MS Tuesday

7 Feb
Written By

I haven’t done a MS update in awhile so I figure now is a good time to catch everyone up on how I have been doing. I have an infusion this Friday and than a MRI on the 21st after work. In September of 2011 the company I work for switch insurance companies which means that I had to miss a infusion and I am still trying get to back to feeling great again. I am glad that the Tysabri does make me feel good once it gets built up in my system. I have been on Tysabri for about 3 years or so and for me that is huge. When I was younger I refused to stay on a treatment because all the medications that they had for MS then made me so sick.

Anyway I have been super tired and worn out. I know part of that is because I missed a month and another part of that is because of the stress of my day job. It has been 7 months since they let Misti go so it is busy for me and for some reason January has been crazy busy here and when it is like this by the time I get home from work all I want to do is sleep so I haven’t been able to keep up with designing let alone blogging. I am going to try and get all caught up on Friday while I am getting my infusion.

My hands are still numb all the time but I am starting to have times where I can’t hold on to anything because I can’t grip whatever I am trying to hold. My feet are also going numb on and off which makes walking hard and it is just annoying. Also at my last Doctors appointment she noticed that my balance has gotten bad and since then I have been paying attention to it and it is still bad but like all MS things it is hit or miss as to when it will happen.

That is all for now but I will update again after my doctors appointment at the end of this month. I hope everyone is having a great Tuesday!!

Finishing The Book

6 Feb
Written By

How do you feel about not finishing a book once you’ve read a few chapters?

As most of you know I love to read. I can pretty much read anything because I love to read but if a book doesn’t grab my attention in the first couple of pages I for the most part I won’t finish the book. If I get a chapter or two into the book then I have to finish it because if I don’t I will always wondered how it ended. Then there are the books like “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” where the first book was hard to get through but the 2nd & 3rd book are two of my favorite books. I am trying not to judge books by their covers but there are just some books that I can’t make myself get interested in.

Right now I am reading a book that I just can’t get into but I am like 10 chapters into the book so now I have to finish it or I will always wonder how it ended. The only book that I couldn’t read was the Twilight series. I tried several times and I couldn’t even get through the first chapter of the first book. I can’t figure out what people saw in those books but I guess it is like me and Harry Potter. I could read the Harry Potter books over and over again.

Do you finish books if you have read a few chapters into the book?

I was reading blogs last night and I can across a great new way to follow blogs it is called “Linky Followers” I have added the widget to my sidebar right above the GFC one. I would recommend everyone following me using the new one and that way you won’t miss out on any of my post once they do away with GFC. It was super easy to set up and easy to install.

Back Of The Book

MEDICAL MYSTERY!
In a large teaching hospital in Dallas, Texas, the neurosurgery department has the usual mix of new and old interns with their usual mix of problems, but it also has a couple of unexpected and unexplained deaths.…

MEDICAL MAYHEM!
Joan Murdock, first-year neurosurgery intern, can’t save the life of a good friend whose death simply doesn’t make sense—or maybe makes too much sense….Next is a hospital pharmacist who perhaps knew too much….And then a grim attack on Joan herself….

MEDICAL MURDER!
The method’s unusual; the motive’s chilling. Add to the potent brew a couple of torrid love affairs and a secret drug addiction, and somebody’s got a…

PRESCRIPTION TO KILL!

My Review

I loved this book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could not put this book down because the characters are doctors and it is a mystery. I have never read a book like this before and now I am hooked on them. I loved the characters and I was sad when one of the main characters gets killed. I was also rooting for her best friend to figure out who killed her. Now I knew the main person they thought killed her didn’t do it but I couldn’t figure out who really did it. Every chapter when they found out something new I would change who I thought did it but I never would have figured out who really did it. After I found out who did it I just sat there in shock because I never would have guessed in 100 years that they did it. I also loved how the author wrote a little bit about most of the main characters right at the beginning so you would know a little about them and also so you can go back and look at them if you forget who someone is and how they tie into the story.

I can’t any enough good things about this book! Everyone needs to read this book! Go here and pick the book up you won’t regret it!

FTC-I received “Prescription To Kill” from Dorrance Publishing Co, Inc for me to review. I was not compensated in any other way. The opinions expressed in this review are 100% mine

Writers Workshop-Pinterest

Mama’s Losin’ It

I haven’t done any thing for the writers workshop and since I haven’t had time to actually write in the past couple of weeks I figured that I would write about 2.) Are you on Pinterest? Share the last five items you pinned, choose one and let it inspire a blog post. I have been signed up for months for Pinterest but I never used it until the past 2 weeks or so and I am hooked! I am pinning all day long at work and when I am surfing the web. There are a lot of fun things I couldn’t just pick one so I am going to post some of my favorites here today instead of writing a post about just one.
