Uninspired

Sorry, I’ve been hardly back to this blog and I’m already feeling uninspired.  I’m kinda that way with all of my life right now though. The gloom of fall has overcome me and I’m ever so thankful my doctor has talked me out of going off my antidepressants until spring.  He was right. The winter… Continue reading Uninspired

They Have My Pee

After Silas’ therapist came to take him this morning Isaac and I ventured to the biomedical lab for our tests.  Ikey did a great job of peeing in a cup, making me extremely jealous of the male anatomy, and then offered to hold my cup for me while I peed.  I politely declined.  But I… Continue reading They Have My Pee
