Key to Happiness

Key to Happiness

I remember when I was a kid I used to dream of living in this huge house. I wanted my house to have a lot of land. I didn’t have a clue as a kid about cleaning a house or maintaining a large piece of property. I didn’t have any idea what a mortgage was or how much property taxes could be on large land lots. I wanted a family. I always wanted to have animals. I even fantasized of…

A family weekend

A family weekend

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…

A good way to start a week

A good way to start a week

Today is a good day. My dad and stepmom drove up from Florida this weekend. This is the first time my dad has been in NY in years. This will be the first time they are both seeing my condo but more importantly it is the first time I’ve seen my dad in a year and a half. I normally go down to Florida once a year but this year I was in Mexico and it was too much for…

Cutting vacation short

Cutting vacation short

Unbelievable but I’m leaving today instead of a Sunday. There is inclement weather in NY for the entire weekend.

Leaving from Cancun on JetBlue has one flight per day. Every day the planes were just about booked but today or Thursday. My daughter has to get back Tuesday to college…

Partly sunny humid Florida

Partly sunny humid Florida

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…

Leaving on a jet plane…a visit with my parents

Leaving on a jet plane…a visit with my parents

I think that I use that line every time I go to Florida. Although I know I’m coming back on Monday. I’m excited I haven’t seen my father in a year. That’s a long time. I speak to him frequently and we visit via phone but I miss his hugs and I’m really looking forward to getting my hug. My step mom and me, we were always up earlier than everybody so we always have morning coffee together. It became…
