A little better today

So glad you are feeling better.

And tell DD that it could be worse. She could have to walk to school uphill
(both ways) in the snow whilst fighting off rabid amoeba. :-)

Feeling a little better, at least mentally today. More jittery than
panicked, which is just Fine By Me. Bob is at the office, so I'm by my
own
bad self, with Sophie the Wonder Dog napping at my feet. There are few
bright spots that have made me laugh, and I wanted to share them.

----------------------

DD walks home from school (in theory), since it's only a half mile away.
In
practice, she gets picked up most of the time, since we don't want her
walking in bad weather or in the dark. She'll also call us if she has a
heavy pack that day, or just doesn't feel like walking. Tuesday, when we
got
home from the hospital, we had this message on the machine:

"Mama and Daddy. I have peer counseling this afternoon, then drama, and
then
a school council meeting at 6:30. There's no point in coming to get me
between drama and the meeting, because it's only half an hour. But I will
need a ride home at seven. Bring food. Or, because you're not home, I
figure that you won't be here. So, I'll just walk home. In the dark.
And
the cold. In a bad neighborhood. All by myself. If I don't make it, I
love
you anyway."

At that point she couldn't maintain her pathetic tone, and the rest of
message was of her laughing. Good thing, because we were laughing, too.
(She got a ride, naturally)

Bob picked up my prescriptions today, before he went to the office. As is
my
habit, I looked each one up to see the side effects. One caught my eye --
the diuretic has a side effect of causing breast enlargement!

Oh yeah, like I need that.

Thank God I'm not a guy. There's a compication that would be tough to
explain.

Thanks for all the support, you guys. As you can see, I'm made of rubber
and
am determined to bounce back. :-)

Looks like if that diuretic has that particular side effect in store for you
you're going to need our support even more.
Im sorry.. I couldnt help myself there...
Its good to hear you more like your 'give em hell' self.
Still, hugs and healing vibes being sent,
Diana
