First Impressions
You do not get a second chance to make a first impression!
Why I Talk So Much (A Revelation!)
More specifically… Why I talk so much about my medical journey. I have always loved to talk, as anyone who knows me can attest to, and as I mentioned in my last blog post. So, when I had my medical emergencies, and ever since, it just seemed obvious (and natural) to me that I would …
At a loss for words
As I mentioned when I reintroduced myself in my previous blog posts, I have not written a blog post in well over 1 year. In my own defense, I am NOT a slacker. I just have a hard time having a one-way conversation. LOL See, as anyone who knows me can attest to, I love …
My Blind Life – Today
Okay, so my last blog post I gave you the history behind my hydrocephalus, and what it is. However, that doesn’t really explain how we got to where things are today. So, here goes… As I briefly mentioned, ever since being told I had outgrown my condition I had experienced various symptoms over the years, …
A little background (for the new folks)
For those of you who have been around awhile, some of this is old news. However, some folks may not know my history, so I thought I would give a little history. Reintroduce myself, if you will… I was born with hydrocephalus (excess fluid on the brain). When I was 28 days old I had …
Don’t Call Me. I’ll Call You.
Don’t call me. I’ll call you. Maybe. I have ALWAYS told solicitors “If I want or need what you’ve got, I will call you.” I mean, if I need siding, an extended car warranty (the WORST), the “greatest skincare product EVA”, or anything else, I can assure you I am not just going to sit …
Quarantine Fatigue
Isn’t it crazy all the new terms that have been coined in the last few months? “Masking”, “zooming”, and “quarantine fatigue”, just to name a few. I wonder if any of them will be added to the Webster’s dictionary in the next edition?? LOL I have joked that I have been practicing for this time …
A Difference of Opinion
I recently posted one of my “Questions of the Day” on my personal Facebook profile, asking folks to share their ‘unpopular opinions’. I started it off by sharing one of mine. I will do so here as well. I started off by saying that I am not on the Brad Pitt “bandwagon”. I don’t hate …
To the Class of 2020
To the Class of 2020 (and anyone else who needs to hear it)… Life is full of opportunities. Some are ones you just cannot pass up, but others, you might wish you did. Life is full of disappointment. Things may not always turn out as you had planned or hoped, however, sometimes that is because …
What a Time to be Alive!
Okay, so there might be just a tad bit of sarcasm in the title, but still… It IS a crazy time right now with the current Covid-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic we are dealing with. Buzz words like ‘social distancing’ and trending hash tags like #alonetogether (hint: it isn’t as romantic as it sounds😉) have taken over …
