Welcome to my blog. I have had ALS for 10 years now.


Since I started this blog in June 2008 I've had amazing feedback. Family, friends, people from all over North America, Australia, Scotland, England, and places I can't recall, have commented, encouraged and corresponded. I had no idea when Cynthia taught me how to set this up, how much I would love posting and how many people would read it. I want to say THANK YOU to everyone who has helped propel this therapeutic exercise into a daily routine. All of you, both friends and visitors, are now part of my blog family. Welcome.

Shopping in the sunshine



I had a superiferous day! A friend helped me go shopping for a new rain/wind jacket-- one that zips from the bottom as well as the top. This will make sitting in my power chair on blustery days more comfortable. We were successful at Taiga Works.
The day was bright with sunshine and beautiful autumn leaves. I had my chair fully charged and was up for the adventure along Broadway. My friend showed me all the ramps into coffee shops and the elevator to Home Depot, HomeSense and Winners. We searched for bargains, laughed about most everything, and got a healthy dose of vitamin D.

I'm glad you got out for the day. I imagine it is getting cold up there. Here in Florida it was a warm mid-80's today. Now, tonight is a different story. The computer screen is flashing 48 degrees to me. Probably nothing to you, but brisk to us :). Have a great week!
