Normalcy...

Our house is finally starting to get back to normal. Today is the first day that hubby will go back to studying, preparing for his quals and working on other PhD 'stuff'. Tomorrow will be the first day back at church.

He got his Tysabri infusion on Thursday morning and could almost instantly tell that it was working on the MS symptoms. He still felt lousy on Thursday and Friday (normal Tysabri infusion reactions) but by Saturday he was well enough to go to the grocery store with me! This is the first extended trip out of the house that he's had since the relapse hit on Wednesday, September 22nd. Yay! We stayed home all day yesterday and spent time relaxing and getting housework done. I cooked some chicken in the crockpot and now have two 2-cup baggies full of chicken ready for quick weeknight meals (I used the 3rd bag for dinner last night!).

In other news...

  • Bella has gone 3 nights in a row without having an accident all night long! Yay! Maybe we're done with the middle of the night potty trips?!?! :) She continues to be a LOT of work, but such a joy! I'm constantly looking at her doing silly things and smiling. I got some video last night of her running like mad up and down the hallway with her 'baby'. I'm hoping I can figure out how to edit it so I can post it. It's too cute!

  • I have a follow up appointment with my endocrinologist tomorrow. All of my test results are in...so we'll see what the scoop is. Part of me is hoping that there is absolutely nothing wrong, while the other half hopes there is some easy fix solution to explain all of these sudden weird symptoms. Either way, I'll know soon enough...

  • It rained from Monday through Friday of last week. It was beautiful and sunny on Saturday, and then started raining again on Sunday...and it's still raining/cloudy now. I'm looking forward to a stretch of sun! During all of the raining, our street flooded and I couldn't get out of my driveway Friday morning! It was really crazy!
 Well, I suppose those are the highlights for now. I'll post another update after my appointment tomorrow.
