Heard That Before

August 25th, 2010 · No Comments

Right about now I’m up to believing just about anything a medical professional would tell me if it started with “I’m diagnosing you with….”. That’s probably not the smartest way to be, after all not every doctor knows everything. It is just how my health seems to be going right now. Hence my willingness to [...]

June 28th, 2010 · 2 Comments

I haven’t been to our local man made lake here in Mission Viejo for quite some time, so when my dear sister/friend Jill suggested we go chill for a few hours I knew I had to say yes. My most awesome husband Jerry and I used to take our kids to the lake several times [...]

Just in case you aren’t sure which items found under our couch in the TV room are from my side, let me clarfy. Everything on the right including the scrapbook cutout is mine. I think Jerry’s side looks more delicous though!

For Mother’s Day this year Matt and Ms Yuki came over for a few hours to visit before heading out to dinner. I always enjoy spending time with them! We met the Bennet family for dinner at one of our favorite places to eat, Mongolian BBQ on El Toro Road. Yum! All in all a [...]

Mothering My Children

May 9th, 2010 · 1 Comment

38 years ago I started having my children; the oldest, Jimmy would be 38 today if he were still alive. Jason is 31 now, which is just as hard to believe. Matthew will be 28 next month and can no longer be called the baby of the family even though he is the youngest. I [...]

Back To That

For those of you who may be interested, posted here is a x-ray with dye contrast photo of the epidural needle in my lumbar spinal dura that my anesthesiologist placed there.

It’s been almost 2 years since my dear friend Pauline has come out from Illinois to California, and a year to the month since Valerie was out here with her father. Both times were related to Valerie and boyfriend Roni’s desire to move to this area, and after a long year full of anticipation Valerie [...]

Reluctant Farmville Addict

March 7th, 2010 · 1 Comment

I hate to admit it yet I will. I play FarmVille on Facebook. I am slightly addicted to it. Some might say I’m hugely addicted to it. I would disagree by saying I used to be, hugely addicted to it. Lately I’m losing interest in it due to the fact Zynga hasn’t introduced anything new [...]

Massage Techniques

March 4th, 2010 · 2 Comments

My absence as of late has not been due to a busy schedule, quiet the opposite. Instead I have been experiencing the darker side of my Fibromyalgia, a disease I’ve had for over 20 years. It started quite some time ago when I began experiencing the unpleasant side effects of one of the newer drugs [...]
