For the past 4 years I have been a medical mystery too many health care providers. I have gone to top neurologists, tried acupuncture, gone to a chiropractor, and several primary care providers. Three doctors outright told me I baffled them. I suppose every woman would like to […]
I’m not a big fan of spam. Yet, I have a certain psychological, sentimental fondness for spam. On the 5th of July in 1937 (right after the 161st birthday of the United States) Hormel foods introduced us all to spam. I wasn’t alive then and neither were my […]

I was just on the treadmill continuing my attempt to learn lip reading. See, I watch the television while exercising. However, I don’t listen to the tv. I actually listen to my iPod. I dutifully exercise this way day in and day out. I like keeping my brain […]
