Why do I feel so MSy this morning? Oh yeah....lack of sleep....

Not that it's anything new for me, losing sleep, but I didn't wake up until 7, which is late for me. Of course I didn't fall asleep until around 4.....my own fault for not taking benadryl until around 11.
I know I'm obviously addicted to benadryl, as I've had to keep taking more of it just to be able to sleep most nights. Not to be negative on MS, but between the steroids and the spasms which current treatments don't help, I have to take benadryl. Ironically, my Dr.'s don't want me taking things like Ambien, as there is a potential to become addicted...damned if you, damned if you don't....
Tim has sleep issues also, but I don't want him taking benadryl, and possibly becoming addicted like me, due to the risk of hypoglycemic reactions in his sleep, and him not being able to wake up. Luckily his Dr. has given him an Rx for Ambien.....for him to take as needed....
I wish I could be like my cats, who easily fall asleep.....at least I receive joy/pleasure just watching them chill out....I can't help but smile.
The photo is of Curry, who often sleeps/rests with his paws crossed....
Guess I have no choice but to chill out...I can finish making the veggie sushi later...at least I've steamed the brown rice(where it dawned on me why I didn't get any sleep, duh) :-0

Is it June 11th already?

I hate that I've been a slacker-blogger lately, but given Tim's health concerns of late, chest pains, cardiac cath, and an extended battle with DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis)and gastroparesis, it has been anything but boring....at least,the "kids" are doing great...
I ordered a bulk box of "rattle mice" for them, the picture is of Prozac with a few of the toys, best to buy in bulk when you have 7 cats....
OK,only ten more days to go until the Summer Solstice. I look forward to that day, not because I lean Pagan in my spiritual views, but that is when the days will start getting shorter, meaning less sunlight.....which suits my eyes much better. Not only do I have MS, but I have PP....photophobia...caused by autonomic nerve dysfunction....yes, I wear my sunglasses at night...so I can, watch you breathe, (hopefully you know the 80's song I'm referring to)...and the most of the day, even indoors...I also have to keep the blinds shut as if I'm a vampire...on the bright side (bright side, get it?) I have several pairs of cool sunglasses....and not going around squinting too much because of my adaptations have kept my skin looking pretty damn good around my eyes....I still carded...
Which doesn't really matter if I don't get out that much anyway....does it? It's not as if my cats notice....ha!
The irony of life....

Adjusting to warmer weather

Here we go, warm/hot weather...I wish it didn't effect my MS, but it does.On the positive side, I do have central AC and a very empathetic hubbie, Tim who understands why I have to keep the house so cool, year round. I think Darwin in the picture sits on my lap to keep warm. :-)

Seize the day...

Hopefully I will sleep good tonight and enjoy Sunday with Tim and the "kids".....my fur family, 7 indoor spoiled cats....good night....
