had a few errands to run today, nothing pressing just stuff to do. Went out to my car and the battery is stone dead. I have all the tools and ability to charge it up, so I did. I also took the dead battery as a sign to stay home today so I did. Made a couple phone calls,answered a few e-mails that's it. Life is good.
It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

Woo Hoo, I just got back from my doctor.   My eye is totally clear.  I can stop the oral prednisone.  I am so glad because I have gained 7 lbs as of this morning, I was a tad underweight for my height before I started the prednisone at 118 (I'm 5'7").  What troubles me more than the weight gain is my face feels all bloaty.  The doctor said he couldn't tell my face looked swollen but I can tell.  I can also feel it.   

I also get to stop the dilating drops and reduce the pred forte to every two hours for a week, then every 4 hours for a week then I see him again.  If all is well I will continue tapering.  I still have to use the ointment in my eye at night which is no problem. I am so happy.   :p

Congrats! :)

Let's hope you got it licked.

Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

Woke up this morning and thought it was Wednesday.  Found out it was Tuesday about ten minutes later.  Ruined my whole day.  :(

It was pretty cold here... 25* this morning.  I don't mind the cold, but the wind is a pain in the ass.  Brrr! 


That's good news, BEG.  :)

The above part that I bolded cracked me up, I actually laughed out loud.  I have no idea why it struck me so funny.

Today was just messed up.  Every phone call I took has some mentally damaged person on the other end.  It was awful.  Every one of my calls was retarded.

I really want to visit Canada just to see one of those goofy people in person.  They're always polite, happy, and full of "eh".  Most of the other calls I get are miserable, unhappy, grumbling sourpusses.  It's a downer.
