Gardening, music, life with MS
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 […]
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 […]
“It’s mankind who holds the keys to Hades power”
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 […]
