Gardening, music, life with MS
In early March I finally got my new 2024 Toyota Grand Hilander Hybrid. It has the bells and whistles that I wanted including the black wheels. Most important was the automatic rear hatch opening. I had to wait 2 months to get the hand controls installed. My current 2005 Toyota Hilander doesn’t have an automatic […]
I woke up this morning with pain radiating from my left hip through my entire leg, throbbing pain. I was laying on my left side. I rolled over onto my back and it slowly dissipated. I desperately want to sleep on my right side but I won’t. That is the position I was in when […]
I am still looking to adopt my new little friend. I have been using the website PetFinder.com This has not been productive. Every pet I’ve applied for, I’ve heard nothing back and one even came back on weeks after I applied. There is nothing in my applications that woud affect my ownership for a new […]
I recently saw an interview with Post Malone in which he just recorded a country album with help from Luke Combs, Dolly Parton and others. The reason I’m mentioning this at all is because of some of his tattoos. I am not one of his fans, I really don’t have any opionion about him at […]
144.6, this has been going on for almost a year. A pound or two down and then up again. Last month I wrote that I stopped eating out of boredom and not eating when I’m not hungry. This month I’ve been trying to not eat anything that has no nurtritional value. That encompasses A LOT […]
I love cut flowers in my house. Better yet, when they come out of my garden. Two weeks ago Kroger’s had a dozen roses for 6.99. You can’t go wrong, right? For lack of my favorite color roses, (yellow), I bought cream ones. They looked beautiful for about four days before they started dropping, drooping, […]
I read in the paper the other day that the concert was on August 1, 1971. Wow, 53 years ago. I was 13 years old and I remember this; I was already a huge Beatle fan and George was my favorite. I lived the album, “Living in the Material World.” It meant everythig to me, […]
This summer the heat has been relentless. Week after week, sometimes with thunderstorms in the evening, there is no relief. The weeds are out of control. Who says if you pull them by the roots they won’t come back? Weeds have seasons, like all plants. Anyway, as I pull in and out of the driveway, […]
I finally got my new wheelchair! It was delivered on Tuesday morning. It’s very different than my existing wheelchair. This one is aluminum instead of titanium. I have no leg attachments, which I never used. There is a curved bar that goes straight down with a folding foot rest. I was able to choose a […]
