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…

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…

The past week has been tough. I feel like I have multiple personalities, each coming out to help me cope with my daily struggles. One day feeling like I am going to explode, heart palpitations, not sleeping and feeling overwhelmed with every thought. The next day, singing with the radio and being silly at the…

Today I’m going to talk about things that are not a real big deal but in the scheme of things, they bother me: My Bad – I have to ask, “what the hell is that?” I understand what this expression means, can’t you just say “sorry, or I was wrong.” I guess it covers everything…

Today is Tuesday. My cousin C, #2, came Friday night with her husband and daughter, A. They also brought their dog, Franklin, and A’s dog, Rosy, (more on that later). We were originally going to get pizza, but our favorite place was away on vacation. I had small potatoes to use up and a ton…
