My biopsy came back negative. Yay!! I should be way more thrilled than I feel... maybe because I'm still having issues that make me think they missed something. But I guess short of having a full body scan of some sort, I'm going to have to chaulk up the issues I have to the divaticulousis... Which I asked about, given my grandmother's years of ( Read more... )

Things have been very very slow at the cemetery funeral wise. Which hasnt been terrible for me, since I'm just all done with funerals. I'm sick of them. Cremations I'm fine with, but I just don't want to do full funerals anymore. And I just know, with my Dr. appointment in a week, that that's exactly when a dozen will come in. I just know it.

The weather is blissful. Almost chilly! I love it. Tomorrow we will hopefully get some much needed rain, which will get the grass and weeds growing again.

I had a bunch of dreams last night but woke to one where I had broken the hing pin on the tomb door at the cemetery, and was trying to find some thign to replace it, when a group of strange men ( Read more... )

Gone are the days of parties for every holliday. Its a shame in a way, we dont get to see friends much these days, but with the kids grown.... I guess that's the way of it.

Today we got together with just one couple, hung out and had some yummy BBQ ribs. Nothing crazy. It was nice to catch up. Left the boy at home.

Yesterday we went to a co-workers ( Read more... )

Well, that was a bit of a surprise. I actually was thinking the court would give it to the states under the commerce clause, so that if you marry in one state, you carry that desigantion to another state, even if you aren't able to marry there. I'm almost thinking I'd have prefered that if only to avoid the whole 'SCOTUS is making law" line.. which ( Read more... )

Here's the scoop. It's June 1st and I have the windows closed and the little heater on. And it's now finally raining, putting an end to the near drought we've had this last month or so. And you know what, I'm fine with the weather. I still have leaves to pick up from last fall, and picking up leaves in the heat and dryness SUCKS. So I'm quite okay ( Read more... )

Ryther had a flair up in his hip last night. The drug that he is on... 3rd different 'athritis' drug in a year or so, doesn't quite seem to have the strenght of the other ones.. though at the same time, it also doesn't compromise your immune system.. so there is that. Anyway, I ended up sleeping on the couch, just to he wouldn't have to worry about ( Read more... )

61 degrees and raining on Christmas eve. To date, there has not been a hard freeze in the ground. It got a little crunchy once or twice, but then back to soft pliable earth. Its' the end of December, and there is no snow coat... so that just isnt normal AT ALL. Though if it happens long enough, it becomes normal right? sigh.

The boy, the lad.. the ( Read more... )

Sigh... Maybe this will work better.. who knows.

The lad is home. Yay. It was snowing on the way home but not sticking. Also Yay. Apparently it's going to be in the 50's and raining like a bastard Christmas Eve. Well, if nothing else, we shoudl be getting some of the water we missed this summer.

We had our annual Christmas party yesterday. It was ( Read more... )

Well, we finally got a new matress. After going to Sleepys and being told 'they dont make mattress that you flip" anymore.. we almost settled for a mattress that was pretty firm, but then reallized it was the same name brand that we had been so bitterly dissapointed with before, and had suffered with since. So we decided, which we had considered ( Read more... )
