Does a Monday morning ever go by without someone asking you how your weekend was? I got to work and was bombarded with the question and this week I didn't have a thing to say. Didn't feel good the whole weekend so we did nothing except managed to go grocery shopping, make a trip to Target and watch several epsiodes of Quantum Leap and Battlestar Gallactica. I found that when you don't have anything to say it's good to have at least a change in your appearance to deflect the pitty looks for not having done anything on your weekend. Luckily, I had a new hair cut and color job so I was able to skip the fact that I didn't have any exciting plans to report. Last week I awoke with that I can't this hair anymore attitude and booked an appointment. I went back to bright blonde as opposed to darker blonde with brown streaks I had for the wedding. It was refreshing to go get your hair done after spending the weekend in pain. Luckily for me, the new hair color must have done something to my stomache to make me feel better. Or maybe the chemicals they put on my head did something to make me feel better? Who knows? My pains are so random I am just glad they are gone. "Go to the Doctor" you say. I have gone several times but they never offer up anything to help so I choose to wait it out. It usually goes away with enough time and IBP. One fun thing we managed to do before the sickness of my stomache took over was through a dinner party last Thursday Night. My hubby dug up some Bobby Flay recipes and made a kick ass dinner, the Food Network would be proud of. Even his presentation got all A's. All the dinner guests were very impressed by his cooking and all asked to be invited again. I must say his peanut/bbq sauce for the shrimp skewers was the tastiest thing I have tasted in a while! I finally made those Sprinkes Cupcakes from the mix they sell at William Sonoma and man, oh man! were they ever good. I now have the secret to their frosting which may be dangerous for me!
As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen. If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public. Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me. Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
