Nilly I'm so sorry for your loss.

Thanksgiving was good. My brother was only slightly a jerk to Mom. E is so tall. I think be is close to 6'4". Didn't take as many pictures as I wanted. But had a good time

Except right before I triggered my stomach issues and I thought I was doing ok but Thanksgiving was full of gluten and cheese and so I'm not doing great.

At this point I think I have IBS. I think I may have had really mild IBS but it got worse. I'm supposed to schedule check up with the GI but honestly I don't want to. I will but it seems like a waste of time. I'm going to cut out dairy and cut back on gluten and give that a week or so and then cut out gluten. I'm not trying Low FODMaP elimination unless I have to because that made me all obsessive.

My brother said he wants me to come out and visit them in VA and he will pay for a ticket. Just me not M. I felt weird about that but M was ok with it. I need to get a real id before I do that.

And with my new WhatNot habit I have acquired a lot of comics and vintage paperback books. And even a text book from 1887 about history. I took some to Thanksgiving and Dad got really into the paperbacks and I showed him Whatnot but I don't know if he'll be able to figure it out.

For those that don't know it's an App where people auction stuff. All kinds. Vintage things, pallets of overstock, old video games, storage units. I was buying cheap costume jewelry but I realized the colors look really different on my phone than in person so I cut back on that. I bought a few things that looked ugly in reality but were a $1 each so not a waste of money.

And I got a surprise credit from my doctor's office for $127 no idea why but I'll take it.

Tuesday I'm getting my hair cut again..not with Mom's stylist but at the Paul Mitchell school. M's SIL is there working .as an instructor I think. And his niece is the receptionist, when I called she set me up with whoever does her hair. Which always looks amazing.

And M has a new grand niece. She's adorable! He has a grand nephew that is due around Valentine's Day but the mom is already dilated so we are hoping the baby doesn't come too soon.

M is so excited . He loves being around kids and being an uncle.

And I think I mentioned my coworker who found out she was surprise! Pregnant....she had a miscarriage but she wasn't that far along and had only known less than 2 weeks she was pregnant. She's doing ok and she is going to talk to her Dr because she wants to start trying to get pregnant. When it's ok for her.
