On Monday, I certainly didn’t expect to spend four days this week doing medical stuff! On Tuesday I went to my GP to ask for a lactose tolerance test, as Tamara says I am unusually gassy lol. The doctor ordered both a celiac test and a lactose tolerance test. But […]
Brad’s been having fun experimenting with photography, lenses, and such around the house. He’s also been getting into bird photography, but that’ll be in another post. This post is to share the pictures he’s taken of us and the dogs around the house. The pictures include the three dogs (all […]
Last week was Tam’s mom’s birthday. She would have been 78 years old. It is the first birthday without her here to celebrate, so it was a very hard day. Tam woke up early, and we spent time talking, and Tam wrote the most beautiful poem. We all dressed nicely […]
Today we got to go to lunch with Brad’s brother! It was the first day that I wore earrings other than the studs I got when my ears were pierced last month. To celebrate, I wore a pair of lavender sapphire earrings and a matching sapphire necklace that used to […]
Tam gave the three of us a really wonderful Christmas present this year! We all got coordinating tattoos! At first, we were trying to decide on one tattoo that all three of us could get. But we couldn’t agree and no one loved anything we were finding. So instead we […]

What a long day! This morning, Tam and I had to be at the hospital at 7:30AM for my gastric emptying study. This is being done to see if food stays in my stomach too long and might be what is causing my nausea. It is a 4 hour test. […]
In my never ending health saga, I met with the cardiologist today to go over the results of all my heart tests. They did an echocardiogram of my heart, an ultrasound on my neck arteries, a two week heart monitor, and a stress test. It was a lot of tests! […]
Last week, we did something special to honor Tam’s mom, Nancy. The coroner’s office has trees in their lobby, and the family members of everyone who has passed in the last year can hang an ornament in their memory. Of course we wanted to participate. Last year after Christmas, Nancy […]
Today for Black Friday, we had a couple of things we needed to get done. Brad, Tam, Felix, and I went out together! Our first stop was food. I had a free Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger coupon with any purchase at Wendy’s. And Wendy’s was running a special 67 cent Frosty […]
