Gardening, music, life with MS
I have been making crafts for a long time now. I started a new category when I realized how much of my time it takes and how I would like to share what I make. For the past three years I have been making Christmas themed crafts and looking for a craft fair to sell […]
Today is December 29, 2021. I have not been in a position to write any entries until now. Even so, I’m finding it hard to catch up. December is usually a very busy time, with shopping, wrapping, Christmas cards, and traveling. This month I also participated in my first craft fair, (separate post), watched the […]
This week I had an appointment for a haircut and the woman I’ve been going to has moved the business. I like to drive by ahead of time to see how accessible the location is, but this time I didn’t get a chance. The easiest for me is for my husband to drop me off […]
I thought my last post on Violet would have been the happy ending we wanted for her, but unfortunately I received a phone call from Whitney. She regretfully informed me that they took Violet back to the rescue. My heart sunk. Since her husband travels a lot she tried walking Violet and found her to […]
This is the last time the title will be Diet Update . I am not on a diet and I haven’t been in months. I haven’t ridden my bicycle or exercised at all. The only thing I would consider exercise is gardening, which has been occuring few and far between. I will resume posting on […]

On this day, 20 years ago, my favorite Beatle, George, passed away at the age of 58 from cancer. I bring this up because I didn’t have a blog then and I’ll never forget how I felt that day. Amazing, “My Sweet Lord,” just started playing on the radio. (coincidence, I think not). When it […]
A couple of weeks ago I saw a segment on the local news that an area shelter was asking for people to foster dogs or cats over the Thanksgiving holiday. Since we’re not going anywhere or having company, I emailed hoping to try and foster. I miss my Maggie so much and every time I […]
If someone said that to me, I would respond “Why, what’s going on?” I said this to P as we were leaving Short Pump Town Center. We had gone there to do some Christmas shopping. specifically for his family. As usual, it was a horrible trip. To me it should have been fun, taking our […]
Lately I’ve been taking the back roads driving home from the garden. I see that Virginia is in its prime for fall foliage. No matter how low or overwhelmed I get with thoughts and problems, I cannot express the feeling I get seeing the beautiful colors of autumn. The golds, reds, browns are stunning. With […]
