Sparks and Butterflies...

But aside from that, she's still completely normal

Time Flies

March 10, 2008 By Michele Leave a Comment

What does it make me, if I got really excited about the time change, ’cause the clock in the kitchen now has the correct time?  You know – ’cause it never got changed last time?

Lazy?

It’s official!  I am registered for BlogHer 2008 in San Francisco.  Thank you, work bonus.   I also went ahead and did my hotel, so no worries, even if I can’t find a roommate.  But I went ahead and got the double beds.

Just in case someone loves me and wants to share the cost 😉

Can’t do the flights though, until they set the schedule, but it’ll probably be first flight out on Friday, and then an early evening flight out on Sunday.   It’s only an hour’s flight for me.

Now if they could just update the bling so I could decorate around here…

The Results

March 7, 2008 By Michele 1 Comment

Well, I went to the doctor for the followup visit yesterday. Finally.

The good news? No cancer.

Now, let’s see…

  • Weight is still fluctuating. This time it was down 10 pounds from the last time I saw them. Whatever. My thyroid is normal.
  • Ulcers – 2, small, right next to each other. I tested negative for H. Pylori – so it’s a combo of stress, too much acid, and my headache pills. I’m not giving up my headache pills – I’m a chronic headache sufferer (hormones cause them, nothing I can do about it.) So I’m to stay on the drugs I was on. The ulcers will heal slower, but counter-act the effects of the headache stuff on my stomach.
  • Cholesterol – High! This surprised me, as that’s new. Never been high before. No drugs – although I may try some supplementation along with diet.
  • Hernia – I am about to get a stomach hernia. It’s just begun. There’s nothing they can do about it until it pops, for lack of a better phrase. And in fact, it may never do so. So, yay for ticking timebombs.
  • Acid Reflux – since I’m still having acid reflux and heartburn (and no they are not necessarily one and the same) even through the other medication I’m on… And the way my stomach feels after eating, I’m on a new drug for motility. Basically to move the food better on through. So, I’ll be starting on that.

Another follow up in 3 months.

BlogHer Here I Come

March 6, 2008 By Michele Leave a Comment

So, um, yeah.  Remember how I said it was a choice between our anniversary and BlogHer?  No longer the case.

I talked to Poe.  He wants to take separate trips.  Me to BlogHer in July, and him deep sea fishing in August.  A trip he was invited to the day I brought this up to him.  With tax money, this whole thing is doable – albeit incredibly panic inducing for me of the penny pinching fingers.

We’re going to do something low key like dinner for our anniversary.

Point is this:  I’M GOING TO BLOGHER.

Now.  Any readers who are going and don’t think I’m terribly annoying and maybe kinda maybe want to split a room?  How’s that for a sentence…

I’d rather not pay full price for the room, and split with someone.  But even that opportunity doesn’t come up, and I pay for the room all by my lonesome, ’cause no one loves me – doesn’t matter.  Why?

‘CAUSE I’M GOING TO BLOGHER.

Eve

Here’s the thing.

I don’t know if Adam and Eve are going to be in Heaven or not…  Scripture is a little unclear if they served God faithfully AFTER they got the boot from the garden.

But when I get there, I’m hunting her down and slapping her upside the back of the head.

This month’s “curse” was a really bad one.
