So it's the end of Nov, almost December, almost the end of 2010.  Last week was my colonoscopy with not-so-good results.  I guess we'll see what this autoimune disease will do next.  I go see my dr for a plan of action probably in a week or two.  Yesterday was thanksgiving with my family since I always work on the actual day and usually through the ( Read more... )

I get all motivated to post journal entries and then it just...doesnt.  And I fall of the Lj planet for months.  I've been married for 5 months.  Its still weird.  When I hear Paul say wife, when I see the ring on his left hand, when I say husband.  Its two-fold weird because a, I wasn't ever planning on getting married in the grand scheme of life ( Read more... )

I have not been on here in forever!  So long that lj logged me out and didnt remember me, and my browser memory didnt recognize the link and I had to type it all out.   Most importatly I miss my sister.  For a while there I had the priviledge of talking to her every day which I found really helpful in navigating my life with my particular brand of ( Read more... )

Paul's family has consistantly been resistant with our wedding.  I'm under the impression they hate me, but Paul claims they don't, and futhermore how irrelevent it would be if they did. This particular moment though, it's that  they don't  want to pay for their room for the wedding.  They are also under the impression that I should pay for their ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I was on here- I kind of forget about it and then remember....and post.  Last weekend :  Thursday night drove to Kalamazoo with Mel for a conference on the aging brain.  Ate at Cracker Barrel and I haven't been there in at least a year, so that was a treat- we sat at a table with a baby portrait (scary) hanging over us that ( Read more... )

Ok, so I can't even do counseling right.  Since the nearest center my insurance will cover does not have any counselors available that my insurance is compatible with (what?) I need to re-atempt on Monday with the whole appt bit.  Riiiiiight.  In the meantime I got a basic rundown on therapy from a phone counselor who works for the EAP with my ( Read more... )

Good news is that I've lost enough weight now that people are starting to notice (and remark) about it instead of how beastly fat they think I am which is good for morale.  Bad news, they add that they can tell in my face.  Which brings me to the John Pinnet "Oh?  How big was my head??  Watch out for John he's got a head the size of a man hole!"  ( Read more... )

What makes someone decide they want a person in their life?  What makes them decide they don't want them anymore?  And better yet, what makes them decide, after a few years, that maybe they do want you in their life after all ( Read more... )

So I get a great many UTI's from what I gather when I report how many I get yearly, or when my dr peruses through my chart and the way her eyebrows climb up her forhead that's not a good thing.  And the most recent turned into this super-bug VRE.  So, they decided I needed to see an Urologist (haven't even made a call on that one yet) and have an ( Read more... )
