FUMS Friday Night 6-Pack 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

 

Hello friends --So - first of all - it's not Friday. Well - it is when I'm writing this but - I can't send it until Saturday because the mail server I have won't allow me to send over a certain threshold in one day.And then I got real busy on Saturday - so - sorry - it's not going out until Sunday! Friday I sent out invitations to have everyone join me for an FUMS Virtual Happy Hour.  When I went to send this FN6P out - it said "NO" - actually it said "no unless you pay more money." To which I said - "it can wait until tomorrow to go out. The FUMS community will understand." And thusly - the FUMS Friday Night 6-Pack - Day Late (or Several) and a Dollar 💵 Short Edition was born!***Note about the FUMS Virtual Happy Hour. It WOULD HAVE been wonderful. It WILL BE wonderful - but this first one - WAS NOT WONDERFUL. There were a TON of you wonderful FUMS'ers that jumped on what was to be a wonderful, 15-minute chat to just check in with each other and raise a glass to say "FUMS." Unfortunately - I got "Zoom Bombed".  I didn't even know that was a thing! It is. People with ill intent find out about a group Zoom call and "bomb" it - this time with filthy words and porn imagery!  Not what I had in mind. So - we'll try it again - now I know how better to control it. I'll let you know when I set the next one up. Hope you'll join me.Lots to get to so - let's get into it:1.  I started a new series on the blog I'm calling "Operation Organization" because I've been inspired to organize my life lately. So - I'm sharing projects as I do them. Today's post was all about getting your username and passwords under control - AND - organizing your home screen on your mobile phone.  Read more here: Digital Disarray2. Did you know that Dr. Terry Wahls  revised and updated her book The Wahls Protocol??  Yep - she did. And friend of the FUMS community and Wahls Health Practitioner, Alene Brennan, is hosting a free online book club. It’s an opportunity to be guided through the book to gain a better understanding of the protocol. It starts this week! Click here to join and learn more details. 3. Here is a GOOD source of information about CoVid19 for folks with chronic disease. Global Healthy Living Foundation4.  Is remission possible in Secondary Progression Multiple Sclerosis?? Great question. This article holds the answer: Remission in SPMS?  5.  Anxiety - a companion to a lot of us with MS. But THIS - this Coronavirus anxiety? Well - that's a whole different level, am I right?? My friend Lauren Selfridge wrote this wonderful article with tips on dealing with it! And take a really deep breath now and again. That's been helping me lately.  7 Tips for Coping with Coronavirus Fear When You're Chronically Ill6.  A new MS drug has been approved for RRMS, SPMS, and CIS - but due to the pandemic, the company is not sure when it will be available.  New FDA Approved Drug for MSThat's all folks.

Sometimes it helps the stress, just to say "F-U-M-S"
