Default What 's The 1ST Thing You'd Do?

Say you awakened tomorrow, after a great night's sleep and your MS/Disease is completely gone and you never felt better....What is the very first thing you would do?

I would get dressed to kill and jump into my minivan and rush to my Church, get down on my knees and thank God for the gift....Then, jump back into my minivan and drive all around town. familiarizing myself with all my favorite places that, I haven't seen in the years I've been ill.

I'd stop at the park and "walk" around the lake, watching the ducks and birds and listening to the children laugh and play..


I would wait until DD was home from work, her DH and my Grands are all there, and then take a very large bag of their favorite Taco Bell goodies and drop in to surprise the he!! out of them.

Then, I would go home sit down and plan all my adventures, in my new, stress filled, life..

What's the very 1st thing you would do??

I would first of all say a prayer of gratitude. Then I would get my sneakers on and head for downtown Chicago and walk up and down the streets, enjoying this very simple activity (now that my legs would be normal). It would be a wonderful experience, because I wouldn't get stiff or tired.

I'd walk through the woods to the waterfall, then go home and jump in my pool, then off to the grocery store then home to cook stuff I bought.And then......

Get down on my knees and thank God, then go walk around the lake again.

If it were winter....I'd go ice skating.
If it were summer....I'd go roller skating.
Then I'd jump in my car and drive......just drive
