I’ve added a few things in the past week or so to the shop and thought I’d just do a small post showing off the newer pieces. As always, I appreciate any links, or tweets or wall posts, etc. of my shop and/or items. In other words, if you want to share anything, THANKS! 🙂…
Month: August 2011
Updates
Just some general updates of what’s been going on lately… Love’s MRI Results came back. Everything is fine. Which is good but…it leaves us still having no clue what’s causing his miserable, debilitating vertigo. The ENT gave him a round of antivirals and heavy dose 1-week pack of prednisone to see if it helps. Kind…
Tack så mycket!
The subject line, if Google did not lie to me, means “thank you very much” in Swedish. And it’s appropriate because I got a very fun package from Sweden out of my post office box this weekend. All the way from Sweden and sweet reader of my blog, Annchen. There’s a pill box and candy….
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BECCA!
Big birthday wishes today to my good friend, Rebecca!
Beverly Hills
Note: this entry was from yesterday. Sent it from my cell. But it didn’t post. So I am manually posting it today. Greetings from Beverly Hills..Florida that is! Not anywhere near exciting as the more famous version I imagine. This is rural horse country about 1.5 hours north of Tampa Bay Area. Its my Nanny’s…
Let’s Get [A] Physical, Physical…
Ha! I slay me. /80’s humor I had my physical this morning. 8:45am. Early morning is early. When the alarm went off at 7:40am, I thought very unkind things toward it. First they took my vitals. (BP 120/85) Next, three vials of blood. (Ouch!) Then, they had me do the obligatory pee-in-a-cup. Then I had…
Clearly Time For A New Picture
My insurance plan sent this little booklet of 30 days of healthy living tips. Day 6 was to “schedule time for rest and relaxation” and came with this image: Clearly this booklet was made awhile ago. When was the last time you saw a PDA like this? (edit: apparently back in 1997 with it’s mindblowing…
Post MRI
Love’s MRI went quicker than expected. It was 20 minutes without contrast, then 6 more minutes with. They had chairs in the room so they had me lock up my purse and watch and I sat in the room with him. I read an old issue of People magazine that was in there. Couldn’t bring…
4th Week of August
This August is really long. It has five weeks in it. Today is the 4th Monday of the month and there’s another one next Monday. Odd. So I’m finally on the mend. My cold is definitely winding down. My nose and upper lip are healing up (they cracked and scaled from all the nose-blowing) and…
Kindness
Ever since being in the ER, I’ve had a whirlwind of emotions; fear, anxiety, anger, resentment but also gratitude, thankfulness, amazement and wonderment. With the exclusion of a very limited few who showed their ugly, inner true colors, almost universally, I’ve received the most positive support. Friends, family, acquaintances, and even strangers have been so…
$70 Prescription
Holy crap. I just had to spend $68.31 on ONE prescription for 28 days. I’m on the Lupron injection, right? And that puts me in a temporary menopause complete with all the way-fun symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, etc. So the doctor gave me three months worth of a very low dose…
Still sick
Okay two days into this cold and I'm ready for it to be over. I can haz healthy now? Ugh… Posted via email from memoryanddream’s posterous
Cold
…and in other news, I'm pretty sure I am getting a cold. Nose is miserable and throat is sore. Boo! Posted via email from memoryanddream’s posterous
Post Appointment Update
Ok, first off, sorry I didn’t get a chance to update yesterday. It was a VERY long day and I crashed really early last night. But onto the news… Had an ultrasound. I was at around 1,200 grams before. Yesterday? About 650 grams!! So we’ve cut the size down almost in half so far!! He…
Love’s Dr Appt Today; My Dr Appt Tomorrow
Busy start to the week. Today, Love has an appointment with an ENT and tomorrow, I go back to the gynecologist. Love’s appointment is with a specialist about his ever-continuing vertigo problems. Started back in like February and treated it with decongestants and antibiotics and it got better for a few months. Then, it came…
