Today is turning out to be a nice relaxing Sunday. I made pancakes for breakfast and set up the Bose system.
The morning is still wide open.
So is anyone else getting depressed by the news? The economic situation is horrible, Israel and Palestine will not stop going at it, and it's so sad. I guess it could always be worse, but how did we get to this horrible point? I'm really worried that the Middle East situation might escalate to a world war, what with all the nuclear arms proliferation that has occurred in so many countries over the past few years. Unless an independent party agrees to act as mediator for the two sides, the situation will just continue to escalate. I liked Naomi Klein's idea of a boycott to Israeli products in order to send an economic signal of disapproval around the world, but it just seems like too little too late. I'm not sure that it would have enough of an economic effect to even bear noticing. We are talking about years of segregation and persecution and hatred that have brought the two parties to this point.
I think maybe that I have too much time on my hands. I was counting - I'm generally up 16 hours a day, and that's a lot of time to fill when you are not working - lol! I'm thinking about taking a language class - something to get me out of the house more and force me to study. The Nav continuing education or rather re-education program that I was putting myself on has been a no go thus far - it's hard to force yourself to study! At least it is for me - I have always admired those self-motivated people that can schedule and stick to allotted study and work and feeding and play times. I do think that the best balance is somewhere in between though.
About that situation with the ex-friend - I've decided to just let it go. It's really not worth worrying about - it's in the past and what's done is done. The funny thing is the lie that was told is so obviously not true, and in February it will be obvious to everyone. So why spend a second's thought on the silliness? You're right, I won't!!!
I didn't really have a ton to say today, so sorry for the brevity, but I wanted to get a post in while I had a chance. I hope that you are all having nice Mimosa or other drink of your choice Sundays!
TTFN,
Amy

Hi Amy, I am so sorry I haven't posted before tonight, I have a real bad flu and feel so blahhhh!!!
I agree with what you write about all the wars, it is becoming a huge situation. I wonder if this new president will be able to deal with this in a positive manner???
How are you feeling? Do keep your blog going, writing down your thoughts is a good thing. I'll visit often and am adding you to a blog I follow.
I hope today was a good day for you, I know with MS there are periods of good days and bad ones.
Hang in there friend and take very good care of yourself
(((((hugs)))))
Hi Sylvie!
Do you go by Madeleine? Thanks for commenting - I'm so glad you got a chance to check out the blog. Definitely check out this book when you get a chance, IU'm fairly certain it will have a section that you can use for MS!
I've been going through a bit of a downturn later, now that you ask, but we are going to see the dr. tomorrow to discuss how to improve things again tomorrow. This is just a temporary setback, it happens with these silly auto-immune diseases.
Thanks again for writing - I've missed our conversations! I hope that you are also feeling way better than before, please make sure you keep in touch this time, ok? I hope that you are over this crazy flu asap!
Amy
