The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Are iron pills no good?

I've been taking a daily pill with 65mg iron + 125mg vitamin C for about a year and a half. I can't tell that it has made any difference.

Six weeks ago my anemia was much improved, almost to the low end of normal. This time it tested much worse. No idea why. Oh, well.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Huh, weird. I hope it decides to head back towards normal again

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

dcp, other than the odd anemia, those sound like good results.

What are they eating that makes them blue?

Morphine popsicles.

So THAT'S where the popsicles are!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Recovering after the long weekend. Mostly, not enough sleep thanks to Mr. S.(How did we end up with a morning person?)

Meanwhile, my mom's back in the hospital with another UTI. Poor her. Poor my dad, who is stressed out about this.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I was sufficiently spooked by the dude yesterday that I lowered all my windows enough to engage the little safety lever again.

dcp, I'm glad the results seem mostly good. Maybe have a baked potato stuffed with spinach souffle?

Sardines, anchovies, and mackerel per the calendar, my source of truth on blue-footed boobies

Fascinating! Is it just their feet, or is that the only part not covered by feathers? When I was a toddler carrots made up a high enough proportion of my diet to make me turn slightly orange.
