Gardening, music, life with MS
That is how I’m feeling since my husband, P came home from London. I had felt so good and proud of myself while he was gone, as I wrote last week. He comes back and asks, how I’m doing on the dresser that I’m finishing. Well of course I hasn’t worked on the dresser while […]
I have to say that I’m sure this was out there and I only just learned about it, so it is new to me and anyone else who has heard it for the first time. Anyway, On CBS Sunday Morning, Ted Koppel was doing a story on Mayberry, North Carolina.. A fictional small town from […]
We all know that I have been trying for over a year to gracefully let my hair go grey. I have had it stripped and foiled blonde three times until the cost was around 200 dollars, that’s a lot for every 6 weeks, (that’s stretching it). It’s ok now, mostly blonde with about an 1 […]
I am a procrastinator. Every year my husbands company gives you until the end of September to accomplish four or five health related items to complete and they will give you $200 towards your medical savings plan. Of course he finishes everything on time and bugs me to complete mine. One of these items is […]
Since we came back from our trip I haven’t been feeling very well. I might be tired from the trip, which I am sure I am, and that maybe has triggered some symptoms to flare up. I could be feeling weaker as a result of bad eating or lack of exercise. I always have to […]
I was in Long Island this year. Eerily it was the same type of day as in 2001, sunny, in the 70’s, with a beautiful blue sky. In the morning I watched some of the memorial. What was touching was how these survivors of family members who died that day, are still so affected and […]
Home to me will always be the lower Hudson Valley in New York. Our trip North went very well. The traffic on 95 wasn’t too bad. We got there early enough to see our granddaughter. I got to see her every day we were there and I am so joyful about that. She is walking, […]
We are heading to New York tomorrow morning to see our granddaughter, who is now walking! I really can’t wait. First thing in the morning I am having my hair cut. I am thinking of doing something drastic like very very short and letting the grey come in full time, or more likely a true […]
Finally the weather has broke and we’ve had a few cooler days. I’ve been able to get out in the garden for a couple of mornings and was able to weed and clean up the front perennial garden. The wiregrass, (which I’m constantly trying to eradicate), again found its way into the garden. I also […]
In my day to day activities at some level, I have accepted the fact that I have MS. I still do my crafts, gardening to an extent, cook, shop, and volunteer. I have no hesitation using my wheelchair, that is freedom for me. I use my hand controls in my Highlander because again, it is […]
