what we’re doing at Blissdom? (hint: no rubber chickens)

January 24, 2011

I’m packing my bags again (actually on time, this round). I’m headed to Nashville with my friend Robin P. You have yet to be with someone funnier. I brought extra extra panties, just in case. We are going to a conference called Blissdom. I was asked to speak on a panel. In 2009 Blissdom was [...]

thing you aren’t supposed to do in a wheelchair

October 20, 2010

It was our first time in the airport together. Amanda and I had a little time to kill (since I wasn’t a terrorist this time) and we headed for coffee. We always have a little tussle when it comes to paying for coffee. My turn.  Her turn.  My turn.  Her turn. MY TRIP = MY [...]

what i do in the shower

October 4, 2010

Someone asked me how I shower. There wasn’t enough money in the world to make THAT vlog happen. But there wasn’t a good way to describe it. So. Here you go. p.s.  Next post?? My secret to really, really, REALLY shiny hair!

kids are the coolest short people EVER…well, let’s not count Michael J Fox

June 2, 2010

I’ve had a tremendous week. I am lucky to have another special friend (Heather, @DExtraordinaire) here to spend time and deal with all my issues. During this time she’s been here, the kids have shown off their best moves. One especially. Dude. Two wheels. Beat that!

if i could dance you can bet i’d be doing something innapropriate

May 28, 2010

You probably heard the news. Unless you lived in a cave, worked under a rock, or ate bran flakes for dessert (which is just inhumane), you probably heard me going crazy with excitement. Early in the morning, I was taken aback when I thought I felt the blanket against my foot…my right foot.  That’s the [...]

the lido deck…where we find drinks with colorful umbrellas…and Isaac

May 27, 2010

Just the other night I found an envelope that had never been opened.  I ripped it open, because that’s how I am, and guess what I found. I was the holder of a Disney Cruise ticket dated back in November 2009.  Just hours after I had my strokes.  I feel lucky that I wasn’t on [...]

i love when things are fluffy and new…

May 26, 2010

You would think things more important would fill my mind.  I had rehab therapy yesterday that went incredibly well.  I had a talk with my daughter that she’d been trying to hold in.  Lady Gaga music was on Glee! Very important stuff here, people. But it’s compared to the shiny and sparkly all over my [...]

April 4, 2010

So a lot of you are wondering what the stroke has done. And, I’m going to tell you. My whole right side is paralyzed….leg, arm, torso, so-forth. My face is numb….my jaw and lips have issues. I have crap eyes now and double vision. I have ear and hearing problems. That’s most of it. I’m [...]

I could have been napping

November 9, 2009

So, I wrote this whole post about the horrors Peter put me through this weekend. Seriously.  Home Depot…rakes…sweat…it was like the trifecta of hell. But, some great things came out of it. And by “great things”, I mean other than the spectacular AWESOME that is an arm cramp.  Cause, if you haven’t had one? Try [...]
