What a drag it is getting old …

Well, maybe I need to get my eyes examined also, cause I should have seen this coming.
So, I go to the good Doctor this afternoon. I’d written down a list of things that had changed since my last visit with her, two years ago. The assistant looked at the list just before taking my blood [...]

Ummm… I rescheduled.

Ok, for those of you breathlessly waiting to hear about my doctor’s visit [the silent majority] I rescheduled it.
I was overwhelmed with my schedule and I just had to change it.  BUT it’s tomorrow and I have no reason to think I will change it.  If it makes you feel any better — I don’t [...]

Why Do I Do This To Myself??

Someone just kick me in the *ss!
You know I’ve been obsessing with this fatigue/fibromyalgia flare thing this week.  So, idiot me, decides to see what a normal resting heartrate is by surfing the Web. And, of course, I find that 60 bpm is the acceptable low.  So, time to check mine.  BUT!! I already know [...]

Yes, it could just be exhaustion.  Too much worry about the molasses-in-winter pace of my business growth, the wedding, the bridal shower, the summer English class, and a couple [...]

Inclined to Pass

This isn’t going to be an award-winning post.  Actually, I just want to get this off my mind. And it isn’t really anything worth posting.
I moved my treadmill into another room.
Ok, yeah, see, I told you — big deal. I’m needing to change some things around, I’m feeling fidgety and scattered.  I blame it on [...]

A Pregnant, Unwed Teen — So what.

You would think this is 1908 not 2008 the way the press and “opposition” had been trying to stir stink over Palin’s 17 year-old, pregnant daughter. While it won’t change my vote, I give a tip of my hat to Obama for this comment attributed to him:
I have said before and I will repeat again: [...]
