We skipped over spring and went straight into summer. (february and march, were I think the warmest on record. 90 deg temps in March!)

Weird weather here. It was in the 90s last week, but today it was in the low 60s.

I'm one of those people who believes in the "seasonal MS" theory. I think it's temperature related, or barometric pressure related...or it has something to do with the jet stream. I dont know, but it feels like the weather influences the MS. Kind of like an allergy sometimes.

I've been playing around with my computers tonight. Seeing how the "accessibility" settings work. Figured out how to turn on the screen readers on the iMac, and I can set the screen to have white text on a black background. Easier to read than black letters on a white screen. I also figured out how to turn on the screen reader on my iPad. (that was cool!)

Kind of thinking about getting a program that's voice activated for my iMac and also reads the screen. Programs like that are kind of expensive so I'm playing with the built in things on the computer first.

Getting a lot of movies watched on my other computer. (watching things streamed online. Easier to tolerate watching on a monitor rather than watching my flat screen that's above my desk) My Mac Mini is turning out to be a great little entertainment center. I've been buying movies and tv shows on iTunes, or when I get dvd's I make sure that ones that have the digital downloads with them so that I can transfer the movies wirelessly to the Mini thru iTunes. (my Mac Mini doesnt have a dvd drive)

Discovered that British tv has some great stuff! Current favorite is the BBC "Sherlock". It's Sherlock Holmes set in 2011 London. Also fell in love with the "Downton Abbey" series.

If I have to have optic neuritis and am pretty much trapped at home most of the time, at least I can have fun watching British tv shows online, or listening to audiobooks.

My e-ink Kindle is coming in handy right now. It's easier to see than the iPad and it's text-to-speech function sounds better than the iPad does. So, reading is still something I can do. I would go bleeping nuts if I couldnt read.
