When mom’s away….

The boys must figure out how to still eat 😂 while I’m away in Miami, I have prepped some easy dump dinners for them to just dump in the instant pot or dump in a sheet pan.

🙌 Bolognese sauce in the Instant Pot
🙌 Sheet Pan Brat Hash
🙌 Chicken Burrito Bowl

Easy Peasy. They can have a delicious warm meal in minutes.

Want one of these recipes for yourself?!! Comment below which one and I’ll send it over!

Now…take me to the sunshine ☀️

There was nothing to be worried about after all!

I saw the smooth pucks on the edges of the bottom of the shoe and was instantly worried that I would slip and fall outdoors. But when it got nice jn NYC, I got brave….and I walked.

They are so comfortable! And not at all scary! They glide instead of catch on every different terrain change. I was absolutely shocked by how much MORE confident the shoes made me.

And my brace fit nicely in the shoe as well.

And the color 😍 well the compliments say it all.

Have questions about this shoe specifically designed for drop foot?! I’d love to help or give my two cents…drop me a comment below ⬇️

Evolution of spring break…at home with 3 boys…in NYC…and it’s COLD!

I always go in optimistic.

With lofty ideas and fun in all of the plans.

And then it’s Wednesday and I can’t do another moment of loud noises or screams of fun because I’m so overstimulated and unregulated on top of the pain from overdoing it and the inability to sleep because everyone’s schedule is off and I’m hanging on by a thread and just hoping to get a call from anybody who wants to take even one of my kids for a play date in order to squash even a moment of fighting so that my head feels peaceful….even just for an hour..

So yeah. How’s your spring break going?

Today I choose to focus on what I CAN do instead of what I can’t….

Who is with me?

Sometimes I flirt with the “what ifs”…

But in reality…
I wouldn’t be who I am today without the challenges.

MS has given me:
❤️the knowledge that I am in fact stronger than I know
❤️Grit when giving up is easier
❤️Insight into the way the body works and how outside factors influence a reaction
❤️Patience with myself
❤️Taught empathy to my children
❤️The will to find answers
❤️the platform to inform others in the hopes of creating a community so nobody feels alone

If I dwelled on what I think I’m missing out on or what life could have been….what is going great would pass me by…and there is a lot of great!

It’s hard to think of MS as a gift…but think of all of the positive things that has happened because of it. There are good things that come out of the struggle.

List the good.
Remember the good.

You are who you are because of it ❤️ And we are definitely all warriors

UPDATE!!
I have a new hematologist. Who is great. But the news wasn’t great. Ugh.
