I want my life back
Seriously. I'm tired of feeling ill..Up until 5 years ago, I was a super healthy person..now I'm chronically ill..The last week has been hell..Between work, trying to dogsit/birdsit and trying to take care of my cats...and the meds causing me to be tired..We'll its all caught up to me..I'm actually having disease symptoms for the first time in awhile..headache and the most annoying symptom where it seems like bugs are crawling on me. Ugh.
Piece of advice..Never take good health for granted. I did.
Sorry, tired and frustrated and sick of being sick!
I'm going to try and sleep but..please..make me laugh....x(

1. My dear turtlensue...
I'm not good at getting people to laugh, but I can sure hear you, sweetie!

I wish you could get your life back, believe me...

I have several close friends with chronic illness, and it takes a toll on them, every day.

I hear you about never taking for granted your health...I am grateful every day for what I have...

I hope you can sleep and that it will help restore you!

:loveya:

:hug:

2. OK...
when I was first diagnosed with MS I was terrified to give myself the shot everyday, so the first day, I keep an icepack on my thigh for like 30 minutes (hoping to deaden the pain), when I finally go to do it, I close my eyes, count to three jam the needle in and push the plunger....

only problem was, since I had my eyes closed and a frozen leg, I didn't realize that I had stopped about a centimeter above my skin and only managed to spray the injection all over my thigh....

I still laugh about it:)

5. SO my daughter sees a couple of cop cars outside an Einstein Bagels store.
She says "They must be on a diet."
