Gardening, music, life with MS
I haven’t written here in almost 3 weeks. That is because I have been upset and losing sleep over something that is out of my control. It has to do with my son and his girlfriend buying a house together and selling his. I absolutely HATE the house they are buying! They are in a […]
I was watching country music’s 50th anniversary last week and an artist called Jelly Roll came on and performed a song that really resonated with me and I had to write it down. The lyric is: “I only talk to God when I need a favor, so who the hell am I to expect a […]
When I lived in New York I listened to Q104.3 FM. I got to be familiar with the different DJ’s and always listened to the “12:00 Beatle Block,” with Scot Muni, (who has long since passed away). They continue with this Beatle Block to this day. Anyway, thanks to satellite radio, I can still listen […]
I happened to weigh myself on the morning of my 65th birthday. 146.8, gaining 3 lbs in one month. All I can say is WOW! I’m finally ready to start calorie counting and riding my stationary bike again. I had seen these commercials for Sonobello, removing body fat by laser. The results were stunning and […]
July 8, 1958, that’s it, 65 years ago. There is no stopping it. the number just keeps getting bigger and bigger. My daughter sent me a picture taken five years ago for my 60th. My kids surprised me and I was very grateful. That year I had wanted to skydive but was not healthy enough […]
We were in Myrtle Beach Thursday thru Sunday. The first two days we argued constantly. It was always, “what do you want for breakfast, lunch, dinner?” The man is ruled by his stomach. If I didn’t feel like eating, we still had to go. I had never been in Myrtle Beach, I had previously driven […]
I love being at the ocean. I always have, until now. Back Story: Growing up my parents always took us on vacations, most of them involved beaches, whether it be lakes or most times the ocean. They loved the beach, especially my mother. We’ve been to Miami Beach, Bermuda, Long Island Beaches, Virginia Beach, and […]
When we got back from Myrtle Beach it was very hot! I wanted to cut some flowers and bring them in the house so P actually came out and helped me. Everything looks so beautiful right now, most all of the perennials are blooming. Below is what I decided to do with them. My absolute […]
One of my latest projects, (I finished months ago) was repainting a newel that I had finished years ago and had out in the garden. I had P drill a hold in the bottom and insert rebar so I can stick it in the ground. It was red, yellow, blue and green, (see picture). I […]
Last August I received a call from Holiday Inn Vacation Club. I received that call because I’m a member of their IHG Rewards Program. I don’t know why I listened. We did this once in New Hampshire and were there for hours! Anyway I listened and the deal was: I could have a 4 day […]
