We headed out to Disney for a few hours on Saturday since the last time we went, I was getting sick and we wound up having to leave and missed the fireworks, the Osborne lights, etc. Then, we couldn’t go because of Love having surgery on his leg. But! Love was a trooper and nine…

Holiday Cards!
I have some holiday stamps on hand and I’ve already sent out like 30 cards for Holiday Wishes but I hadn’t yet put up a list for my friends. Whoops! So if you would like a card from me, leave your address right here in the comments. They will be screened so no one can…
Oh Christmas Tree
Tonight we finally got the tree decorated! (Still need to put up the monorail around it but I started getting some of the village up under it but not all.) Looks pretty darn good if I do say so myself. 🙂 This is the first year with the led lights. Man are they bright and…
Quick Week’s Recap (So Far)
Brief overview of this week’s events… Monday – Hematologist Hematologist appointment. Got there and told the receptionist as I was signing in that I needed to speak to someone in billing to sort out my insurance billing issue (they’re billing me out of network resulting in 100% due instead of in-network and 20% due.) I…
Post Thanksgiving Is Busy
Things are getting busy around here. First, it’s the weekend after Thanksgiving, so that means the holiday season is officially on. *chuckles* We’re trying to clean up the apartment to get ready for a tree. Problem is that we want to put it in a different area this year – in the “dining room” part…
Ho! Ho! Holiday Wishes 2011
I’ve participated in Holiday Wishes for about 5 or 6 years now. The idea is simple. Post a list. Then look through other lists and see if you can grant a wish. There are no guarantees but it’s nice to try and see what you can do for someone else and maybe get something of…
Thankful
Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans and happy Thursday to everyone else. 😉 Today I’m thankful for many things and I want to share some of those things with you. I’m thankful for my health. Earlier this year that was in question and now I’m 7-weeks post-op and doing great. I’m thankful for my doctor…
Still Sick, Medical Bills & Day Job Update
So I’m still dealing with the cold that I woke up with out of nowhere on Saturday. My poor lips are all cracked and split, my nose is red and scaly and now everything is turning to chest congestion so I’ve added coughing up nasty crap to my runny nose. Super fun and oh so…
The Good and The Bad
Well, the good news is that yesterday, we finally made it Disney. We tried last weekend of course, but wound up stuck on the side of I-4 and had to get towed back. ($264 in repairs too.) The bad news is that I woke up with a bad sore throat, we got off to a…
Tuesday Blues
Today I have an appointment at 2:45pm with the hematologist. It’s a follow-up to my pre-op appointment to determine how he wants to proceed with getting my iron stores (ferritin level) back up to normal levels. It was originally going to be last week but my Mom had an appointment that day and I wasn’t…
Happy Birthday Rand
Today would have been Rand’s 44th birthday. It’s the second birthday since his passing. Not going to say much here I’ll start crying but… I miss you, Rand. Happy Birthday.
Outlets, Valentines and Couches – Oh My!
It’s been a few days since a regular update so here we go… Last Saturday, we headed south of the Tampa Bay Area to an outlet mall in Ellenton. We normally hit the one in Orlando but this one is closer mileage-wise and we wanted to do something different for the day. This, however, involved…
So This is 2011
So far, not much different from 2010 I gotta say. We spent New Year’s Eve at a walk-in clinic since everything was closed and poor Love had a completely red and swollen eye. Turns out, he has an eyelid infection. I’ve been washing his eyelid with baby shampoo multiple times a day and applying an…
