I have started stretching my right shoulder and arm a little more than before. I find that as the shoulder and arm tightens up it affects my fingers and their mobility. Yesterday morning when I woke up it was the best my right hand has been for quite a while. The day started out really good. We had dinner plans with our friends Julie and Tom H. I really look forward to seeing them, they are one of our favorite couples. We planned to meet them for $5 pizzas at a nearby bar and grill.
I tried to rest a couple of times and take a nap but I never
fell asleep. I ended up not feeling the best but went to dinner anyway. If I
wait till I felt good I would probably never leave the house. We had a great
visit. I feel bad for other people because my voice is so weak I have trouble
participating in the conversations. I feel like I should but I get more out of listening
than I do talking.
It’s really kind of weird about my appetite.
When I wake up I’m starving and really enjoy breakfast. Lunch comes around 1 PM
and I’m not really very hungry but I eat a small lunch. Then by dinner time I
have 0 appetite and usually have to make an effort to eat. I think this is from
sitting in the chair and having no real movement. Some days it’s worse than
others. A few days I am hungry at dinner but that is more rare than common. I
ended the day yesterday glad we went to dinner but also glad when it was time
for bed. MS is a strange companion.
