I also don't have much to say as it was a pretty ordinary day. I will share this: A kid was working with me and suddenly paused and asked, " Have you ever tasted your own earwax?" Depending on the kid I might say, that's a weird question. I'm probably not someone you should be asking. This kid is a popular kid and was trying to be funny by being outrageous. My response was, Really? and then we got back to the assignment.
We are having a nice pre spring week. The trick is to enjoy it for what it is, and not be tricked into thinking winter is over.
I'm so sorry for your daughter having to go through this and you too. Praying for a good outcome. Of course you are willing to fly north and help her through this, because you are the kind of Mom everyone hopes to have.
So sorry DC1 is struggling. Sounds like they have a lot of potential but their head gets in the way.

Gosh Liz we are sorry to hear of DD's continuing issues. Seems like they should do the general anesthetic. Good for you to be willing to travel if she needs you. Doctor's not listening? True. Sending good energy for a good outcome. We are thinking of you both.
More later.

130.5. Will I ever get there?
Shot day today. Took 2 mg. I think I will stick to once per week for a bit and see how that goes for me.
Woman's Bible study was good this morning.
Praying for DC1, mental health still in the crapper, taking more leave from work! I really hope they don't lose their job!
Off soon to get taxes done, yippy!

Liz, so sorry to hear about DD. I like the idea of taking her to the OR and doing general anesthesia for her biopsy. Praying for answers for you all!

It's so hard to be your own advocate too when you're scared. Is there someone who can go with her to push for what she wants? An assertive friend?
I know from experience how painful non-anesthetic IUD insertion is, I can't imagine if they were taking a biopsy down there.
Not much here today either. Jury duty is over. Whew! Almost had to go back today. I was one of 10 potential jurors instructed to report today, but literally while the judge was dismissing the other members of the jury pool the attorneys walked back into the courtroom to tell the judge they had selected the two alternates. Voila! I was excused.
210.9 - exactly the same as yesterday.
I got some nice and emotional personal messages on FB last night after posting my pics and a bit about my journey - mostly from people feeling shame for being on or considering being on a GLP1 medication and thanking me for being open.
Lakeland Terrier puppies have been born. 5 boys, 1 girl... Which means probably no girl puppy for me! Booooo, but I will be more than happy with a little boy, I think!
