. They are size 6 medium. That checks out because I used to wear a size 4 in little boys shoes.

Tomorrow will be their maiden voyage because I’m going to see my naturopath and the next day, we are getting haircuts and going to the lights!

my shoes arrived today. I’m not really sure how I feel about this, but I think it’s the best present because it’s what I need now:

I was looking at the box and I dropped it. My mom is taking care of #MyGirlL right now so…

Tomorrow is ‘go time.’ There are three outings in December. First, I am getting my teeth cleaned tomorrow and I’m getting shoes from Rochester Hills.

Then, next week I see my naturopath and get a haircut. This has been a brutal year! I’m thinking next year will be a little bit easier…

Sadly, I finished my last Ginger Spice chapstick last night. That was my Abuela chapstick! I hope it comes back eventually!

I used a new flavor today. Cranberry Spritz. It’s kind of like in high school when Old Navy used teal and pink as their Christmas decorations. That was weird?! I don’t remember. I was a Junior in high school.

I think that’s what this flavor is like. I could take it or leave it but I’ll finish it before the end of December so then I can try the new Cinnamon Apple Crisp. I think that one will be my post Thanksgiving flavor next year. But the same flavor. Is also titled A Bit of Spice. #Cute

January 1 is Coco Mint because my brother, Jimmy, got me a whole bunch!!!
