Whatever Log! (Random thoughts, questions, opinions. I don’t catch enough dreams for a dream log.)
Gratitude stories!
Remember, the difference between being grateful and showing gratitude is the WHY story. As long as you are writing your story of why you’re grateful, you can’t overthink past decisions, wish for the “good, ol’ days”, wonder how much worse your health will or question if anyone else will leave.

3.) I need WATER 🫣 – I was with my PT yesterday, doing PT but it was my worst day EVER. I stood for 10min and then spasms, spasticity, tremors, muscle weakness took over the rest of the session. He did his best buuuuuut… 🫣. In the end, he advised my issues were PPMS AND dehydration. I’ll admit, I skip it sometimes so I use the bathroom less. After that terrible spell, he said I must do better. I’m grateful I have water so it’s an easy fix. #drinkup. He also explained coconut water was better than lemon water. (That one is opposite what I’ve believed!)

2.) Wall-walked around the truck – *pops collar* Yuuuuup. I did it. Walked around the hood, hands on the hood, and got myself in the truck. This saved time because my wife didn’t have to back out and back in. She was IMPRESSED. (A whole notha gratitude story. 😉).

1.) Got my blood work done – Grateful as it’s necessary for starting Ocrevus on Monday. I have high hopes for this medication. 🤞🏾. Not to cure me, just slow my disease progression. Every bad hours have turned in to hard days. Hard days are rough weeks. Rough weeks take a little bit more of my independence permanently. I’m not independent now but damn. Most days, I can get myself out the bed and into the wheelchair, to the bathroom and sit on a computer for work. I gotta do that to keep healthcare.
