Interestingly enough I felt better this morning when I got up. Spent a lot of last night trying to come up with a title for an inspirational romantic suspense about an ex-black ops guy who wants to put his past behind him and settle down in a small town but can’t because someone blames him …
Well, I saw the endocrinologist yesterday, and yes, we’re going to do the radioactive iodine treatment in four weeks. Starting today, I stop taking the thyroid hormone which means eventually I’m going to feel terrible, but we need to make sure the thyroid cells that are left are as receptive to the iodine as they …
Yesterday I saw the surgeon who took my thyroid out. I saw him the day after the surgery and he told me that everything looked good; there had been no sign of cancer. This was a non-issue to me. I’d had nodules on my thyroid for about 15 years so the idea of cancer seemed …

Today is apparently Filch it Friday, something I was unaware of previously. My friend, Domestic Goddess, got this from someone else, and I’m filching it from her. She asked readers to tell her their pet peeves in FIFTEEN WORDS (Fifteen word Friday or something like that). So, here goes. Teenage girls who drive my car …
Okay, possibly it’s because it seems to pile up faster than I can deal with it, but honestly, how does a family of four wear so many clothes and yet have so many in the laundry all the time? Right now I have about five or six bag of clothes in the back of my …
