ahhhhhh, Holly, here's a great big

praying for your Grandma...

IVSM wasn't yet in fashion when I was still having massive flares.

things have settled down a lot for me since I became SPMS... just sort of a long slog, and hardly any noticeable flares, just a slow accumulation of residual deficits at this point, and an occasional (har har!) new symptom.

there's no availability of IVSM here in the jungle, and travel is prohibitively expensive lately, so... I just cruise along, and try to tune most of it out (except for the TN, there's no tuning with THAT stuff... )

anyway, thanks for explaining it to me, I didn't know much about it.

Holly, prayers going out for your grandma.

OMG if it wasn't 0330 in the morning I'd be callin u Sandy!

oh you should have called her...hehehee

Holly good luck and hugsssss with your grandma...

hugss to all...

day off, but our once a month meeting, with the three of us store managers and the owners. The owner and wife take us to breakfast..and we discuss anything of importance since the month before....and he goes over stuff...goals..what not...

then home..and wow..gotta do about 10 loads of laundry..no kidding...and there is still lots of Madelines clothes on the dining room table...I dont have room in my room till I clear out all the clothes I have in closet and drawers that I dont wear....I dont know but the stuff accumulates..I dont buy clothes at all....serious I hate shopping...but my drawers are always full of stuff and hardly wear any of it...I have two pairs of jeans that fit at the moment so I should be shopping....over the years I am always like well when I get lighter...lol..guess I better give that up. hehehe

naaaa get lighter but at least have a bit more stuff that fits me now...too..

tonight, is a football baquet dinner for son...so him and I will probably go...unless hubby wants to take him...I just got the two tickets...

tomorrow night, hubby and I will be out Christmas shopping..since we really havent done any....maybe go to movies too...we want to see Four Christmases...heard pretty good for laughs.....and would be nice to get out together just us...

WEll got lots of cleaning again to do, I want to bring in our fake tree....never thought I would have one...but someone gave me one...and I put it up thinking it wouldnt be real looking..and it is a wonderful real looking tree....

I miss the real ones for the smell....but sometimes no fun....but thinking in few years..as the younger two get a bit bigger..hubby should go pick one with them...so they realize the real way of a tree hehehe...

hugsss,sarah

Mornin', everyone...Holly...(((())))...prayers going out for your grandma...and you...

Kay, I think IVSM was easier to deal with. Knocked the sxs out immediately...and no weight gain. I gained 2.5 lbs this week on the oral pred...lots less than last Dec, when I gained around 12...

I had a decent night's sleep...but had to get up at 3:30 to drive DS and DIL to the airport...they're going on their delayed honeymoon...to Aruba...lucky...

Barb, when is your semester done?

I haven't gotten one present...no ideas...grrr...

Well, I think I'm going shopping...one of the department stores is open at 6 am, and since I'm still in roid mode, I think I'll see what they have...

Have a great day, everyone, and be careful if you're going to get snowy weather...

cough it UP, girl...

you KNOW we won't rest until you give us ALL the salacious details.

I know.....what the heck!!?? Doesn't she know that curiosity killed the cat? It's like a hairball, Renee'......cough it up already!!

Good morning all!!

Mornin' all. Hugs to everyone. And a much needed to those who could use an extra shoulder to lean on.

DH arrived home last night in a decent mood. I found something out shortly before he got home that turned me into a bear for his arrival.

No news on my possible job but I found out (insert colorful word) DH plans to go behind my back and have DD work at his office starting in January.

Stuff further counseling. I'm done! I just don't have any more fight left in me.

Plenty to do better get moving.

Weave I'm so sorry that things aren't going any better for you on the home front. Try not to let things you don't have any control over upset you too much. I know....easier said than done.

I hope you get some good news about the job. You're in my prayers.
