Gardening, music, life with MS
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 […]
A few weeks ago I took another Mixed Media class at the garden. It was a 3 hour class and I wasn’t that impressed with what we did, (although I did screw up). It could have been because the time constraints of the class that the project was easy, ( again I screwed up). Here […]

A couple of weeks ago, (4th of July week) we stayed at our home in Wilmington, North Carolina. We were on a mission to buy furniture. I wanted to spend time in the pool. Needless to say, all week was spent furniture shopping. On Friday, (we were leaving the next day) I finally got to […]
“I’m so tired and feeling so upset,” * I’m ready to accept defeat. Keeping up with politics is exhausting. The latest is that the judge, Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointeee, shockingly has dismissed the charges against him, (probably one of the strongest cases), in the mishandling of classified documents in Florida. Another case that we […]
I don’t have too much to say, (believe it or not), but I’m not surprised that with the current politics it was bound to happen to him or President Biden. I am surprised that it was him. Most of the violence since Trump has been aimed at Democrats. What bothers me is that it is […]
I’m pleased, 143.4, almost down 2 lbs. Not much but something. I have been watching what I eat and I made a major change. It used to be that if I was full and Pete brought out ice cream, carrot cake or some other sweet I would eat it. Now I recognize when I’m full […]
For a couple of years now we’ve had feral cats show up on our deck. The first one was black with beautiful green eyes and very small. I gave him/her some food and they came back daily. I tried to get the cat to trust me. I sat in a chair right next to the […]
