MS Walk

Friday night I decided I was going to register for the MS Walk in my neighborhood.

This was to be my big walk. I was so committed to finally walking 3 miles to raise money for NMSS but as we all know when you have MS things don't always go as planned.

I have had so many medical problems this year and a major relapse ( first one in 2 1/2 years) that I can't possibly attempt it this year. I will however raise as much money as I can.
I'll try to keep you posted without sounding like I am bragging. ( which is not what I wantto do).

I do want people to know how much I appreciate their support because I know many of you read my blog.
As of this date I have raised $350.00. yippee !

Let's find a cure Everybody.

handi plac




This is our newest product.




It is called the Handiplac and it is great for those of who use a blue handi placard.




I don't know about you but when you open the car door on a somewhat windy day the placard blows off the rear view mirror and sometimes out the car.


I'm not into running around parking lots chasing my tag.




This manufacturer approached us about selling this product and we are the only one (besides themselves) representingthem. We are honored to have this product in our line.




Please got to http://www.themsshoppe.com/ and read all about it.




Legislative Day

yesterday I participated in Legislative Day. An event puttogether by the wisconsin chapter of the NMSS.

I have gone to this event many times and each time I find it so much fun. One of the best events I have ever taken part in.

It was rainy so a few people cancelled. I am sure it nothing to do with the fact that our MS bodies don't budge in the rain.
NMSS organizes several buses so we don't all have to drive there and struggle to find a place to park. The bus I rode in on started in Green Bay, then went to Oshkosh, then FDL.
Last year I was the ONLY one from from FDL. How sad. People want stuff from their legislators but are tooooooooo lazy to do it themselves,

I once again rose to the occasion and stepped forward to do it for them.

I met some wonderful people. And I spent some time with friends.

Thanks Wisconsin chapter -NMSS for putting on such a wonderful event.

Have a great rainy Day !

It reads " Life is a trip when you have MS".


It is for all of us who trip over our own feet.

so relaxed


In case you didn't notice I've been gone for a while.


Mark & I went on vacation. It was so relaxing and quite nice to see the sun again.

I even came home with a little tan.


We went on a somewhat spur of the moment cruise. We had planned on doing something in April for Marks birthday but an opportunity presented itself the end of January so we booked a cruise for the third week of February.

It was a firedrill to pull everything together but we did pull it off and had a fabulous time.


Although for a while we thought we were stuck in Chicago. A lot of people working together ( two airlines even) and we landed in Ft. Lauderdale with a short time to spare.


Didn't get a chance to meet up with my cousin like we had planned. So I was bummed for a while. We have seen each other in years, 10-15 or so.


The cruise was a bit rocky, even for us boaters. We attempted to go into Grand Cayman Island but the port authority closed the port because of the safety of using tenders to get us ashore.


We visited Key West, FL, Roatan Honduras and Cozumel. We even visited two Margharitaville's in one week. Too funny. I have pics to prove it because after a 20oz margharita things start to get blurry. I left the one in cozumel wearing a paper pirate hat.


It was nice to get away for a while. Our room was great. We got an upgrade to a larger room with a balcony. I'll never be able to stay in a small room again after being so spoiled.


Have a great day everybody.
