Just thinking about my goal of being happy.  I have been trying to stay positive and have been doing a good job of it most of the time.  I think that lowering my expectations, allowing myself more...

The past few weeks have been pretty good.  I have felt alert, fairly energetic, and joyful.  Then I over did it last week and was pooped Friday night.  And I had commitments on the weekend.  I...

Lately, I have been learning to view myself and this disease differently.  I am training a new teaching partner  (I teach Elementary PE) and as I shared with her the reason for going into teaching,...

Despite the hot and humid weather, I have been feeling good.  I teach outdoors (PE) and I have had some trouble with my leg, however I haven't been exhausted.  Yesterday I even went to the Gym....

Every day is different. Today my body feels strong despite my limp and the injury I incurred when I stepped on a rake. I t is nice to see other peoples journal entires. People who are going through...

This is my first journal entry.  I keep thinking I can do this without outside support.  My husband is terrific, but I think this disease and what it is doing to me is difficult for him.  Today I...

What an odd thought, discomfort can be a blessing.  My job has been so supportive of all the physical changes.  Today was the first day of school.  In case you did not know, I used to teach...

I haven't written in three weeks.  I have been tired.  Some days are good, some days bad, and most days are  a struggle to be honest.  I do darn well at staying positive, but some days just drag...

Day one.  Goals: To remain positive, see beauty around me, to find peace in the discomfort, to be patient with others, and to live the day to the fullest.

Holy smokes, 2011 already is upon us.  How does time fly so fast.  Sometimes I think back at the passing of time and although it wasn't that long ago, it feels like another lifetime.  I will be...

It pours!  Well the last month has been so exhausting.  I had a lousy cold for 3 weeks, Thyroid trouble (indeed I have hypo thyroidism), a bladder infection, and of course MS.  I guess the Tyroid...

Circumstances of life..... They can get you down.  The challenge for me and others with MS is living beyond your circumstances and your feelings.  I rarely ever feel good.  I think my good day...

You know I have been thinking.  Where's the peace in the midst of this disease.  Now, don't get me wrong, I have a fairly positive attitude on most days.  Then again there are the days where I am...

I have hated change for most of my life.  Having come from a family of divorce, where nothing is predictable, I liked knowing what to expect.  And now I am living with the unpredictable.  MS is so...
