Category: My Life with MS

  • Mind Full

    Wow, what a weekend! I woke up this morning sooo achy, my back was killing me. Once I get up and move around I’m ok. My husband was home and spent the whole weekend working on his trailer and tractor to sell, (this is the 2nd weekend). Sometimes I feel more alone when he’s here…

  • Hot, hot, hot

    Another day in the 90’s. Nobody should live in the south without a pool or ocean nearby. I’m happy to say that I have been posting everything I had in a word document for this blog in the appropriate categories thanks to help from Bluesky Pro. I can’t call till Monday due to holiday weekend.…

  • Getting Closer to Posting

    I can’t believe it is July already. Three months since this Corona virus shutdown. Anyway, I finally signed up for Bluesky Pro. This is unlimited help to develop my website for a month. I made my 1st phone call the other day and I explained that I started the blog on my iPad using Pages,…

  • Simple ain’t so simple

    6/28 I would love to be able to get up and just slip into a pair of flip flops!  This isn’t possible for several reasons;  my feet are always ice cold, even if they feel warm to the touch, I feel cold; most important is that it takes more physical effort to walk in flip…

  • Master Gardener College

    Today I started Master Gardener College on line, whoo, hoo! I did figure out how to participate, which is huge since I consider myself technologically challenged.  There was the introduction and a talk on insects, and the 2nd class on birds of VA.  I still have questions and I put in a phone call to…

  • More daily frustrations

    6/23 I am tired. It’s 11:30 am. When you have MS, everything is so challenging. I was in the bathroom cutting my toenails, actually sitting on the toilet bowl, (the light is good).  I went into the bedroom to get dressed and all of a sudden I had to pee, really bad! You would think…

  • Friends #1

    6/21 I’m a little bored today, feeling like a prisoner, usually I feel this way in August. It’s too hot to go outside plus I couldn’t even if I wanted to, I could hardly walk with my knee.I don’t want to go to the doctor, but if it keeps up I will. Still haven’t contacted…

  • Summer is here

    6/20 First day of summer!  It’s been rainy here the past couple of days so I haven’t been outside. Plus,  I have a new pain.  My left knee is swollen and it is harder to walk than usual.  Tooth update; I forgot, the dentist told me to stop the pain medication on Sunday, 6/14 and…
