cold again

Well, the temp took a dramatic drop downward and it is snowing lightly. I did not want to get up and work today.  In fact, I was wishing that my legs wouldn't work because I did not want to work! How pathetic is that?  I am super tired again.  I was feeling so good and proud of myself for two days on the treadmill.  Ah well, it happens.  I think I just got to liking the time at home and didn't want to face reality again.  I made it to work and my legs are working fine.  I am achy but no foot drop. 
Read an interesting article in the Denver Post about a local uranium mill.  It has contaminated ground water in the past and the EPA has been on their case.  The article states that a local doctor has sent cases up to the state public health agency as he feels they are a product of contamination.  Some are neurological problems. I will talk with my doc about that today.  Who knows.  At least it is another avenue to pursue instead of waiting on MS lesions to appear.  At this point, I want to cover every possible lead.  However, I am not sure my doc would even know where to begin looking for contamination poisoning.  He may have already covered that as far as I know.  I know 20 years ago the mill had lots of ground water contamination and the contaminated water ran right into the Arkansas river as well.  I grew up on well water and in the 80's the water became very bad. It smelled and was not clear. We stopped drinking it, but still used it for shower and washing dishes, etc. 
Well, hope all in the DS community have a great day!

I understand about not wanting to go in work. I really did not want to get up. I am so tired of being tired. At this point you never know what could cause all these health issues. I do hope you will get some answers.

Were the kids glad to be home again? Have a good day.

yes, the kids are always happy to come home. They dislike their stepmother a lot...she makes my kids sleep on the floor of the home while her kids sleep in beds in their own rooms. She makes Snow White\'s evil stepmother look tame! LOL

The water situation sounds like something definitely to look into. Hope soneone does. I feel so sorry for your kids. Maybe Your X and his new wife should sleep on the floor and offer their bed to your kids. :)
