Catching up after a VERY FULL weekend:

Brenda, that's so awesome! I'm so pleased for you!

askye, you too! Sounds like you're making so much progress!

Suzi, sounds like you also had a VERY FULL weekend. Glad things are coming together.

Scope-ma, Steph!

Ulcer~ma, Teppy, and the least disgusting procedure possible today.

Brenda, that's wonderful! It's not an easy thing to do.

Suzi, sounds like you might have found a new companion....

askye, leaps and bounds! Your hard work is paying off.

I hope it's just an ulcer.

Another health milestone for me. I've avoided pineapple because of my painful bladder syndrome and even though I eat most things again I've been wary of it.

Yesterday at the party they had homemade pineapple ice cream. I had a few bites and no problems! I'm not going to run out and eat slices of pineapple but I am going to try al pastor taco sometime soon.

Pineapple is my favorite fruit and it's been about 9 years since I've had any.

Easily fixable ulcer~ma. You're going to want to eat all the things when the test is done. Learn from my mistake and go slow.

Epic, how are you? I hope your mom is doing better.

Epic, tons of ~ma to your mom and you. I can't remember if I said something earlier, but I have been sending good thoughts your way.

Suzi, sounds like you might have found a new companion....

Possibly, but I'm not taking both of them and there are different things I like about each. Jessy sleeps on my feet while I work, she is older than Crowley, and I've always had female pets (Jack doesn't count as he is Kelly's). But she is pretty small and not likely to grow much more, she hasn't been keen on learning how to sit, and she is barky when we are out back and someone walks by (Jack is still learning that people are allowed to do that).

Crowley is utterly adorable, his name is THE BEST, he is actually learning how to sit, and he will grow a bit larger into a medium/small dog. But he is currently very much a puppy. He happily chews on both appropriate and inappropriate things. He has ripped holes in two corners of Jack's old dog bed and he is still trying to figure out the peeing outside thing.

Arrrggg. We have decamped from my office to the back yard. Jack is utterly NOT impressed with the puppies.

BRENDA!!!

BRENDA!!!

BRENDA!!!

(eta: I got so excited typing that, I hit the post button by mistake....THAT's how excited I am.)

I am overjoyed for you, Brenda. CongratuWELLEFFINGDone. That is amazing.

Seriously. So cool.

Ulcer ~ma, Steph. Simple-fix ~ma in abundance as well.

I just left you an FB message about some drug stuff, for when you have a minute.

Short story, I'm begin prescribed antibiotics like candy and have taken 4 rounds of different ones over the last 3 months. Now, the endodontist tells me I need to take 1500mg (3x500) per day for 10 days. That seems like a massive mallet for a sinus infection.

Except for the congested feeling under my eye and the tooth pain, I have no sinus symptoms. How can that be?

I guess the good news is that my root canal has not actually gone bad, as I had expected.
