Away for quite a while

Hello everyone! It's been awhile since I've posted, but I have been checking in every now and then. Since my diagnosis in 2017 I've gone from completely beside myself to feeling like a MS veteran. Just as I felt like I was finally getting a bit of a grip on things, covid-19 hits our country. Good thing I was already pretty much an expert at isolating. As with anything, even through a pandemic, life must go on. So my latest challenge occurs in two weeks. My partner has accepted a transfer to Santa Barbara California with her company. Although everything is pretty much taken care of, where the move is concerned, it's still a bit nerve-wracking to have to travel from Colorado to California in the middle of this pandemic and all of the different rules set for different states we'll be going through. I am very much looking forward to being oceanside and hope the adjustment isn't too stressful. I will miss the beautiful mountain scenery of Colorado. I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.

I was dx in 2017 also so I can understand be what you’ve gone thru. Without the guiding hands on. This site i would still be lost.😋😋. In that time I’ve gone from wide open to a power chair. I hope you’re doing better than me.😀.

Good luck on your move.

Santa Barbara and the coast north are also beautiful (though not in the same way as Colorado) so you will have an opportunity to add to your repertoire of outdoor experiences. And when the mountains call, the Sierra Nevada is not far away. May the move be smooth. May you be well.

I hope the move goes well. I would love to be near a beach and would greatly appreciate the weather conditions.
