Today was a good day. I actually was able to work my full shift. I am grateful for that, although I have to tell you I am so very tired. A welcomed gift awaited me at home though. One of the ladies from my church brought over a meatloaf, scalloped corn and homemade bread for us. It was delicious and allowed my husband to take a little break.
I carry a lot of guilt around me when it comes to my husband. He is wonderful and loves me very much. I feel as though he got the raw end of the deal. He works so hard and I appreciate everything he does for me. To be honest I don't know how he does it. He works full time, then spends his free time helping out one of the elderly men in our church, helps me out, does work around the house. I am truly blessed to have him in my life. I try to tell him Thank You for everything he does, but I can't truly relay in words my gratitude.
We went to the grocery store yesterday. Let me tell you, there was a time that I would spend a whole day at stores and would come home still as rested as when I left. We spent one and half hours out yesterday and you would have thought that I ran a 20K marathon, plus a 20K bike ride, plus hiked a fourteener. That is how exhausted I was. It is so weird that our bodies can change so drastically over a course of a few years. I am by no means old, not a spring chicken either, but MS makes you feel like you are beyond a hundred years old when it comes to energy (or lack there of).
This song I dedicate to my husband, whom I love with all my heart and am grateful that the good Lord brought him into my life.
