It's Been A While

I realize it's been a long time, but I think I should let y'all know that I'm doing pretty good right now. 

Only problem--and it's a doozy--I am still getting nasty headaches. I can no longer take the meds that have always worked, since they are not heart-friendly. So, nothing else really works. I end up with headaches for days. Not fun.

Other than that, my stamina is getting a little better, too. I still take naps, but they are shorter and later on in the day.

Let me know how you're doing, OK?

Hugs,

Jana

Thanksgiving?

There are a lot of things for which I am truly grateful.

The first of these is my health... because as bad as it is, at least I am doing better than 3 or 4 years ago.

Second of these is my loving husband. He's the very best.

Third of these is my mom, who's living with me and my husband. Yeah, it's not always easy having to deal with her issues, but she loves both of us very much.

I also love Stardoll, which is what keeps me sane. I have met some truly wonderful and very interesting folks there. It's just plain fun!

Autumn in the South

It's just changed back from Daylight Savings Time. Fall forward, Spring back. Right?

Glad my mom's here. Even Michael is getting to know her again and love her again. That's the best thing. 

Diabetes is a serious disease. Please keep that in mind.  It's affecting one of those I love so much. Thanks! 

Mimi's here!
Michael is in so much pain it scares me. I guess it's scaring him, too, since his AFib is doing its stuff for his heart monitor trial month. OK the past couple of days, so I'm not complaining.
 

The Hungry Housewife

I read a lot of blogs, but this one's a fave. Please check it out!!
Besides the really good and simple recipes, she also has a great sense of humor. I highly recommend this blog which I read every time she posts something new. Here's how to find her:

You will not regret it.

SSDI

Well, the miracle has happened. I got news, via my bank account, that I have been approved for my Social Security Disability Income. Without a hearing! It really feels good to have that validation, even if I can no longer have the career I loved.
