  • Fatigue, Food & Blood

    I have been talking to this page in my head since last Wednesday but have not typed it out. Then the other day someone posted on their FB on the subject I wanted to talk about and I started feeling silly about talking about my problem after they talked about their similar problem because theirs…

  • Despite my best intentions

    I try to find products at stores near me before I hit up amazon. You know, trying to keep the home folks employed. I have been looking at new towel racks for the bathroom. I had a very specific set of features. I want a shelf, a want a hook or two and I want…

  • Value Add

    I have been lucky enough to get paid for quite a few crochet pieces. Sometimes a lot, sometimes just enough to cover yarn. I have definitely given away more than I have sold. I joke that the selling allows me to buy more yarn to cover the give-always. I rarely charge for time, just materials.…

  • Ustrasana

    The other day I was doing camel pose as part of my morning routine and I had some thoughts I would like to share with you.

  • Let’s Talk about Talking

    I was thinking this morning about people who speak other languages fluently and perhaps English not as well. In my experience they always apologize for their less than perfect English even though they speak correctly, and frankly better than a lot of people who grew up with English as their first language. On the internet…

  • Sigh…

    I am missing things that I interact with regularly. One of them is my Garmin watch. It has broken. I thought I would probably try to not replace it. Do I really need it? why, yes…I DO! It is just bizarre to me how many times I have looked down at my wrist in the…

  • ARRRRRRRGGGGG!

    (And not in the talk like a pirate day) I use to do posts where I just bullet pointed all the things that were aggravating me. Nothing big, just a way to get the complaints out of me and let go. Maybe I should start that again because I can feel the annoyances building up…

  • UnBreak My Heart

    Why Cardio will probably save your life in more ways than one Soooooooo I’ve been on this chemo drug since 2018. Stage 4 since 2014 – just under 9 years if anyone is counting (Go ME!) As you probably guessed from my checkins at the Toledo Clinic every three months I have a CT Scan…

  • Just a moment of whining

    I was sick last night. Went to bed early, asleep by 10:30, woke up at 12:30 with all the ick. It’s fine, it’s reasonably normal for me, and I know what caused it. That is not what I want to whine about. I have a thing in the bottom of my foot, nerve, muscle tendon,…

  • Just a little me

    I wish I could get back to semi-weekly blogging. It is such a good way to keep memories of the smaller things. I can’t tell you how many times I have gone back to my blog to look for a specific date that something happened. This morning I hit the lowest weight I have been…
