What’s your worst and MS symptom, besides fatigue ? At first I would’ve always answered the numbness, but eventually you get used to it. Not used to it in the sense that it feels normal, use to it in the sense that this is how it is. My hands and fingers are so numb all the time. I’ve lost all tactile feeling and sometimes can’t tell the difference between an item that is wet or dry, cotton or silk and…
Everyone around me seemed to take a deep breath now that I’m not fully vegan anymore. On Thanksgiving I let a couple of things slide, but the only things I really added to my diet is fish, low-fat ground turkey and chicken. I pulled out all rice. I’m sticking to quinoa or bulgur or the lower calorie higher fiber grains as per weight watchers. Other than that change, I’m still making my vegan recipes. I still try to keep the…
I’m going to have many posts about these oils in the future but because I’m packing and moving, my time is limited. Let me start by saying that my first introduction to these essential oils was at my Spirit Junkie Masterclass last year. I had a terrible headache and no medicine to help it. I ended up at the booth for DoTERRA and they put on me a mixture of something and rubbed it into my temples and hairline. Other…
First, I’m going to update you on my yesterday‘s post regarding my beautiful daughter and her boyfriend, they are back together and all is fine. It’s amazing about these two, as much as I can’t stand the relationship sometimes, they’re perfect for each other in a lot of ways. He’s just as messed up as she is. He truly loves her and she truly loves him. If they can both just grow up and communicate with each other their relationship…
If I ever thought my breakups were bad, it was just because I never experienced my child go through a breakup. Omg, this must have been the worst 36 hours of my life. I think I prefer the biweekly tears than go through these last 36 hours again. They had a fight and her boyfriend decided he wanted a break for a week. Then my daughter got swept up by her imagination and did a drive by of his house….
Happy Thanksgiving for those in the US. We have a tradition, started by my sister, that we go around the table to say what we are thankful for each year. This year I decided to blog my list. My daughter. She is and will always be the center of my world. She is the gift I get to keep watching evolve each year and change and become the beautiful picture she is today. She is my proudest moment in any…

My number is 22. It is the number I was drawn to probably because of my birthday. However 22 is my sign when I need help from something other than myself. I never take it from the usual places like the clock, it’s easy to catch a time of 8:22. I’m talking buses and billboards, bumper stickers or tv shows things more coincidental. I feel at peace when I see my 22 like I’m on the right track. Why? 22…
My birthday is in 2 days. November 22. I haven’t paid much attention to it with everything else going on, could you blame me? It’s tough to go through and pack 11 years worth of stuff. It’s tougher when you have MS. I could hire people to pack and move for me but that’s a lot of money, so I’ve been doing a little each day with my aide. I have only so much stamina in me each day so…
ranberry carrot cakeEven though I won’t be strictly vegan, I’ll never eat the way I used to. This recipe was just recently added to the Forks Over Knives app and it looked great. I have all the ingredients but cranberries so I’m getting them today. I’m also making a cream of spinach soup this week, something new so maybe I’ll have that posted next week. I’d rather have this cake though, yum… Cranberry Carrot Cake with Chocolate Ganache Ingredients 1⅛…
