A busy week

Wow. I started writing this on Friday and it’s Saturday… Oh, well!
And it’s August! Sheesh! Where did the summer go? This weekend is the kick-off of Art Unraveled and Joanne is in town. I’m heading out to see her in a while. It seems like just a few weeks ago I was meeting Joanne in [...]

Countdown to France

We’ve officially reached the 10-day countdown to our trip! Woo!
So, right now I’m at home getting my monthly IV my treatment so I can be “ready” for the trip with my balance, hopefully, AOK!
This week I did the usual running around to get as much done as possible before my treatment, since I never know [...]

Every Day in May #8

Today I didn’t have much time for drawing. I went to meet Angie for coffee this morning. She’s getting ready to leave on vacation for a week and we were both in need of a visit! Then I had a meeting with a woman who was interested in seeing the Baha. We met at 10:30 [...]

Chicago Report and Passover Preparations

This week, I joined my husband, Dave, on a trip to Chicago, IL. While Dave was at the annual American Academy of Neurology meeting, I met Joanne in Chicago for a few days of fun. We had a fantastic time time!
First, we met for a great dinner at Lockwood, the restaurant in Joanne’s hotel, The [...]

Chicago, Chicago….

So, I got up and showered, dressed for a day of volunteering for Cochlear at the Devonshire Senior Center. They were having [...]

Back at the sewing machine

weekend recap and the start of a new week

It’s been a busy few days. This weekend I was still fending off the fatigue from Wednesday’s treatment. I was itching to get outside, so on Sunday, I think I overdid it. We drove my sister-in-law to the airport for her return to Maryland and then we came home for a short time. Soon after, [...]

About Hearing Implants

On Wednesday, I volunteered for Cochlear Americas. I don’t believe I’ve talked about this on the blog before, so let me give you some history.
I’ve mentioned in the past that I have a chronic illness called Auto-Immune Inner Ear Disease. I’ve talked about the vertigo and the treatment I’ve had; however, on my 21st birthday, [...]

Of health

I’ve been working hard the past week. I’ll share photos tomorrow, since I’m not planning to take photos this evening! I prefer the daylight background with my lighting. I have been working on some drawings and I have been creating some cell phone purses for my friend’s shop that will open later this [...]
