Mornings with MS are the worst.   I often joke that I'm having a "kissing the closet" kinda day but it's really not a joke.  It means that I woke, stood from the bed and walked, well bumped, the closet several times while passing.  It's loud so it's a good thing Mark is usually out of bed.   I seem to have a gravitational pull to my left in the morning and my closet doors are the victim.   You might wonder why I don't move my bed, well, those same closet doors (and wall) being so close to my bed are supportive for when walking is difficult.

I'm not sure what it is about sleeping that awakens the monster.   Just know this....when you have to pee really really bad and your legs have jello syndrome...it's not a pretty site.   Imma just saying.

I'm 10 days off my Tysabri (meaning I was due for a Tysabri treatment ten days ago).  The bladder issues are returning.  Although, I have had a lot of sugar and soda this week so I'm not so quick to blame it on my lack of Tysabri.   However, the 80lbs of concrete in my ankles is concerning.

HaHa..  The last sentence above is really an accurate description but now you know why my Dr. thinks I'm a certified goofball.

That darn UPS tracking link is NOT giving me an ETA on the juicer.  I guess it doesn't matter as I have not done a lick of preparation in the kitchen for the bugger.   I need to do some grocery shopping once it arrives but at this point I'm planning on starting my cleanse next weekend.   I heard that the first few days are rather rough so I thought I would make sure to start on a weekend.  Any start date tips???  I want to juice for two weeks and then slowly incorporate raw foods. No, I'm not going all veggie.  I'm going to be allowed wild or grass fed meat.  I might even start looking for a used dehydrator to make some jerky.   I think Mark might even like having jerky around the house.   Oh, poor Mark.  I'm sure he wishes I would ixsnay this eating healthy idea.
