** February 2019. Another storm is coming and I feel it all over my body. Be well my friends and stay warm and safe. Enjoy one of my favorite posts. (March 2018) There is a HUGE snow storm coming tonight and tomorrow. Large amounts of wet, heavy snow is expected. The meteorologists are all over... Continue Reading →
Yesterday, I tried to be normal. Yesterday, I tried to ignore my diseases. Yesterday, I had fun. Yesterday, I overdid things. Today, I'm paying for it. Yesterday was a busy day. I worked both jobs until 6:30, then joined a group of friends for a "Ladies night" at a wine and paint place. I knew... Continue Reading →
I'm "dog poor". What does the mean? Well, my dog's medical issues are so expensive that I have little money left over for myself on payday. I'm not complaining and I'm not saying this to get sympathy. Just giving backstory. I live with an expensive illness. I take a lot of medication. Have a lot... Continue Reading →
I honestly don't know where to start. I just saw a headline about Aetna Insurance. Basically, a former medical director, who was also a doctor, admitted under oath that he never read a patient's chart before denying or approving coverage of treatments.

Third, I can still physically work. I admit it is getting harder, and I am beyond hurting at the end of the day,... Continue Reading →
While shopping, I overheard someone complaining how they needed to park in the handicapped spot at the drug store because they sprained their ankle and it hurt to walk. A sprained ankle hurts like hell. I get it. You see my joints feel like they are sprained and/or broken most of the time. They swell,... Continue Reading →

My beautiful dog, Georgia Grace is a... Continue Reading →
Ok....being chronically ill is hard enough. Then along comes cold and flu season. Ugh...I would bathe in hand sanitizer if I could. No matter what I try, washing hands, hand sanitizers, avoiding sick people, taking immuoboosters......I still get sick. This time, however, was a real learning experience. I started feeling sick 7 days ago. I... Continue Reading →
So my heart is still aching over losing my cat, Isabella. I've been having trouble sleeping. It's so difficult holding an animal that you adore while they pass away. Things got better when I knew her ashes were back home with my parents. I know she had a good life, but not being able to... Continue Reading →
