Pick-Me-Up Friday Eve

Fightmsdaily

I know it has been a shorter week, but it has felt like a long week! As much as I enjoy long weekends, I always dread the short weeks because you have to consolidate five days into four, which tends to be chaotic! How has your week been? Of course, Tuesday was disastrous, and Wednesday was only slightly better. Today is the first day of June, which also means the HOT weather is coming, especially in the south where I live. I know I have said this before, but I do not like when the weather gets too hot to even leave the house. Does anyone reading this enjoy warmer weather or rather HOT weather?

This week is almost over, but we do still have one more day until the weekend returns, so I thought a little pick-me-up could be helpful for everyone! I know it is not a long…

Happy Midweek! Today is the third day of the week, but only the second workday due to the holiday on Monday! Of course, I enjoy a long weekend, but my goodness, the Tuesday following a long week was beyond insane! I knew it was going to be a busy day, so yesterday being super busy was not a surprise. What was surprising was how rude some people were. I guess maybe their long weekend was not all that great. How was your long weekend? Mine was pretty good. We were finally able to do some things around our house that make the house a little more homey. We now have flowers on our front porch, which I think makes the house look amazing, and we finally hung pictures!

Considering we were able to bypass Monday and skip ahead to Tuesday, we have already made it through half of this week!…

Monday and long weekend

Fightmsdaily

Life should be viewed as a journey and never as a race. Why is it that when we were children, all we wanted was to be grown, but once we are an adult with many responsibilities, we wish we could be a carefree child again? Most of us thought when we were young children that life would be better once we were an adult because we thought adults made all the rules, and as children, we did not want to listen. I wonder how many of us now, as adults and with everything we know or think we know if, we would rethink how fast we tried to grow up.

What advice would you love to offer to your younger self? I believe I would tell my younger self to slow down and learn to enjoy life more because it could be over at any moment. I would remind my…

Happy Friday Eve, y’all! Of course, it is wonderful that tomorrow is Friday, but even better, we are heading into a long weekend! I do know that even when it is a three-day weekend, it never feels long enough, but I am still glad to have three days off from work! I wish I could say we were going out of town or doing something exciting, but we are staying at home. I would love to go somewhere over the weekend and to get some flowers for our front porch because I love how beautiful flowers look, and smell. Of course, I will be saying something different when there are too many bees, which I am terrified of! Are you excited about the long weekend, and do you have anything planned?

Even though I have been looking forward to Friday since Sunday night, the week has not been too bad!

Well, it appears it is that time again, and we must start a new week☹. I am not sure where the weekend went because I swear it seems like it was just yesterday and I was excited for the weekend. It is funny how things work the way they should and go by in the blink of an eye, but those things we all dread, always return to torment us. Did you have a nice, and safe weekend? Honesty, my weekend was very unexciting and even a little miserable. Today, it would be so nice if we could be offered a do-over like they do in movies and TV shows.

Remember, just because the week is over and the weekend is about to begin, you do not have to make any plans that you do not want to make. Make this weekend about what you want and what you need, and just once think about yourself. Please do not think this is selfish behavior because it is not selfish to think about your needs. My goodness, if you are anything like me, you always think about everyone else and what they want, so there is NOTHING wrong with thinking about your needs!

It might sound boring to most people, but the only thing I am looking forward to about the weekend is not having to get up early! Of course, I will probably still wake up early because in my mind I know I have to take care of the cats, but I hope to not be up as early as I am during the week!

Happy Monday, y’all! I hope you enjoyed your weekend, and that you are ready for the new week to begin again. My weekend was quiet, which was nice because it allowed me to recuperate from last week. For many reasons, last week was very long and stressful, but I am hoping this week will be better. I am honestly not sure I could handle another week like last week because it was that awful. The funny thing about some bad weeks is that a lot of the reasons for them being so bad is because of choices we made, or rather did not make. Something I have learned the hard way is, no matter how long it takes for us to make the right choices, it is never too late. Most of the time, the only one to blame for life not going the way we want is ourselves!

Sadly, there have been too many random acts of violence in the United States, and I cannot understand this. What happened to humanity, or have too many people forgotten the meaning? I know many of us have seen how some of our political leaders behave, or maybe I should phrase this as how they misbehave. Just because we witness how a political leader acts, it does not mean it is the way we should act. We all have different beliefs and there is not anything wrong with this. It is important to realize we are all in this world together, and we must start learning ways to accept these differences. There is no right or wrong way to live, and it is only wrong to mistreat or be unkind to others. If someone is not causing harm to others, what does it matter? No one should fear living their life…

On Wednesday, I had my normal three-month follow-up appointment with the pain management doctor, which like always, went well. The only part of these appointments I always dread is the drive because it is about an hour and a half away from my house, and I have to drive on the world’s worst Interstate. There has been road construction on this Interstate for years, and I do not think it is going to end or there will be any progress.

Thoughts in my mind

Fightmsdaily

When I was younger, politics was never a topic I had any interest in following. It was not clear to me when and if any politician was being sincere, truthful, or had the best interests of anyone besides themselves in mind. As I have gotten older and slightly less blind or ignorant to the way our political system operates, the only thing that appears crystal clear is the vast majority of our political leaders have forgotten what it means to be honest. It does not matter what the party is, they all have one general thing in common, and it is not the best quality, as it is complete and utter dishonesty.

Political rhetoric has been an overwhelming and toxic predicament in the United States for far too long. These issues should never have escalated to the extreme levels it has over the last several years. It seems unheard, of…

One thing that I do enjoy is getting to know new co-workers that come onto our team and welcoming them with kindness. I think this is important because we are all nervous when we are starting a new job, and it can be a more difficult transition when people are not kind, understanding, and welcoming. Do you remember the last time you started a new job? Were people welcoming and kind, or were they standoffish?

The one thing I do not appreciate is when people for whatever reason try to stir drama up. I do not understand this kind of behavior because we are all adults and therefore should behave as such. It…

I am not sure how I managed to work while battling with this migraine, but I refused to let it win, which I am not sure if that was determination or stubbornness on my part.

Congratulations, y’all, we have made it halfway through this week, and the weekend isSOmuch closer! How has your week been so far? Yesterday was a SUPER busy day at work, but it was only because there were a few people out, and I had to be about three people. It was hectic, but the day went by fast. The one good thing was, I did learn something new that I am sure will be very helpful in the future. It is crazy, I have been with my company for a year now and I just learned this new task! I enjoy learning new things and feel it will make me a more beneficial asset.

Now that we are halfway through this week, and we can feel how close the weekend is, I think we could all benefit from a little inspiration to get us through the last part…

Motivational Monday

Fightmsdaily

Here we are again, at the beginning of a new week! I hope you had a nice weekend and are ready to start this week with the best mindset possible. I know most of us are not excited about the new week, but we have an opportunity to accomplish some amazing things. Of course, it seems like it is going to be another long five days, and maybe that is partially true, but maybe this week will be the best one yet! Yes, I know the weekends are way too short, but the weekend will return, again!

I know it is not easy, but it is best to begin the new week motivated and determined. I want to believe this week is going to be a great week for all of us. I hope the quote that I am sharing with help provide everyone reading the motivation needed to get…

YOU are strong enough!

Fightmsdaily

The life we are living can often feel as though we are constantly dealing with an uphill battle. Or maybe a journey we are not meant to be traveling down. The moment one struggle subsides, another one appears nearly immediately. There may be many times during a week you wonder when life will get any easier, only to realize it probably is not going to. Understanding this fact does not mean you are accepting defeat, but instead, you are learning to realize your strengths and understand that you are courageous enough to handle anything.

When we know that someone else is experiencing a challenging or bumpy road and may feel like they are drowning in the turmoil of life, we can understand this feeling because we have been there before, and maybe recently. In a moment we must decide to offer advice or be a shoulder for that person to…

MS Medications and Copay Assistance Programs

Fightmsdaily

Although it has been 20 years since I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, there still has not been a cure discovered. When I was diagnosed, there were not many disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) available and the ones that were offered were all injection based. I will never forget the first two I tried because they failed miserably. To be 100% honest, it may not have been the medications that failed, but instead, I was at fault because I found it too difficult to give myself a shot. Of course, injecting yourself with a sharp needle is challenging, but I think that the after-effects were much more miserable.

One can experience side effects with any medication, which I believe is because most medications, no matter how helpful they seem are poison and they require another medication to combat the symptoms. I guess you could say that big pharma knew exactly what they…

Let It Go Friday

Fightmsdaily

Finally, it is Friday, and time to be released from the hectic chaos of the workweek! How was your week? I think our workweeks are far too long, and our weekends areWAYtoo short! How would you feel about a four-day workweek and a three-day weekend? Yes, that might mean the work days are longer, but would it not be worth it to have a long weekend? I would be happy to work 10-hour days if it meant, I could enjoy a long weekend, which would be wonderful! I guess that is easy for me to say because I do work from home, but it is still a struggle to get through the weeks!

As y’all already know, I think Friday is the perfect day to let go of all the stress and negativity the week may have created. There isNOpoint bringing those feelings into a weekend…

Pick-Me-Up Thursday!

Fightmsdaily

Happy Friday eve, y’all! I hope you have had a good week, and that you are looking forward to the upcoming weekend. Remember, this is your weekend, and you do not have to make any plans, but you can if that is what you want to do. My plans for the weekend are to, hopefully, sleep in a little because that is normally something that I never do. I also do not plan on doing anything that is not something that I want to do. Of course, one thing besides sleeping in that I want to do is to clean the house because I do enjoy cleaning the house and getting things organized. This is something that makes me feel accomplished😊! I also want to do at least one more post for Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month!

Do you believe there is power in positive thinking? Is it possible that our…

Inspirational Wednesday

We have made it through the first half of the week successfully, now we just have a few more days before the weekend will return! I tend to think the first few days of every week are always the most challenging, but what do you think, is it the first few days or the last few days? The first days of my week provided me with an amazing surprise as I received several fantastic compliments at work. I do not know about you, but I find people are quick to complain or make negative comments, and rarely pay compliments to others. I do not work to get recognition but work to provide the best service I can, so when it is noticed, I am shocked!

The weeks tend to feel long, and at the halfway point, I think we could all use a little inspiration because we know there are…

Motivational Monday

How is it already Monday again? Does it ever feel like the “weekend” was nothing more than a dream or a wish? It always seems like the weekend goes by way too fast. I think it would be amazing if the workweek was four days, and every weekend was three days😊! Even if this was the way things went, the weekends wouldNEVERbe long enough. How was your weekend? I did not do much of anything, but I was able to sleep in a little on Sunday, which was a HUGE difference for me. Normally, I am awake every day by 7:15 AM, and yesterday I did not get up until a little after 8:00!

We should always try to begin our week with a positive and motivated mindset. Yes, I do understand it is not easy, but it is better than starting a new week with a negative…

Our emotions are powerful, strong, intense, and can be terrifying. We can experience numerous forms of emotions each day and may feel several of these emotions simultaneously. Not all of the emotions we encounter will be positive and enjoyable, but there will also be negative emotions that we will need to handle and adjust to. Of course, positive emotions are always welcomed, and “most” people will not have any complaints. Unfortunately, there are some people that can find a reason to complain no matter how well things are going in their lives.

Negative emotions can impact anyone’s life. Positive or negative emotions do not discriminate and will invade your life, heart, and mind without notice. There is a part of me that believes that some negative emotions, such as anger, can create positive changes because we may feel so much anger, we will do whatever it takes to fix the…

Let’s Be Honest

Fightmsdaily

Happy Saturday, y’all! After a long and frustrating week, how do you want to spend your weekend? With today being the first day of the weekend, all I wanted to do was sleep in, but that did not happen. It was not just the way things typically go by waking up at the same time I normally do, and was much worst than that. For the past two days, the pain in my legs and feet has been at a miserable high. I have not been able to get comfortable and sleep well, which makes me feel abnormally tired and irritated. I know things could be far worse, but Multiple Sclerosis often feels like a punishment for something I did in life, and no matter how many times I apologize, it does not end! I guess it would help if I knew what the punishment was for.

I think our…
