A Little MS with a Little MSW

A Mid-Life Slant on Disability and Education


Gimme S’more S’mores

Fall is FINALLY fallin’. I saw a pile of leaves on fire yesterday. Nothin’ says fall quite like neighborhood yard fires. I prefer a campfire and an endless supply of s’mores, but I guess a burning pile of red, orange, and yellow leaves will suffice.

I am not an ‘Everything Pumpkin’ gal, but I can conjure up a few good reasons to love the crispy-air months that follow the extra-large heated, weighted blanket atmosphere of summer.

Heat is stressful, man! Murder rates pair nicely with heat waves and I’m not having it (the murder OR the heat waves). Then fall comes along and douses those red-hot tempers with a little pumpkin spice. Nothing calms an irate, roasting human like a southern gal with a pumpkin-spiced latte exclaiming, “It’s Fall, Y’all!”

TGIF.

About Me

I have Clinically Isolated Syndrome. It’s like MS without the ‘multiple’ part. My brain has one sclerosis. Sclerosi? Anyway, it’s a doozy. I am also a therapist working toward independent clinical social work licensure. I have a husband, two adult children, and two poodles. I love to read, write, and exercise. I strive to eat something green and to make someone smile every day!
