We personally have been alone for Thanksgiving since we’re in VA. I’ve cooked a full meal and determined that it is too much work for the 2 of us. We went to FL one year to be with my daughter, which was nice, but she ate with her father and we went to a restaurant…

A vaccine by Pfizer that is more than 90% accurate has been approved over the weekend, and now today Moderna coronavirus vaccine is proven to be 94.5% effective in preventing the disease. The United States has surpassed 11 million ongoing cases and 1 million cases in less than a week. The coronavirus is running rampant.…

So much going on in the past week. I’ve had a lot on my mind to talk about, but unable to find the time to sit down and write. First and foremost is the election, there is also accomplishing some gardening goals, and then the usual mumbo jumbo going on in my brain. Thankfully my…

I find that having MS brings me back to my “glory days” more often than I would if I didn’t have MS. I wonder if anyone else with MS feels that way. These are great memories for me and they give me great pleasure. I’ll share some: I was such a beach person, water bug,…

Another gorgeous fall day! The temperature is in the mid 60’s, perfect to work outside BUT my knee hurts really bad still so I can’t. My primary physician recommended an ortho doctor and I’ve spent some time seeing if he was covered under my insurance and couldn’t find him listed. This morning I continued to…

Today I would like to let you in on a couple of resources I have found helpful in my journey with MS. The first is a website hosted by Dave Bexfield. He is also a boomer with MS, he has a website, a blog and a newsletter. The second is a website,/magazine put out by…

Well here we are back from the christening in NY. I have to say I’m happy to be home, BUT I’d be happier if my home was in NY! I do love this home and I love the yard, it seems wasted down here with no family or friends to share it with. The main…

Sooo much going on in there that I haven’t been able to sleep. As usual I pass out quickly when I go to bed, but then faithfully anytime between 2 and 4 am, I am awake with my mind going 100 mph. At that point I turn on Nick at Nite, my standby, to watch…

Last week I went for my yearly physical. I really like my primary care doctor, which helps a lot. She also does my gynecological exam, although we skipped this year, (had last year). My bloodwork came out “great, and continue to do whatever I’m doing.” I have an appointment for a mammogram next week, I…

Yesterday my son and his family, including my 4 month old granddaughter left after four wonderful days! It felt so good to have them around, every day waking up and having coffee with them and feeding the baby, holding and kissing her! We actually ate in the dining room, a room, including the formal living…
