Jingle bells...

Today the low for Calgary is to be -54C with wind chill. Can you say COLD!
I really don't mind the cold or the snow. I hate the wind!

I think we have all started thinking about Christmas and well we have already started celebrating!

We had a small party last night. Grace has opened quite a few gifts but she absolutely loves her toboggan! She sits in it and waits patiently until one of us pulls her around the house! Too cute!

Today Grace has her "Kids of the DI" party. I really enjoy kid parties because they are just too cute! They love to just have fun and take it all in! I think that this is the most important thing we loose when we become adults. It's good to be a kid and have no other pressing matter then Play Play Play!

Last night we watched the movie "Up" finally!

This is the best movie I have watched in a very long time...Go rent it...cuddle up on the sofa with a blanket and hot chocolate and enjoy!

Stay warm!

This Tuesday will be a good day

Well, if it's not one thing it;s another right!
Being busy keeps me well and I know that with MS you should relax and get as much rest as possible but I have proven things wrong before!

We had a great Snow Blizzard this passed weekend and that was...lovely!

Today, after being in the car for 1 1/2 hours trying to get to work I finally made it only to have to leave a few minutes later to go see Dr. Costello and get my 6 month MRI.

I will be a great day... I have Tuesday's but I am saying it will be a good day!

I think I'm busy!

I guess you can all tell when I start to get either very busy or ill. That's typically when I don't write!

In the next 10 days I have lots to do...read this!

Today I had an eye exam which I need to do every 3 months for 2 years because of the Optic Neuritis.
Friday I have chiro in the morning and dentist in the afternoon.
Tuesday I have a meeting with Dr. Costello (my neurologist) and then a 2 hour MRI. This one will be to monitor the lesions on my brain.
Friday I have chiro again.
Saturday I have an other 2 hour MRI and this one is the study that Dr. Costello is leading.

On top of all this I have a few Christmas events that I am either planning or attending!

All of this and it doesn't even include my work, being with my family, working on the Christmas WishList (www.homelesspartners.com ) for the DI and well just getting groceries!

I will do my best to write within the next few days to explain the 2 new treatments available for MS.

Oh... I almost forgot...I still need to finish my shopping for all the Christmas gifts!
