Mia had a service training session today. After 45 min she snuck away to find a cool, quiet place to nap under the shrubs. I do the same thing when the #MS fatigue hits. Although, I try to avoid the whole crawling under the shrubs part 😆

Tan-and-white Staffordshire Terrier passed out asleep under arborvitae shrubs after service dog training, stretched out on cool dirt/gravel in the shade with eyes closed and looking completely exhausted.

B-Cell Eviction Day! It was 10° F when I left the house this morning. Usually going out in this temp is a big NOPE for me, but I went with enthusiasm because I’m so over this crap gap.

Downloaded life. Got MS instead. 0/5 stars. Would not recommend.

This is my third round with a staffie. The others were 2-3 years old when I got them so they were a *little* more mellow than this current terrorist 😂

New Year, same symptoms. Same gremlin immune system refusing to read the god damn manual. If you made it to midnight, congrats 🥳. My New Year Eve tradition, like many other days of the year, kicked off around 7PM when I took my meds and crawled under my weighted blanked. #MS still sucks in 2026

Vintage cartoon illustration of a woman joyfully tossing a paper in the air against a pink background, next to text saying she has no New Year’s resolutions and plans to stay awkward, sarcastic, and foul-mouthed.

Which is correct, because New Year’s resolutions are mostly fake promises we make while drunk, exhausted, or emotionally held hostage by a calendar. Nothing magically resets at midnight, my immune system didn’t sure a shit don’t and pretending otherwise is a scam. If resolutions worked, none of us would still be dealing with this bullshit they call MS.

Graphic with four illustrated hats arranged in a 2x2 grid under the caption “Same Shit Different Hat.” The top left shows a Ku Klux Klan hood, top right a baseball cap with a Confederate flag, bottom left a Nazi officer’s cap, and bottom right a red “Make America Great Again” hat. The design uses a distressed vintage style with muted red, green, yellow, and beige tones.

Mia’s officially home — 3 months old, cute as hell, and already running the place. She came all the way from Mississippi, thanks to an amazing rescue that literally hopped in a van last night and drove 1037 miles to get her to me.

Mia, a 3-month-old wheat-and-white Staffordshire Terrier puppy with light blue eyes, running through the grass mid-stride. Her mouth is open in a playful grin, one paw lifted, tail up, and pure joy all over her face.

Here you go...

Yellow T-shirt featuring a humorous protest design. The front shows a simple black outline of an inflatable frog costume above the words ‘I AM ANTIFA.’ The back displays a stylized Arlington Cemetery graphic with rows of headstones and the text ‘Arlington Cemetery Honoring 400,000+ Antifa Warriors.’

For this #MSFriday some light reading and coffee. Glad it’s the last day here. Woke up this morning and my immune system choose vilonece. Ready to go back home to my own bed.

A paper cup of Starbucks coffee labeled “Sam ♥” sits on a small white table next to a book titled Close Encounters of the WTF Kind. Through the large window behind them, a sunny marina with boats, docks, and a crane is visible, with the ocean and blue sky in the distance.

Few days in Bermuda. The sea is calm, the sky is dramatic, and my MS is currently pretending to behave. Let’s see how long that lasts, it’s early 😆 #MSLife #MSSucks

A cloudy Bermuda harbor with turquoise water, stone fort walls, and white-roofed buildings. Several tour buses line the dock while a pink and white ferry waits at the pier. The scene contrasts dark storm clouds with patches of sunlight breaking through.

20 liters of bee syrup a day so far this week. My bees = sugar junkies. My immune system = myelin junkie. Nobody paces themselves at this house 😆 🐝 #MSSucks

Na. I’m an amateur, with too many hobbies 🤓 But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express. I saved one from drowning in the food. She didn’t want to get off my hand.

Close-up of a wet Cordovan honey bee perched on a gloved hand, recovering after being rescued from drowning in bee food. Her fuzzy thorax is damp, and her wings are partially crumpled but intact.

I made the bees some food a few days ago. Was empty the next morning and wasn’t sure if they drank it all or something else got it. So I refilled it, next AM empty. Refilled this morn and spectated to see what was getting it. Barely 40 minutes and it was empty. I think I started a bee crack den.

A close-up photo of a green and blue glass bee feeder surrounded by a large number of honeybees. The bees are densely packed around the metal base dish, actively feeding, while many others are flying around the feeder. The background shows dark mulch and scattered dried leaves.

lol I do have a Murphy bed. However I have a fresh 44x96x60 spot that’s a love mix of red and yellow clay with some shale. 😂😂

A compact, modern room features a wall bed (Murphy bed) with a rich wood finish and black handles, folded up behind a gray sofa. The room has wood-paneled walls, recessed ceiling lights, a red mini fridge, a black mini-split A/C unit above the window, and organized tools and accessories on shelves and a small bench nearby.

The ass crack of dawn.

A serene sunrise over a cemetery, casting long shadows across the grass. A large tree stands to the left, and a CASE excavator with its bucket lowered is visible on the right, partially in frame. The sun is just above the horizon, bathing the scene in a golden glow along a paved path lined with gravestones.

MS Sucks 🎗@itreallydoes· Jul 19

LOL There’s probably around 14k in there. I started a few weeks late into the season. The plan is not to take any honey until next spring, letting them build up their colony which would probably be around 20-25k and have enough honey for themselves stored for winter.

Top-down photo of an open Flow Hive brood box with several frames exposed, densely covered in honeybees. The hive lid, resting nearby on the ground, also has bees clustering on it. The hive is situated on mulch with scattered leaves and plants nearby.

Infusion day. One of two days a year I get to hit back. If my immune system’s gonna freelance and ignore the manual, I’m taking away one of its favorite toys. No B-Cells for you, ya little shit.

Black and white photo of a medical infusion pump on a tall IV pole in a clinical room. The device has multiple screens and tubing connected to a patient, with an IV bag hanging above. Nearby, a cart with drawers and medical supplies is visible next to a curtained-off area and a sunlit window.

Hand sanitizer…. Yeah hand sanitizer. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
