Dad, Brother, Myself

Sorry can't figure out how to resize this but this is my brother, Dad and myself at my dad's 85th birthday this past weekend.  We had a great party and although he lives about 2 1/2 hours away from me, I'll try to visit him at least every 5-6 weeks.  My younger brother passed 4 years ago from cancer.

Such a beautiful woman! I got a kick out of your June Cleaver comment.

I took a picture but I don't

I took a picture but I don't like it and it's not finished. Also, my horse has diarrhea again. So I was premature in counting that as a happy thing.

I got all bummed out at the art class and started crying. Damn, I wish I didn't do that, it's so embarassing. I was just having a bad day in general. The I got home from the class and opened Facebook and the first two posts were from my friend in the cancer support group, her husband lost his battle yesterday morning, and an on line friend's husband had a heart attack the other day and it did so much brain damage that they're keeping him alive for a couple of days so family and freinds can say goodbye and then they'll pull the plug.

Wish cyber hugs worked becaused I'd give you one right now.  I'm a crier and certain things set me off too, but can totally understand why your emotions were just getting the best of you and it would be to any person.  You deserve a right to be sad.  I'm sorry about your friends that gave you such sad news.  When you get a picture that you like, we would love to see it.  It's nice to take a class that you love so much.  Next class will hopefully be better for you.

Aw, thanks Kim, you're so

Aw, thanks Kim, you're so sweet. I'm not feeling well these days and am falling into the not wanting to eat and being very fatigued cycle again. I have an appointment with my GP and had my blood done today so we'll see if it's the low magnesium, the high calcium, or some other fun new thing. I am working on a picture of my own that I'm liking. I's a hummingbird in a columbine. Hummingbirds have special meaning for me because a week befoe my mom went in the hospital for the last time with her cancer she and my daughter and I were out in my back yard and the dwarf Koren lilac had probably tweint or thirty of them on it. We we're only about 5 feet away and it was the most magical moment of my life. I've never seen anything like that before or since.

Tomorrow I have to drive 3 hours each way to go see a horse with a friend and I honestly don't know how I'm going to make it. But the seller is another friend and it's a long story but I can't not go. I hate, hate, hate being tired all the time. It makes me so angry. I'm taking a ton of magnesium but it doesn't absorb well so I suspect I'll end up on another 4 hours IV for that.

But it could be my kidneys, too. They're not good. And then there's the fact that I've been positive for lupus for years but have never had it get really bad. Maybe it's flaring up.

Anyway, I'm happy if most of you are finding joy in life right now. Hugs to you all.

Just love them but don't see many in our yard.

Hopefully you will get some answers to you being so tired all the time and wishing you some type of good news.

The trip just might do you some good so go and enjoy it.

Thank you for sharing! 

and even better, last night they told me that I am going to be a grandma again! This December! I could not be more pleased. So wonderful! Can’t wait to cuddle a new baby. All the more reason to be happy and healthy!
