So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

My google-fu seems to be broken. I'm trying to find a chart that tells me what normal blood iron levels are, and I can't find one. I think my doctor said mine was at 10. If anyone can find the info for me, I would owe you big.

Welcome back, Andi!

eta: sj, there is a chart here: [link]

but you might want to double check with your doctor to see if s/he was giving you the iron level, serum ferritin level or iron binding capacity number, or something else entirely, just so you know you're looking at the right thing.

The status is NOT quo.

Welcome home, Andi! As Ouise said, your kindness and warmth in the face of so much difficulty are astonishing. And this?

I missed wishing Happy Anniversary to the PixDesigns on the day. But it's such a wonderful thing, maybe it would be wise to celebrate it all week. May the strength that you draw from each continue to grow, as your joy burns brightly so that those who love you bask in its warmth.
Made me get a little allergic. Just saying.

Hmm...MM is on the board...and I believe today just might be...HIS 40TH BIRTHDAY. Happy Birthday, my friend!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Happy Birthday, MiracleMan!
