Happy news at the doctor's today - my platelets continue to go up! I will take 10 mg less of steroids for the next week in hopes that the platelets continue their soaring pattern. I even had a brief but lovely conversation with the lab tech about the Botanic Gardens which was a great distraction…
My day: May 9th
My artwork has a companion now! What a bleary day it has been. While I prefer the warmth and sun, I do smile thinking of how this snow and rain feeds my lovely plants. Some of my plants are exploding with such growth, it brings me delight to watch them. When I'm not watching my…
My day – April 23

Weekend productivity
This past weekend was what I considered a very productive one, which means I loved it. It started with grocery shopping on Friday evening and then watching Spirited Away. A trip to JoAnn Saturday morning started off the day followed by finishing all the winding of my cross stitch thread onto cardboard bobbins and partial…

The rest of my week went by well. My coworker, Brenda, came back from her three week vacation, so it was really nice to see her. My coworkers and I had Friday Funday where we had lunch together and played Concept. Yesterday, Gene and I walked around the lake at our old apartment because it…
