After a second blood sugar wig out and general discontent, its time for a change.  Throwing out the pasta, rice and bread from the house.  I could live with that but the Frozen Strawberry Bars got to go too.  Sniffles….

I need to take control of the situation though.   For my workout, my protein intake has been dangerously low and I can see some of ( Read more... )

Due to the levee break and threatening record high crest of the Merrimac River.  I may be vacating to ldyalia’s house.

My house will be fine but the routes in and routes out may not be.  Also, I’m figuring they will probably cut power to our area.

I’m just watching the news right now to see what I’m going to do.  With the Levee breaking it may ( Read more... )

It just keeps pouring and it looks like its still coming.  The Meremac River is expected to crest just shy of its record in 1982.  Valley Park (Near where I live) will be testing out it's new levee system.

10 1/2" of rain in Cape

And its still coming.  Somehow, my basement is dry, knock on wood.  Its possible that I may be stuck here not by Snow but ( Read more... )

I’ve been up since 3am for the second day in a row.  I laid there in bed willing myself to go back to sleep but my brain wouldn’t slow down.  “I could put a trellis up with planter boxes and create a little patio area upstairs” or “Hmm, I’d like roses but what is the root system like, do they require deep soil or will shallow work”  or “I wonder ( Read more... )

Why!?  It started out with only a few antibiotics causing me to break out in hives, now it seems like any antibiotics I take I start breaking out in hives.

I noticed I was itching yesterday but was ignoring it in hopes that it would go away.  Tonight I have those telltale red bumps starting to show up on my chest and my whole chest and neck are hot ( Read more... )

It’s thundering so hard here my windows are rattling.  It had just been making noise up until this point but now the heavens have let loose and a flash of lightening is seen here and there.

Spring is trying to make its way here.  Time to wash up all my kayak gear, put the kayak in the car incase of any last minute calls.

What a wonderful thing.

It may be damp, but it’s 53 degrees!  When I take a deep breath I can smell spring around the corner.   My backyard is once more alive with chirping things.

We may get a thunderstorm or two and I’m wishing I had my new rollerblades and I was able to use them.

Ran all over the place this morning!

I can’t focus today.  I’m so excited about feeling better. I’m even sleeping better and amazingly enough my complexion has even started to change.  I thought I was bleached out from the cold winter air.

How could I actually be that sick and chalk it up to something else??  How could I not have known? Just recently I thought maybe there was ( Read more... )

I’ve never been so happy in my life to have an illness. I whimpered all through the middle of January and all through the month of February.  “I’m tired” and “I just don’t feel very well” and “I’m so worn out”.  I ran some low grade temps but I thought it was me fighting off the plague.

I chalked it up to the moody blues that go along with dreary ( Read more... )

Hopefully this works.  The answers to my 99 Questions!

1.ONE OF YOUR SCARS, HOW DID YOU GET IT?

When I was a baby, my mom tells me I pulled a lamp down on my leg and the hot bulb left a scar on my calf.

2. WHAT IS ON THE WALLS IN YOUR ROOM?

The posters on my bed are so tall and my curtains so detailed, I try not to add anything else.

3. DO YOU SNORE ( Read more... )
