Stormy Weather

It is a stormy Monday morning here in the Midwest. All those years when I worked I would dream of being able to snuggle in a blanket on the couch with a good book on mornings like this. Now I can and it is just as wonderful as I thought it would be.

The poor dog in the bottom picture had been out for a walk and was making a dash home.

This is going to be a busy week, my sisters and I are giving my niece a baby shower Saturday and Saturday night we are having the whole family over at her house because my brother and his family ( her Dad) are coming in from PA for the shower and we have not all been together for a long, long time. It is going to be the biggest shower we have ever done, 82 so far! I have a to do list a mile long.

I think I posted that the Dr. came back with a firm diagnosis of psuedo prophyria, which means I stopped taking the NSAIDS last Thursday, needless to say Wow do I hurt. I have been taking these kinds of drugs since my 20's and I didn't know how bad my joints had gotten. But the Dr. called this morning and they have a new drug for me to take, which should not effect my skin!! Yeah! Still have to wear sunscreen head to toe every day, but that's ok, I can do that. I am hoping the new drug will work and this will be just a blip on the screen. Unfortunely it will take about a month for my skin to be completely healed, but I should not get any new blisters.

Today I am finally getting my hair cut, YEAH. Believe it or not it has been six months since I have had it cut. This winter in AZ I decided to go really short, YIKES!!!, needless to say I hated it and have been letting it grow out ever since. If it looks even reasonably good I will post a pictue tomorrow.

Hope everyone has a good week.
