Happy New Year everyone! Since it's the beginning of a new year, I've thought it best to start off my SB journal with a fresh new start. How is everyone? Hope you all had a fantastic New Year's.

 

I've been still having seizures, but only small localized tonic-clonics. I received new moccasins for Christmas so my feet might actually be warm now. (Well, a girl can hope).

 

As far as Spina Bifida goes, I don’t really have anything to say that’s new. I was sick last September but that seems to be totally in the past now. I'm still working away at the dream of becoming a journalist one day. Not much more to say than that so think I'm going to go and find myself something to eat, as it's about time I had some breakfast. Have a great day everybody! :)

 

Well my Spina Bifida has been behaving lately. My arthritis and what I suspect is iron defiency anemia on the other hand, a totally different story.

 

Saturday I was alright but Sunday I began experiencing pain in my lower back. Monday morning I was stiff as a board (pardon the terrible cliche!). Tuesday (today), was a bit better.  Instead of being stuck in bed until 10 am, I was able to get up and moving by around 8.

 

I think the cold weather coming in is contributing to my stiffness. As I have mentioned above though, I am used to this. I'm used to my anemia taking me for a loop as well (though it thankfully rarely does). However my anemia has been causing me grief on and off for days now and is driving me batty. Who can concentrate on writing when they're feeling so exhausted and zapped of all energy?

 

Alright enough complaining from me for now. Hope everyone reading this has a great week! Happy belated Valentine's!
