I quite literally had to wrest the iPad out of my daughter’s sweaty paws this morning just so I could work on my (now two days late) post. GAH. Last week was really quite nice. My in-laws showed up late Monday afternoon on their way to California and we had a nice visit. They refused…

I awoke this morning feeling a bit nauseous and actually took one of my anti-nausea tablets. Not sure of the cause but it may have had something to do with hunger since my tummy was making all sorts of loud grumbling noises. I’ve eaten now and feel a good deal better but there’s still a…

We had a week of some very, VERY good food. Rory and I have been forced to get more creative in the kitchen due to Leyna’s vegetarian-bordering-on-vegan dietary choices and I’ve been scrambling to find more recipes that suit her tastes but that other members of the family can enjoy. I think the highlight was…

A day late, a dollar short… All told, this last week was a pretty good one. I’m now in the sixth day of my maintenance meds and I still haven’t experienced any adverse effects. Interestingly, the pain I was feeling in my right knee has all but disappeared and I’m beginning to suspect that the…

SPECIAL EDITION POST! Welp, I spent the majority of the day today either in transit to/from my doctor’s office or waiting for stuff to happen once in the office. I’m certainly no stranger to cooling my heels while waiting for meds/nurses/procedures/doctors so this didn’t come as much of a shock. I’d also been warned last…

Another week has flown by. Just where the heck is the time going? So the big news for this week is that I now know exactly what to expect for my maintenance treatment and it ain’t pretty. True, it’s certainly better than being hospitalized but the amount of oral meds I’ll be taking is insane.…

Sunday, Sunday, SUNDAAAYY… Rory and I are both struggling to come up with tasty meatless alternatives for dinner that everyone will enjoy. Last night he took a crack at making black bean patties for hamburgers, which weren’t bad but need a little fine-tuning. The texture was certainly better than the veggie loaf from earlier in…

Ugh, another quick update. This is getting to be a pain, sharing my blogging-tool-of-choice with a teen who evidently hasn’t considered that there are others in the household who actually use the damn thing as well. Okay, here we go: Not a whole lot happened today other than a vegan “meat loaf” experiment at dinner…

Quick update, since it’s now the 13th and I haven’t posted anything for the 12th: 1. I’m still alive.😆 2. I’m slowly beginning to feel more like my old self. The wooziness is lifting a bit and I can stay on my feet for far longer. YAY!!! 3. It’s nasty, stinkin’ HOT outside, to the…

……………………………….. That’s the sound of my brain before the coffee has had a chance to kick in. Not sure what to write about. It’s another massively sticky morning and I’m staying inside for now. The night-time lows are supposed to drop by the middle of next week so the mornings should be a bit more…
