Even If I'm Just Writing For Myself....


(This is how I imagine my brain and body communication to look like…)

Good morning! I didn’t write ANYTHING yesterday. I just couldn’t muster the energy. It was declared, within our household, to be our “Day of Nothing.” That’s what we call days that are spent in pajamas watching television or movies, doing nothing productive. Those are great days! J
Today I woke up with my continued “issues” and my right hand is starting to become weak again. There’s an uncomfortable sensation that runs down my arm, and during this time, I feel myself concentrating harder than usual to make my hand do the things I needs to do. Typing, for instance. It’s really quite amazing how difficult to understand and complex our brains and nervous systems are!
Since I am still waiting on Disability to contact me (or, deny me since it‘s my first attempt), I need to find a way to make money. Doctor’s appointments, medication, food, you know, the usual, need to have some financial backing. By that, I mean, I need to provide them with cash that I, at this time, do not have. I plan on applying for some hostess positions today. I think I can do that for a short shift…. I can try at least…
My guy is pushing me to find a job, and although I try to explain this to him, it’s hard for him to completely understand. At least, that’s the impression I get. I think he thinks it will help my situation to work or find something to do… that’s profitable preferably. Maybe he’s right. So, I’ll give it a go. What’s the worst that could happen??? I get fired from a discount store or a restaurant??? No biggie!
I did find an interesting article about Mayo coming closer to finding a cure for ALS.

Now I’m off to attempt to be productive!!!
