Though I have to be aware of how much physical activity I do, I have come to realize that in regards to living with multiple sclerosis it does not seem to generally make a difference as to fatigue or pain levels afterwards. Having said that, keep in mind that no two people diagnosed with multiple [Read more]
While in Thunder Bay I had to visit the emergency department of their hospital several times for pain injections to help me manage the bone pain I have been feeling in my legs, feet, hands and arms as symptoms of multiple sclerosis. Lucky for me, the children & Vickie chose to accompany me on [Read more]
Lloyd had to piggy-back me back up to the parking lot. He is so strong and I am always amazed at how easily he seems to carry me (I do weigh almost 130lbs!) as well as how willingly he does so. What a gentleman [Read more]
Emeraude then put the millipede gently into the ‘bug trap’ as Lloyd explained to her that they needed to add some natural elements to the cage... [Read more]
Notre jardinage continue de progresser tellement bien, Emeraude en est très fière (moi aussi d’abord). Les concombres fleurit un peu plus à tous les jours (des belles grosses fleures jaunes)… Je ne me rappelle plus si les concombres vont pousser ou il y a des fleures comme les haricots on [Read more]
We had a alot of fun, deciding to make a 2nd batch with some variations. She loves to lick the sticky-gewy spoon and both of us were covered with milk chocolate after making our 2nd batch [Read more]
It is so exciting that spring is finally here. It’s been a long, long winter and I think everyone in Manitouwadge is ready for some blue skies and warmer temps, I certainly was ready for the snow to melt. The lake still has ice on it but not for long according to most people’s [Read more]
Kind of.. just little ones haha. Emeraude’s green bean plants have flowered and have little small beans (fèves, haricots en français mais je ne suis pas cetaine s’ils ont un nom speciale en englais) and they are DELICIOUS although we have only tasted 2 and are trying to let them keep [Read more]
The boys were playing around on their skateboards in the driveway the other night and I couldn’t resist getting some photos, they are such great sports, always ready to strike a pose for me or re-take a jump lol. The photo could come in handy when we are able to get to work on getting a [Read more]
Feel free to print the book if you have a little one in your life (2-6 yrs) who would like to read it. It is for personal use only (not to be sold in whole or in part) and I would ask that if you enjoy it and would like someone else to have a look, you link back to here. [Read more]

I continue to work diligently on the Emeraude Exploring collection. Last week we visited Canada Post. Jen was AWESOME! Emeraude enjoyed herself very much and we both learned all about the journey an envelope takes through the post office. The photos went well (unfortunately, the Post Master is shy [Read more]
Emeraude & Daddy made boats out of craft supplies and recycled materials. The boat with pontoons and a sail was their group effort (very nice) and the other small one Emeraude imagined and built all on her own. We had a lot of fun playing at the lion’s beach after we were done with our [Read more]
Long day… I am very dissapointed and concerned that I am still dealing with fatiuge, pain and other symptoms although my solumedrol treatment is done. I did not go to the hospital yet today although this is not from lack of pain but rather because the doctor prescribed new oral pain meds that [Read more]
At bedtime, before our story, we decided to begin working on our dreamcatcher. The materials included in the kit are quite nice and seem plentiful (it can be aggravating when craft kits are skimpy on quantity of supplies). Tonight is also my last IV Solumedrol treatment (5 of 5) and although I [Read more]
