since i'm still young...
i'm hopeing for a way to stop progression
before things get too bad
and adapt to life's circumstances
the folowing  may all be wasted effort in some respects
but, at least i will have no regrets

these activities motivate me to stay active and strong

i have decided to not procrastinate

newly diagnosed and unsure of progression rate
i'm making improvements to my 20 acres
hoping the boys ( 4 and 14 ) will take over

this summer i'm in the process of :

-- building a deck, complete with my own wheelchair ramp
-- outdoor wood furnace
-- a metal garden shed for the furnace
-- a geodesic dome wood shed
-- a geodesic greenhouse/equipment storage

next year:

-- an handicap friendly geodesic addition to the house
  which will be for myself and my 85 yr old mother.

friends are interested in helping raise the domes--
gotta get to work
