  • It’s a Sad,Sad, Situation…..

    Today I am sad. I’m sad because of several things. I’m feeling neglected again. There is no connection between me and my husband at all. We are going through a heat wave, 3 days over a hundred degrees. Staying in with him is worse than being alone. Usually he works outside all day but in…

  • Groundhog Day

    Since Corona virus it seems that most people are experiencing, “Groundhog Day,” where every day runs into the next and it is hard for them to resolve themselves to this “new life.” I live Grounndhog Day every day and have been for awhile. I am a creature of habit and I like things to be…

  • “I’m So Tired”

    I haven’t been able to write because I’ve been busy or sleeping. I’m back to volunteering at the gift shop, yeah! The heat in VA has set in for the rest of the summer so unless I volunteer, I’ll be a prisoner. Well also the Corona virus cases are going up. For a few weeks…

  • 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…

  • Kudos to me

    6/24 Today is the day I went back to the botanical gardens.  They are opening on Thursday, June 25 to members,  with limited days and times and scheduled visits. Today, Wednesday it is open to volunteers only.  I made my appointment for first thing  at 10 am to beat the heat . I purposely didn’t…

  • 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…
