It has been said a picture is worth a thousand words. Well we’re gonna find out! In “Caption This” I will give you a picture and three possible explanations. Your job, besides staying awake through this lame bit, is choosing the best description of the picture. Let’s begin….. Does this picture …
Because I’m fresh out of ideas to write about, please enjoy this My Odd Sock reboot….. Why me? is a common response when you are served a heaping helping of multiple sclerosis as a diagnosis from a doctor. Though, one can imagine a “why me?” is common to any major diagnosis, whether it be …
Thanksgiving…and everything you’ll need to stomach this day of celebrated feasting. Why not begin with the canned cranberry sauce pictured here. Mmm, don’t you just love gelatinous fruit? Does anything look more unappealing? Dog food slides out of the can looking much the lumpy same. Even the pooch won’t touch it till I mush …
You can’t make a pie if you don’t have the filling. Okay, how does that relate to multiple sclerosis, you ask? It’s a fatigue issue really. If you don’t have the energy inside, not much is getting done out. Fatigue hits me hardest on warmer days. Feels like I have concrete in my …

I love pie charts. And I love pie. Though not necessarily in that order. Pie charts are a fantastic way to present useful information. Or in this case, nonsensical info relating to our beloved multiple sclerosis. Take a peek at these pie charts and maybe you will come away with a smile. Enjoy… …
Again? Seriously? Yep, I’m being too lazy to write something new. So please enjoy this repeat My Odd Sock…. “I believe that people would be alive today if there were a death penalty.” -Nancy Reagan (1921- ) Nancy’s quote really doesn’t have anything to do with my story.
