It’s a given. They are bound to happen. You have thought about them. I’m just the one dumb enough to write them down! They are the everyday occurrences, situations & nuances of living with multiple sclerosis. Some are true. Most are downright silly. Heck, there are several that have nothing to do …

Tread lightly as you enjoy this rehashed My Odd Sock… Eighteen inches. A foot & a half. In golf, an 18-inch putt is no gimme, especially for Tiger Woods! In football, a foot & a half can sometimes seem like a mile when going for a first down. But I never -ever …
Blowing the dust off this old My Odd Sock as the Duggars are in the news again. Enjoy… Here in the United States we are facing a serious problem. It’s not National health care.

At My Odd Sock, we live for the silly. We loathe for the ridiculous. And when it comes to advertising, we consumers get more than our bloated share of the stupid. But that’s why I’m here (you can thank me later), to point out the absurd, snicker at the amusing and gag …
I sat straight-up right. Twisted my head to squint at the clock on the VCR. There I couldn’t believe my eyes. No, it wasn’t the fact that we still owned a VCR…but that the clock said it was 11:24am. I had been asleep for TWO HOURS! I took a two-hour nap BEFORE 12 …
It’s time to jam with My Odd Sock’s “MS-A-Band.” What’s that? “MS-A-Band” is where we inject, err sorry, I mean infuse, eh no better, I meant add some multiple sclerosis to our favorite bands, singers & musical artists. A fun, mash-up of music and MS. A tingly DX of solos …
