A Day in the Life of Multiple Sclerosis 092621

Good Morning from the Celebrity Suite of the Wyndemere Condominiums on Turtle Creek.  Today is Sunday, September 26. 


Happy Birthday to:


@Mark Thibodeau


National Pancake Day on September 26th sets up a tall stack of syrupy goodness to celebrate!


Also known as Johnnycakes, griddle cakes or hotcakes, this batter-made breakfast item dates back more than 30,000 years. In fact, it may be the oldest breakfast food in history.


It became a traditional part of Fat Tuesday celebrations when revelers would feast before fasting. They still do! The thin cakes can be rolled and filled with fruit and other fillings. Usually, though, they’re stacked and drizzled with flavored syrup. 



While served mostly as a breakfast item, pancakes along with bacon, ham, hashbrowns and other morning offerings also make a delicious supper. Breakfast for dinner is a nice change of pace in many homes. 


I LOVE breakfast for dinner.  And I love my pancakes with bananas or blueberries….and a side of crispy bacon…..and hashbrowns………and cheese grits…..and piping hot coffee.  


Oh well - I can dream, can’t I?  LOL


Yesterday was a total BUST.  After the plasma exchange I had on Friday, I was wiped out.  It’s going to be another sunny, fall day in Big D today.  I’ve got church (online) this morning and I also need to do a little work this afternoon since I am going in for another plasma exchange first thing in the morning.  


While going in for a plasma exchange is not the most convenient thing in the world, it is necessary for me right now.  And it is actually NOT a pain in the tucus.  Everyone in the Aphaeresis department is just so flipp’in nice.  (The people that go with me to my plasma exchange can attest to this). When I was there on Friday, no less than four nurses came by to say hello.  They heard I was there and wanted to stop by and chat - Hand to God!


I have gotten to know them all pretty well.  I guess that happens when you go in once or twice a week for four months.  LOL


What’s on your schedule today?


Come join us for church this morning at 11am at Oak Lawn United Methodist Church (or online on Facebook Live).  All are welcome at OLUMC. 


Anyhoozle, I hope you all have a wonderful day and whatever you do today and every day, do it with kindness in your heart. The world is full of kind people. If you can’t find one, be one!  And as always:


...wear a mask

...be kind and compassionate to one another

...dance/sing/laugh it out. It might not help but it sure as hell couldn't hurt.

Peace, Love and Blessings to you all.  -AJ
