Enjoy the Weather. Be Happy

By Lauren Kovacs

Enjoy the weather.  The heat is gone, and the mosquitoes are dead.  I don’t think they came from the same place.  Rejoice. Hallelujah.  Just those two things being gone are enough to make me dance.  

Sit back and relax.  Ladies you can shave your legs less and cover up the cuts with pants. Even electric razors cut.  Thought the electric razor would save me from bleeding out.  I was wrong and I often still get cuts.

Now I can cover them with pants and not be boiling hot.

Fall means no snakes here in NC too.  I don’t have to worry about the dog having an ego trip, if I let him out back.  Pumpkin pie and coffee are good at breakfast too.  Took me years to enjoy pie at breakfast.  Why not?  We are adults.

Hoodies are great, but wear zip up hoodies.  There is a reason why older folks wear cardigans.  Easy on and off is vital for many.  I find body temperature regulation is better dealt with when you dress in layers.

MS requires more thoughtful planning. Dressing is no exception .  We can easily overheat.  Layers are the way to go.   Try zip off stuff.  Pullovers can be an issue.

I once got stuck in a sweatshirt trying to get it off.  It is funny now. I learned from it at least.  I learned hard wood floors can be napped on.  I also found a love for zip up sweatshirtsEnjoy fall.  Lots of perks.

 Ok, pumpkin spice everything is old.
