I often wonder how many of my MS peers have mornings like I am having today, and have been happening more and more frequently. I can't seem to pull myself together and am learning quickly how much I despise mornings.. Knowing that I need to get things done in the mornings and not being able to do them is getting very frustrating.. Mornings are when it's time to do things and get things accomplished. Especially living here in South Florida, where the afternoon heat and humidity forces us that have heat sensitivity to remain indoors.
Today though, I awoke with another round of Vertigo. I had plans, which got canceled (good thing) because I wondered how I would make the drive. Then I went to take the dogs for a quickie walk, and found that my legs really didn't want to do any walking.. Instead they insisted that sitting would be a better option. I pushed regardless, as I needed to do some walking and after rounding the first bend on my street, decided that I should have maybe listened to what my legs were trying to tell me just a few minutes prior.. They didn't want to move another meter on their own.
Good thing my Dog ( Snoop ) was on her leach as she was then told "home" and to "pull"... Yes, she really is trained to do this. And being pulled, forcing my legs to move, is a lot easier than my brain simply telling each leg and foot to do their thing.
Finally getting back inside my home, I sat at my desk, took out a sheet of paper to write what I needed to do for today and then learned that I could barely hold the pen and worse,, couldn't read what I was writing.
How is it that I can type, but can't write? And so, then thought to type what you are reading here so that I can get your feedback...
If you awaken, feeling anything similar to what I just wrote, please tell us how you feel. I know, that I can't be the only one awakening this way... Yes, I do know it's called Fatigue.. You would think that I would know all about this and I probably do, but it's still nice to know, that I am not alone.....
