Just because I can....this is me playing my guitar in my front yard a few minutes ago.

 

And this is my eldest...who has suddenly blossomed into a very pretty young lady.

Ty, Dynosaur!

You forgot one there good-looking. What about "f"?

Hey Dr....I've been trying to avoid 'f' because it's a bitch for me to play (got little hands) but you're right, that's the one I left out.

And BTW mom's no slouch in the leg department either

Well, thank you...but I think I have short stumpy little legs.  It's all in the eye of the beholder, I guess..?!

If so don't let you old man see this post. He might get upset.

Yes, I'm married.  Been hitched to the same dude for 11 plus years now.  He doesn't have a problem with my posting pics of myself...in fact, I posted one of me in a bikini over on Shovelheat's blog and he never complained about it.  He reads my blog, so he sees what I'm posting....so far it hasn't been a big deal.

Got news for you woman. The "f" chord is a "bitch" for *anyone* to play. That is unless your fingers are 6-8" long!
Just wish I could still play. I used to get a lot of solace from it. Unfortunately MS has robbed me of the control required in my left hand to play. What used to be decent music now sounds like a female cat in heat!
And BTW tell your hubby he's a lucky man!

That's very true.....for anyone who doesn't know, the 'f' requires you to have your fingers on all 6 strings over 3 frets.  'But I only have 4 fingers and a thumb!' I hear you say....and that right there is the reason it's a bitch to play.

I never knew that about you.  I knew that you have neuralgia, but not MS.  I won't say I'm sorry that you have it because you probably are sick to death of that (even though I AM sorry that you have it) ...but I do wish you well with it.  I had to have an MRI and a spinal tap done last year because my doc thought I was showing symptoms of MS.  They bother were negative, but I learned a lot about the disease and the way it manifests itself.  It's a sneaky bugger, huh?

And BTW tell your hubby he's a lucky man!

Aww, thank you...and yes, I'll tell him1

So, when are you going to tell me about yourself in that picture?

Between you and TW, all the good-looking ones are taken! As far as telling you about the picture check your show and tell thread. I'm just cooling my heels in between scenarios in the pic.

The trigeminal neuralgia was caused by the MS. As you know MS eats away at the mylin sheath of the nerve. That allows other materials to contact, abrade and in general squash the nerve causing the pain. And since it's in your face literally there isn't a lot you can do about it. Glad to hear your MS testing came back neg. This is not something I would wish on a serious enemy let alone smoeone who looks as good as you!
The MS has taken away a lot of things that I enjoy doing including working for a living.

The trigeminal neuralgia was caused by the MS.

I have heard that that is one of the most painful conditions....and the sad thing is that the treatments for it are very limited.

What did you do when you were able to work?  And how long have you been *retired* for?

Last job title was assistant IT manager (computers and related fields.) and it's been almost 4 years now. I still have not figured out why I haven't gone crazy yet.

There is only 3 treatments for it. 2 involve surgery one is pharmaceutical in nature (uses drugs like tegretol, baclofen and the like) Problem being is that taken in a quantity enough to do any good, they knock you silly. One of the surgical methods is the glyceride injection that I talked about over on LW's thread. Not cool but the other surgical method is even less cool.
