Merry Christmas to any blog readers out that that celebrate the holiday.
I have to say, this is the first Christmas in a while that I have not seen the big debate on facebook over the name of the holiday. Some say, "Happy Holidays," to in inclusive, others demand they are only wished a "Merry Christmas" and abhor the phrase Xmas, because it takes Christ out of Christmas.
Me, I don't care so much either way. I say Merry Christmas, because that's what my family has always celebrated, but I am also appreciative of a Happy Holidays or even Happy Hanukah. Whatever. If you wish me one of those, I'll wish the same back to you.
So I wish everyone a happy whatever they celebrate and hope the new years brings peace, love, kindness, and a cure for MS! :)

RIP Twinkies
I saw this on facebook. I often chuckle at these things, but rarely share. This one though, I had to share. It's kinda funny.
My therapist and I were talking about the end of the world. I couldn't remember the exact date, but we were both kind of laughing at how ridiculous it was. She said the receptionist was joking about it, and she shhhhhhed her. She had clients who had real worries about this.
I didn't share with her, but I'm kind of the opposite. Or at least I was (still having good days!). I hoped it would happen. The end of the world would be a great alternative to living. I'm not dreading it. I'd welcome it.
I don't know if I still feel that way - guess a few more weeks to figure that out.

Thoughts for the night
If you want to feel rich, count all the great things you have that money can't buy
friends - really great friends, the kind that I know I can call on when I really need something. The kind that can pull me up when I need it, and that I know will call on me when they need it. The ones from long ago, the current ones, and the ones that I know are forever.
family - even if they can make me crazy, they are there. In all sorts of weather, and they love me, unconditionally
knowledge - not just the book kind that came out of school, but the real life experience I have had. The lessons I have learned, even if they came about the hard way, make me who I am.
children - there's been amazing children I've met in my life. They've left a footprint on my soul and I really appreciate what they've done for me.
camp - as a child, this place defined me. All I wanted to be when I grew up was my counselors. This place molded me, and taught me about life.
love - it's cheesy, but those I've loved are worth it. 'Tis better to have loved and lost, then to never have loved at all - or something like that.
inspiration - those thoughts, ideas, things that keep me going. It's those things I can turn to when I'm having a tough time.
health - eh, I can't count that anymore

My favorite postsecrets
I find postsecret like a big connection. There's always some secrets I relate to. Others I think are super intriguing and they make me want to learn more about humanity. Some are funny, scary, taboo, or just downright sad. No matter what they are, I love reading them every Sunday.

Are you sure it's winter?
The weather is gorgeous today and Morgan and I walked forever. Now she's a tired pup.

multiple universes
I was talking this morning about "Rabbit Hole" and the theory of multiple universes. In each place you are a different person, in a different situation and all these universes run parrell with this one. We made a bit of a game out of figuring what forms of me there are out there.
* One without MS (of course that was the first one I thought of)
* One where I'm a criminal
* My favorite color is...(ack) pink
* I am a tatoo lover
* I don't like working with children
* I have lots of money
In order news, I got a bill from my doctor today. I was keeping track of copays, cause they never asked me for them there, but then I forgot and now I have a big bill that I need to work out how I am going to pay. I have an appointment this week, but I'm not sure if I have to pay this whole bill first. If I do, I may need to cancel it. The sucky thing is that I can't reschedule it until after August.
I had been working myself up to talk to her about some things that I just really don't want to talk about. One just seems silly and like I need to get over, and the other, well, it's a little ridiculous. I can't find ANYTHING anywhere on the internet about this being from MS or a side effect from Avonex, yet I've been keeping track and like clockwork, it always happens 2 days after my shot and lasts until day 5. Anyway, it's embarassing and I know she's a doctor and yadda yadda yadda.
I have until tomorrow morning to work out how to pay this bill, or I have to cancel the appointment. Other than those two pesky things though, I feel good!
