12/2/22

It's Friday.  The date is kinda cool today, isn't it?  12222.  I'm starting to get over the crud I caught.  Sleeping is still hard cause of all the junk in my throat, but it's getting better and that's all that matters.  We just got a new bed.  A Purple.  I love it.  The Tempurpedic just wasn't cutting it any more.  We're still going to Houston tomorrow and will be back on Thursday.  MD Anderson on Monday, then fun stuff the next 2 days.  It's rainy today and kind of gloomy, so an afternoon nap is on the schedule....

Something notable happened yesterday, the first day of December.  I cut my bangs.  Yes, I have bangs long enough to cut.  Well, some of them, anyway.  My hair is coming in straight now, but the old growth is still curly.  I'm just letting it grow - not sure what exactly to do with it yet because there are just so many layers.  It's long enough to keep me warm this winter.

Since we got a new bed, we moved beds in other rooms and as I began to place the empty gun cases under one bed I realized something...

Did you know that statistically, you are more likely to be killed by Hillary Clinton than an AR-15?  Just sayin'.

And we've simply got to hand it to Alexandria Ocasio Cortez for single-handedly putting an end to dumb blonde jokes.

Come on, you gotta smile at that one.  At least if you watch the news.  She's truly amazing. Ha, Ha!

  6/16/25 I’m back. By a show of hands, everyone that loves my charts, and patient portals, etc. raise those hands high! Hmmmm, I see none going up. I have sent messages on my patient portal on several occasions and heard nothing back. So, I call the office and leave a message, because you never get a real person the first time. No one calls me back. I think I might drive to the office tomorrow. ….. sigh. On a good note, my ctDNA test came back negative. Hooray! And I go back to MD Anderson in Houston in two months. I have an endoscopy in three weeks. I see my rheumatologist in two days. I need to get my dermatologist to take a look at my head. It’s been five weeks since she cut that open and it still has not healed. It’s still scabby and bloody. So, I still cannot get in the pool. And I have to stay out of the sun. It looks pretty icky on the top of my head, I’m sorry to say.  David and I celebrated my good news by going to Shreveport this past weekend. We had a good time. Th...

12/10/25 Thursday First of all, good news. My latest cancer test came back negative.  I am currently in Las Vegas, supposedly having a grand time, but I am not. I got food poisoning and spent all day yesterday in bed. At least when I wasn’t vomiting or had diarrhea. All dang day. By evening, I was so weak I could barely walk. The hotel called paramedics and they took me to the ER. I was there until 11:30 PM last night. Poor David. I felt so sorry for him. It was a horrible evening and I’m still weak this morning. I haven’t eaten anything since Tuesday evening . We’re supposed to fly home tomorrow. I sure hope I’m better than this by then. I got show tickets for last night with spectacular seats and David had to take them back and get our money back. At least we got to go to the national finals rodeo Tuesday night. That was so much fun! Today doesn’t look like much fun, though. I feel horrible. They did a lot of scans at the hospital. Showed a lot of scarring in my right lung, which...

  5/12/2025 It’s been five months since I’ve written in my blog. Several people are upset with me for taking such a long break. However, my life just hasn’t been very exciting these past few months. I will appease the masses and update my blog today. David and I went on a seven day cruise in January and I continued with physical therapy twice a week for my back. David and I took a road trip in February and March. We drove thousands of miles and stopped in to see a lot of old friends along the way. We made it to Vegas and we got to see Garth Brooks in concert. That was a lot of fun. We kept going through Utah and Colorado and finally made our way back home. I cut almost 10 inches off of my hair in March. It was my first real haircut in years. I had another sleep study done and saw the pulmonologist several times. He wanted a special kind of sleep study so I went back for a third one. He ordered me another CPAP machine, but this one has a different mouthpiece and I sleep pretty well ...
