Trying to get better......

I do miss my hair, but I dig the sassy red wig! 
The Elmiron is pretty mean to the stomach, but I'd rather take that then to have to cath myself everyday. I fear that so I am doing this option first in hopes of success! Cross your fingers peeps! 
Hugs from the Bearcub and me!

MyI can't believe that it has already been 10 weeks and my summer is over. I spent my summer doing bladder instillations via Cystoscopy for Interstatial Cystitis, I hope I spelled that right. My bladder wall has deteriorated away and I'm eat up with Hunners Ulcers. Ugh and more ugh! 
My treatment meds caused hair loss so now I'm rocking this awesome red wig! 
My kitties are totally chilling with me tonight!

New baby in the family=love

Welcome little Louie! Such a sweet baby! I'm so happy for my brother Patrick and Melanie. At 45 and 40, they are kinda shell shocked but happy! 

He is perfect! And summer is just around the corner, so I'll get to visit a lot!

Another false alarm!

My poor brother and his fiancĂ©e are expecting any day now, and well, another false alarm! Lol but hey, I was out the door in under 10 minutes and on my way to the hospital when Patrick called me and said, don't bother! Hahaha! We are heading home now! No little Louie! 
I had forgotten how nerve wracking it can be for the family too while we all wait for a new bundle of joy to appear!
Hugs my friends! Maybe next time I'll be a new Aunt!

Monday night bowling madness!

We are on a bowling league and we won last season as top team champs! This season isn't going as smoothly as I'd like! Lol

Thanks to Vonna on a little advice on even weave! I'm gonna try 25 count and hope my vision is a little better! 
This is my baby brother Patrick! He bowls with me on my team! My hubby John bowls with us also, but he hates being in on my selfies! 
I always try to sneak pics of him if possible! 
Hugs from the DaisyGirl!

I've been a very naughty kitten as my boss calls me!

I can't believe I've been so lax and have totally forgotten my blog! I swear 2014 was such a heartache for me I had so many medical issues it wasn't even funny! Hamstring surgery again, eye surgery, my kidney stones just won't leave me alone, plus my poor Mother :( Numerous times in the hospital, heart attack for her, perforated bowel, poor lamb was so tired and in pain and it broke my heart to see her like that!
But, 
2015 seems to be hopefully looking a little better! Finally getting my Lupus diagnosed has been hopefully getting on track with what's going on with me! Plus my brother Patrick is going to become a father for the first time at 46! Woot woot! Him and his fiancee were pretty shocked! They have been dating for over 2 years and were just happy as chicks in a hen house when wham bam, excuse me sir: The reason Melanie is throwing up is "She's Pregnant!" ( A side note that she already has a 22 year old son from a previous marriage and she has a grandson too!) 
So we are 2 weeks from little Louie being born! And I can't wait till I get to hold a little baby again! My youngest niece is almost 13 so, its been quite a long while since we've had a baby in our household!
I've been knitting more, but I am gonna start a cross stitch piece this weekend! It's been hard with the Sjogren's and my vision, my eye surgery to remove the cataracts has made it hard to see up close. So I've got readers to try out! I've been reading everyone's blogs and I've missed my cross stitch time, so I'm gonna give it a go!
I'm still working at my school, I love the kids, just hate the hard labor that working in the kitchen demands of me. But I have a new boss Amy, whom I adore! And she makes things as easy for me as she can. Which I so appreciate! I need to stitch her a little thank you gift!
Johnny and I are already planning our summer vacay! Venice Beach Florida this year! I can't wait! We've already paid for the reservations, so I'm excited for June 6th to hurry up and get here! I wanna find a shark tooth! (Well, the man does more than me! So cross our fingers for success!)
I'm so sorry I have been away for so long! I'm excited to read and catch up with all my friends from the blogging world!

The day is long and useless. I sit on my couch and contemplate my life and what I want to do. How I wish I were wealthy or at least had the comfort of extra money to do or not to do if I desire. Why is life dependent upon money? You need money to buy food or else you will starve. Money to pay for everything. Some days it seems so hopeless and sad. I can’t even imagine the people who are truly poor and homeless. Would I being willing to give up things that I have become use too? Do I really need cable? Internet? My face cream and perfume that I adore? As I sit here shaking my head, I can say, it’d be very hard to give up my vices.

I look at my dogs laying on the couch and I am again reminded of the simple things that makes them happy. A wag of their tail, a sweet lick on the face, those small things make me happy. Unless Wally is destroying my knitting needles!

Hugs from my house to yours!

What a week!

A death, a heart attack, and I'm exhausted! Momma had a mild heart attack and Mrs. Corley passed away. So it's been a week of sorrow and fear. 
Things need to look up, we are leaving for Florida on Sunday, so we really need a week of relaxing. 
Working on a cowl for my future daughter in law, this is gorgeous yarn! 
I'm trying to lose weight again, I'd love to lose another 20lbs, it's just so much work with having to workout for 2 hours! But once we get back from Saint Augustine , I shall be trying once again! Wish me luck! If I could get to 170, I'd be a happy camper!
