Not to worry at this point about your choices. You've got a lot going on. Exercise might work as a stress reliever for you. Have you been to the gym/pool lately?  

I have not been to the gym...back and forth to doctors, caring for granddaughter, too busy by half!! I will try to go in the morning, thank you. How was all your running with hubby and the doctors? It is supposed to cool off here after tomorrow and moving toward fall...will that help him also? 

Running is exhausting. Everything is so far away. We'll get his labs in the next couple of days so I'll be able to see how he's fairing. More concerned about a crazy swelling, itching problem he's having and had for the past 3 weeks. He won't go to the doctors. Or, he tried yesterday and his doc is out until Thursday. So won't see anyone else. We have no idea what it might be. Eliminated everything he's eaten and been around for the past 3 weeks. I suspect it's another one of those weird quirky symptoms associated with the MS. Like when he can't swallow. We're going to an MS seminar tomorrow and there will be others there and a nurse who works with MS patients. We'll ask around then. 

We're expecting cool weather by Friday. Around 50. That helps. However, once he starts with the symptoms and flare-ups, they continue non-stop until around December. So, it's usually 3 months symptom free and 9 months I need a cigarette and a drink.  

One cigarette is too much and one drink is not enough--I know that is not really helpful, but I could not resist!! 

My smile for the day. Thank you.
