why i haven't blogged

Hello, everyone. for most, my name is mom. for others, christy. that's in case people have forgotten me.

No one ever wants to really know how you feel, so i have not blogged because i am in a tremendous flare since beginning of january. i also have had reactions to several different herbs and/or medicines which have given me severe diarrhea, cramping, or impossible headaches. Not to mention, i have been under a vow of silence to one person who would have killed me if i had spilled the beans about one of the things i have been thinking about lately.

today, i feel ok. so, HI!!

the weather today is better than that heat wave we have been experiencing along with most of the country. yesterday was 76, today it is 70 at 10:30 am. grateful for the break from the dog days.

i am soooooo excited about being a grandmother for the 4th and 5th times!!!! yea!! this is one of the reasons i so want to be healthy....i want to have an impact on my grandchildren's lives. i want to be able to sit on the floor and play with them. i want to be able to hold them for periods of time. i want, someday when they are all a little older, to have cousin camp, where we take all the grandchildren for a few days to a week and do cool things with them while their parents have a break. or hang out together themselves.

i love my family. hope you all know that. that's why i want to live close by in order to interact. i am willing to move once i have money. or why, when i have money, to assist in building my children's homes in order to have a mother-in-law suite so i can visit for periods of time without getting in people's faces.

i guess that's my post of today.

um, that's JULY, not JANUARY. 5 weeks and counting for this flare

if i didn't know how you felt, i wouldn't know if you were alive :-)

that aside, i've got this loft in my planned house that doesn't really have a function yet...that could be your space, i suppose, though it IS upstairs. Nice view out over the whole house though.

I'm happy to hear from you, even if you aren't feeling well. I hope you're able to be healthy again too! We all like to see you!

Ry, what does the first sentence of your response mean?? also, you could consider one of those elevator chair lifts for stairs.
