Mood has improved from last week, I am happy to say. However I might have another tough week coming up. My daughter is away and my aide is on vacation. . I chose not to replace the aide anyway because I really hate having new people in the house. They don’t know where anything is, they are usually scared of the dogs and I have to make idle chit chat that can be exhausting. It puts too much stress on…
Many, many years ago I went to London on my spring break vacation during college. I’m sorry for all those who did the Florida mayhem, my trip was so much better. I was 18 years old, my sister was probably 21. She was studying abroad and spent months seeing much of Europe during that year. For me, this was my first trip abroad and London was my only destination but to this day, it is still my favorite city and…
I have two oils that I’ve been putting on my toes for the last 8 months daily, melaleuca and oregano. This is used for the fungus that no cream was working to eliminate. It is supposed to be put on 4 times daily but there is no way I could do that so I shoot for once a day. They were looking better although far from cured. I knew it was a slow process even when it was put on…
I had the best nights sleep I had in a long time. I woke up once at 1am to use the bathroom and then slept right on through until 7:22 when the bathroom called again. That is a long stretch of time for me. I needed that!!! I could still sleep more truthfully but it was time to start my day. Plus my cell phone went off and I answered it. I normally go to the gym today but decided…
First day on vacation and it is completely pouring outside. Like monsoon pouring at times. My poor daughter is wearing a sweatshirt and sweatpants trying to stay warm. She’s had a headache all day partly from her cold and partly because of the weather. I’m sneezing now too which isn’t good. I too felt sick and last night I had to sleep in a bathrobe because I was freezing. Not off to the finest first day here but we are…
It’s a little warm in Florida. Great for most people, not so much for this MS patient. I purposely come down in January or early February because the weather is great. 70 something by day 60 something by night. Not this trip. It’s 80 degrees and a little humid down here. At night it’s a cooling 78. I realized no way could I do my Beachbody exercise program. The house is too hot and outside is too hot. I said…
In today’s special edition Multiple Experiences blog we are on location in sunny Florida. Well ok so far it’s slightly overcast and 67 degrees but there are Palm trees, how bad could that be? I’m sitting next to my dad in his backyard at his little table. My first cup of coffee is long gone. It’s amazing how enjoyable a cup coffee can be in another state and without a puppy fur ball named Zoey trying to drink it. Dads…
I’m all packed up and ready to go. My daughter Mikayla and I are going to Florida to visit my dad and stepmom. I’m already exhausted and I haven’t even gone to the airport yet. My final morning items had to be packed all while watching the puppy. Zoey wasn’t being very cooperative to say the least. I just picked up the dog sitter now. I’m very lucky I have her. She loves my dogs almost as much as I…
