Semi-Healthy

Got through my birthday and the colon exam.  I've been really depressed for a couple of weeks and can't seem to totally snap out of it. 

It was uncomfortable preparing for the colon exam, of course.  The test itself was painful - my IV came out of my hand and they couldn't give me more sedative.  We did get the test done and the doctor said everything looks fantastic - I was very clean (yay. drinking all that medicine worked), no signs of cancer, no polyops, and no scarring.  I do have weakened splintcer muscles, however.  I suppose I get to learn how to do kegels for the tail end. 

Now to schedule a breast exam and pelvic and I'll be set - and another round of blood work (see how I'm doing since I've almost eliminated caffeine and have been working to cleanse the liver).

Jackie has been helping out more and I'm trying to keep up but it's a task right now.

Right now = ugh

My speciality. I found this recipe in an unusual book in my senior year in highschool and we gave it a try. I've adapted it over the years (reducing the paprika so we aren't reaching for a pitcher of water or milk like Jonathan Harker was). This works well with just breasts or thighs or whatever combo you'd like.  The sauce is fantastic on eggs the next morning too.

Becoming Mom - part whatever

Okay, instead of hand sewing something as I normally would, I used the machine. The design works, the stuff for the project doesn't.  We need bigger pipe insulation. We're making drafty door blockers and the insulation is too small since we ripped out the carpets. So, first foray into sewing with a machine in a long time went well but the project is stalled until tomorrow or Friday.
