People ask one another for help daily, especially people like me.
It does become embarrassing when you find yourself doing it so often, but in truth you realize what choice do you have?
It’s not unheard of when folks have been together for many years, spouses, that one could be so attuned to the other’s needs that they can anticipate the other before the wants or need is spoken aloud.
Wow, those people are true soul mates.
And may be in my unrealistic desires and not one I can lay claim to.
Yep, you got it!
Hubby continues to go by the line, ‘just ask’.
So that is what I have found myself doing, but for someone who had not ever been a dependent in their life it is still after all the time that has passed to do it, not as simple as he suggests.
Repetitive and annoying is what I feel like when I have to keep asking.
It is shameful in my book to be needing to be helped so much, and needing to ask for that help so often, but I am being redundant, aren’t I?
Sadly on this topic is the one we butt heads over the most.
As days go on… my inabilities or as well as my many medications cause me to have quite a few side affects too.
That cause irritability, weight gain and besides the normal MS dizziness I have also Ataxia and medicinally caused dizziness. It’s a lose, lose situation some days.
Lately my stomach has been causing me grief but I have a long history of stomach disorders too.
Let’s face it, I am a mess!
Right now my back is acting up too and so this may be a shorty tonight…
Any-who… on the positive side…,
People are so wonderful out in the world on the short term.
They smile when I do, and talk when I do too.
On Facebook I have two friends that I wished a happy birthday to this week and they reacted so lovely in thanking me that I must say it made me smile, but sadly they couldn’t see it.
Who doesn’t enjoy making other people happy has never done it!
I suppose that is what I miss the most is feeling the good feeling of making others happy with helping others.
Oh what a feeling!
That’s’ why working non-profit as a volunteer is so rewarding.
But today once again I did sign a message that will be going to congress on a vote to help persuade them to help people with MS.
I so enjoy online advocacy which I still can do.
And I did this time have the good sense to pass it on to a couple of others with MS and hopefully they will also get involved this easy way.
Not doing well… pain sitting once again and so I will bid you all a very happy night and to all count those blessings and share those overages please and we will too!
And next time be here or be square, OK?
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
