We had moved into our home in 1989, my wife cried when I brought her up the driveway. The home had been condemned, in fact there were two homes, one had to be demolished, boy did I see possibilities, did I say homes?? much too kind :)

My disease seems to continue to evolve, I was Dx in 1994, at least that is when I had a symptom that tripped me up (literally), My foot drop hit me in Atlanta Georgia at a tradeshow I was setting up for a client. Not so sure now if I had other symptoms surface prior to that but probably so, I dont recall.
Sometimes this evolution is very slow almost at times it seems to be reversing course, and then a turnaround. WTF? Unpredictability is an MS keyword. One day I can wake up full of spunk and feel like I can just walk around, the next day i wake up and I can barely roll out of bed, definintly will not attempt to walk without my walker these days, I prefer to believe that this will turn around again.

ms is full of surprises, never know what a day will bring,however its never boring.and it motivates you to challenge yourself to try things you would never have even considered before.and forces you to treat yourself better, now nothing wrong with that. everyone should treat themselves better, but we are forced to! it not all bad!

I could have written this exact journal one, except for the trade show in Atlanta Georgia and I use a cane instead of a walker, right now anyway.
All we can do is keep on going the best we can and you already know about the attitude part.
I'm having a WTF kinda day myself we all do. Just know that tomorrow is another day and we'll be just fine as long as we keep our attitude in check and thanks to reading all your entries that's exacty what I have been doing lately. So thank you very much! So glad to be your friend.
Love, hugs and cheers,

attitude...sometimes it gets so hard...

Yes!...sometimes it does get so hard...
My mind goes a million miles an hour, always much faster than my body, I often believe that the slower my body goes, my mind does exactly the opposite. So often I bounce from one project to another, starting one then moving on to the next, and the next. The good thing is I am never lacking something to do, another good thing is that I can still think of things to do, so really the ony thing I need to adjust for are my phyiscal limitations. I do love to find solutions, when I solve a problem or a challenge I feel empowered. My next task is to channel that energy. I have been working on a website for a while now, it is starting to develop. I have all of these thoughts, if this works for me or makes my life better maybe others could use it.

Ideas are a plenty in my mind as well. Adjusting to the physical limitations is a task in and of itself.
Channel away my friend.

Tears of joy I'm assuming?
mooseyinn
not then, tears of fright!! my 2nd daughter was 4 months old and did I mention "fixer upper" and I MEAN fixer upper, fast forward 20 years and this little "fixer upper" has become my (our) castle! every day I find something to be grateful for, course I find something thats needs to be done also! arg! fixer uppers, never get bored and NEVER nothing to do! when we had realized our "American Dream" I was still good to go, the original plan was to "flip this house" a couple of years, ahh, no problem, then a few years, then my Dx, ok, plan change.

Sounds like the change of plans turned out to be a good thing and you are enjoying being the King of the Castle.

hopefully I am on the downside of this latest "episode". I guess I caught a "little" cold, holy moses! was I slammed hard, one day I could barely lift my head to get out of bed, I should say "fall" out of bed! lol, went to the GP doc today, some antibiotics and a B12 shot, DAMN!! never had one of those! I like it :). I hope this "feeling better" continues.

I hope your "feeling better" continues too! I might have to get me one of those B12 shots....
