I raised a responsible kid

I raised a responsible kid

My baby girl went out last night and didn’t get back to her dorm until almost 7:00 am. Does it make me a bad mom to say I’m slightly impressed? She is finally enjoying the city life with a mixture of high school friends and a few college friends. It’s been a tough road so far, her first semester at college, so I’m so happy that she is out and about in the city over the weekend. Well right now…

Thank you to all the readers of multiple experiences

Thank you to all the readers of multiple experiences

Id love to hear from my blogging friends on the cost to run their blog. For me my two biggest price tags are WordPress and ipage. WordPress charges me over $200 every other year and ipage is roughly $50 per year. I once in a blue moon do Facebook marketing which hasn’t helped much. I do market with a blog that has a very strong following, that has made a little impact. However other than that, I don’t do much…

Reach out and touch someone

Reach out and touch someone

Ever since I was little girl, and my parents were divorced, my dad would call and make his phone calls to us like a little visit. He would see us every week on Sunday but he’d make sure the calls he made during the week felt like we were visiting too.  Those phone calls however long they lasted, we always got his undivided attention. Those phone calls always felt like a visit from Dad. To this day I am now…

Where is the real October weather

Where is the real October weather

I’m wearing shorts on October 25th in New York. My windows are open in my house but there is no such thing as global warming. Oh please. This is crazy. https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/new-york-ny/10007/october-weather/349727. In case you actually care, everyday it’s been higher than normal this October. I always said I wanted weather like San Francisco 70 degrees and beautiful each day, guess I’m getting it except we get humidity. Yesterday was so humid and MS doesn’t like humid. It’s like starting five steps…

Joining weight watchers again

Joining weight watchers again

I made a decision yesterday to join weight watchers again. I’m up about 10 lbs from goal weight which isn’t terrible but that weight has been creeping up slowly since I stopped working out in June. Yes, vegans can gain weight. I’m just eating a lot of vegan crap and I can’t seem to get it under control on my own. I need the accountability of facing a scale each week. Unfortunately, sometimes when I’m on my own and I’m in…

Oh yeah I remember another manic Monday

Oh yeah I remember another manic Monday

Good morning. I am not sure where my post is going to go today because I have no idea what I want to say. I have a headache again. I’ve been getting them more and more frequently. Luckily they have been going away with ibuprofen but I’m on medicine everyday for headache/migraines, why am I getting them? They were really bad when I was sick last week but I had one yesterday and now I have one today. I guess…

Forks over Knives Harvest Moon Squash Soup

Forks over Knives Harvest Moon Squash Soup

I made this recipe and I have to be honest,I hated the taste with the sun dried tomatoes. However I learned a very handy tip when cooking. If food taste too acidic a sprinkle of baking powder can regulate the taste of any sauce or soup so you can save it. I made this a second time without the sun dried tomatoes and it was excellent. Have a wonderful fall Sunday. Harvest Moon Squash Soup Ingredients 1 medium butternut squash…

My little French bulldog protector

My little French bulldog protector

I am finally feeling a little better. I got some Musinex yesterday which helped but the pounding in my head finally stopped too. I still don’t feel great but the fog that swept over my head and body has mostly lifted. I must again say with warning to anyone on an immunosuppressive drug be smart around others with any kind of sickness. I’ve was on Tysabri for almost two years and Rituxan for over a year and a half and…

My first cold since starting Ocrevus

My first cold since starting Ocrevus

You might be asking, why does it matter that I’m taking Ocrevus and I have a cold? It’s important to remember what Ocrevus does. Ocrevus depletes B lymphocytes, a white blood cell in our immune system. Ocrevus is an autoimmune suppressing drug. Something as simple as a cold, may not have the same effect on me as it does the person I caught the cold from. For me, this cold has put me in an psuedo-MS attack. A pesuedo-attack is…
