Two Years Later- Still December Dates

An MS’er looks at the calendar   While this blog was written two years ago, since I just returned from the same trip, and dates do not change, I thought I would offer it to you again.  Mostly because I am way too wiped out to come up with anything new this week…. It’s the … Read more here…

The Yucky State Grinch

A multiple sclerosis book review, sort of….   Once again this New England girl is visiting a state in the southwest and I’m having trouble adjusting. I do not like this state. I won’t mention it by name here as I don’t want to offend any of my readers.  Perhaps they actually like this state.  … Read more here…

Feeling a Little Icky, All Over Again

An MS inspired parody   Funny how things come around.

I have my lists; all the MS helpful tip … Read more here…

Gina Blue is Disabled Too

A chronic illness companion My car and I go back a long way, 10 years to be exact.  She was a pretty, blue, 2005, used Toyota Corolla that I bought in 2004. No, that is not a typo or a result of MS brain fog.  Weird as it seems, the 2005 cars came out early … Read more here…

Portuguese Soup with an MS Twist

A multiple sclerosis culinary event   It was a privilege growing up Portuguese, especially when it came to Portuguese food.  Portuguese delicacies are awesome. What?  You don’t believe me? Trust me.  I have way too many extra pounds on my 5’3 frame to prove it. We Portuguese folks have our own veggie soup and even … Read more here…
