My new song obsession. The chorus should be my anthem. I could use that kind of confidence every day. https://youtu.be/u0qYUsW6YsQ I’ll smile, I know what it takes to fool this town I’ll do it till the sun goes down And all through the night time Oh, yeah, I’ll tell you what you want to hear I’ll turn my head and shed a tear It’s never the right time, yeah I’ll put my armor on, show you how strong I am…
If you’re in New Yorker living on the South Shore, you know Jones Beach. If you’re live anywhere else you have no idea what I’m talking about. Basically, Jones Beach is one of the Long Island Beaches. Since Long Island is actually an island, we many beaches. I guess Jones Beach is the major one. There are many fields to it, they have theater for concerts, many food stands and a huge draw of people each summer. This memorial day…
I had my electrician here yesterday doing a new outlet on my balcony. He move my door, my front door, into an open position so he can come and go as needed. When it was done I said to my aid could you lock the door. She said she was running out to take the garbage out and to get the mail. When she came back in she never lock the door. It was hot yesterday so I have all…
My MS therapist was here yesterday. She was doing some balance stuff with me in the pool observing my core. She said you should be walking now without the rollator. Not without help mind you, but with canes. My back is so straight I should be able to be upright, not leaning over with the rollator. So that is the new game plan, to start teaching my legs to walk again with two canes for balance. We did a practice…
I don’t understand how people don’t want the unconditional love of a pet. I think everybody should be pet people either dog or cat. I’ve had them both. Some of my cats were prissy, but most were very affectionate. Although my cat’s affection was nothing like my dogs. When I had by cats, and I had six at one point, my dad always said you’re a dog person. He was right. Not to mention that I’m actually allergic to cats…
Can we talk about handicap parking? I know I’ve had blogs about this before, but it’s still a very sore topic for me. I understand that there’s a requirement that a certain amount of spots, based on the size the property and the total number of spots allocated, have to be given to handicap parking. It just never seems to be enough. Why is it never enough? Because everybody seems to get one. It’s not for the truly disabled anymore….
My condo gave me an assigned spot. There are six handicap spots in front of my building. Normally I leave in the morning and I’m back in the mornings, I get a spot back. However if I go out towards the afternoon, sometimes I don’t get a spot. The other close spots could also get taken pretty easily especially at night. If I’m having dinner with a friend, when I come home, parking is a problem. I can’t walk that…

I might have solved my own weight problem. I think I figured out what was causing me to put on weight and not take it off even on a diet. The answer was fruit. FRUIT!!!! Yup, you heard it right. I was on a mostly plant-based diet but I ate a ton of fruit. Fruit was always my breakfast and fruit was always my snacks. Those frozen grapes. Normally I only would eat frozen grapes during the summer months to…
I’ve been asked this question quite a number of times so I thought I’d address this in my blog. I’m asked, do you feel any better since you’ve been on Ocrevus? Where I’d love to give a wonderful answer here, the answer is NO. however it’s also very important to answer, I also don’t feel worse. When I was on Tysabri, I was still feeling worse month to month. That’s why we made the switch originally to Rituxan, which is…
