Let’s talk about chronic pain and cannabis

There’s something I’ve noticed throughout my years of participating in MS projects – a recurring theme no matter the brand or organization: it’s not cool to talk about my use of cannabis for my chronic pain. Talking about chronic pain is not usually an inspiring topic. And for national brands, talking about cannabis might notContinueContinue reading “Let’s talk about chronic pain and cannabis”

National Caregiver Month

With November being National Caregiver Month, I wanted to say thank you to everyone out there helping people like me. I especially want to thank my wife Meg for the unwavering support. I can’t imagine this journey without you! While all caregivers may do similar tasks, what they mean to the people they care forContinueContinue reading “National Caregiver Month”

Adventure: Orcas Isalnd

Meg was lucky enough to score another assisting gig up in the San Juan Islands, and this time there was enough time and space for me and Tuck to tag along (thanks to Catherine and Michael Abegg for giving us the room to stay in!). The weekend was absolutely amazing, even though I managed toContinueContinue reading “Adventure: Orcas Isalnd”

Beach with the pups

The pups and I headed down to our neighborhood beach front the other day and had some fun playing fetch. Mollie is all about that water…as long as it ain’t in a bathtub. When i’m at the beach I can’t help but look around for some treasure. All I found was a blue hardhat andContinueContinue reading “Beach with the pups”

It’s a 9 part video series that’s meant to help people who are newly diagnosed with MS find some answers. We had an awesome time shooting these videos and we made aContinueContinue reading “Knowledge Is Power”

Learning to fly

I’m fighting a wicked battle of blogger’s block, so forgive me for slacking off recently. Can I claim procrastination as an MS symptom?! Life has been full to the brim; full of awesome things…and a few not so awesome things. The awesomest of all, Meg left her job at mywedding.com! It’s been a long timeContinueContinue reading “Learning to fly”

FUCK IT, BE FREE (NSFW)

If I cannot physically do what society deems “MANLY” does that make me less of a man? It was Fathers Day and Solstice; Meg and I were getting out of the shower and the sun was pouring in through the skylight. I saw that creative spark in her eyes when she asked if she couldContinueContinue reading “FUCK IT, BE FREE (NSFW)”

Afternoon at Sandy Beach

When the tide is out at Illahee State Park you can head south down the beach and find a hidden gem called Sandy Beach. Sandy Like the name says it’s sandy, very sandy. Stuff like this being 5 minutes from our house is exactly why I love the PNW. This was the spot to jump off theContinueContinue reading “Afternoon at Sandy Beach”
