BITE ME  |
My two best friends (and only friends) pretty much quit talking to me after I got diagnosed. One lives in another state, and she's got 4 kids, so I can understand that she'd be busy.
My other friend has tried, she'll email me about meeting up to go out for lunch. Then the date for the lunch will come and she hasnt emailed me back or called me saying when and where. But, she does have a kid, and a job, so I can understand that too.
It just sucks that they dont even call me anymore.
Only person who didnt disappear on me was my boyfriend. (yay!) He's been so nice, and a lot more understanding than other people. Might have something to do with him being pre-diabetic and he at least understands the whole "not feeling good" part of the MS.
He's been after me a bit to try to work out and build up some muscles and for me to at least try to keep in better shape. Good idea, but the lazy person in me is too lazy, and that's not from the MS. I'm just a big procrastinator.
Having MS has been a great excuse for not doing things that I dont want to do. Lately when I've used it as an excuse tho, it's been true and not just me fibbing because I didnt want to do something.
I'm so tired! Combing my hair makes my arms hurt. When I take a shower, just drying off and combing and drying my hair exhausts me. (I'm going to go get a shorter haircut soon) My left hand is numb (not totally) but my arm and hand get so tired and sore that even my favorite hobby of crocheting has been a chore lately.
I'm about ready to go and take a nap in a few minutes (I've been up since 11am...time for sleep again apparently) I'm actually happy the cleaning lady slacked off today and didnt show up like she was supposed to. Now I can go take a nap and dont have to listen to the vaccuum cleaner.
