Life is good!

Just sitting here watching March Madness and thought I'd do an update. Really glad to say that I'm still feeling pretty well and have really been enjoying everything South Florida has to offer :)

So, the last I updated I mentioned that I was going to hit the Delray St. Paddys Day parade and that I did! It was pretty cool as my good Hodge buddy Bekah (who is also doing very well and looked great :) came down with a few of her good friends who were really nice. It was great to see Bekah and her posse and we all had a great time at the Parade.


Hangin out at Paddy McGhees on Atlantic!


Bekah and the girls at the after parade party (which obviously hadn't started yet, lol) at Brus Room.

Every day down here lately has been picture perfect. The nice thing about it is I've actually been able to enjoy it this time! Last winter was so different... Dealing with Fibromyalgia then the Guillain Barre Syndrome pretty much wiped out the entire winter. I remember it being a major task just for me to update this blog because I couldn't control my fingers to type! Doing an entry like this would take me hours having to punch keys with one or two fingers. I'm so grateful...

So, now that I have most of my strength back, I'm able to do things again that I love like riding my bike, playing golf, fishing, walking down the beach - hell - walking anywhere! It's funny, I was at the mall yesterday and they had a guy in the parking lot with an extended golf cart to give rides to people to the mall from their car! At first, I thought it was just the ridiculous amount of money that people have around here then realized it's probably there to cater to the older folks who may have trouble getting around. The last time I was at that mall was last winter and remember majorly struggling to walk across the parking lot, not to mention once I got inside. (I would have gladly jumped on that golf cart if it was there last year, ha!) It was then that I realized something was really wrong with me. In fact, now that I think about it, I was actually Christmas shopping. I remember having to take the plastic bags and wrap them around my wrist so I could carry them. I also remember trying to do my signature on the credit card machine and barely being able to scratch something out. I can't tell you how far I've come from that day and I don't take a bit of it for granted...


Not a bad day on the water yesterday, 6 Yellowtails and a Mutton snapper, great eating. I also lost several fish, had a couple of big ones on that snapped my line.


All of them are Yellowtail Snapper except for one Mutton Snapper, can you pick out the Mutton?

So, the plan is to just keep this going! I'm here until the 23rd then I'll be flying directly to New York for yet another PET scan.

Pura Vida as they say in Costa Rica ;)
