Horrible Blogger!

I think that describes me.  I'm trying like heck to keep up with this blog, but honestly, I don't consider my blogging to be very good lately...

All that being said... I have some updates.

First, Miss Addy!  She had her 15 month check-up.  She now weighs in at 20lb 13.5oz (and that was after a BIG lunch!) and is 30.5inches tall.  She is long and lean!  She did take a nice growth spurt from her 12month check-up and went from the 8% to the 19.75%, so Dr. K was super happy with that.  And, her height, well, she went from around the 30th% to the 53%.  So, she's just going to be tall.  I tell ya though, clothes are a semi-nightmare with her!  We typically stick to leggings and dresses with tights (she looks really cute in them!), because just about any pair of pants that are LONG enough, simply FALL off of her.  And, she's not shy about it.  If her pants are slipping, she'll take them off herself and then hand them to you.  Well, she does at home anyway.

And, here's a short video of Miss Addy.  It's way cute.  We did Remodeling and Energy Expo and Addy went with us to set-up as Charley had to work.  Well, she was NOT very helpful.  She clung to Grandma and then finally Grandma got her occupied with a box of mini-frisbees.  Well, then this is what she decided to do with them...


And, well, there were 24 frisbees under that shower, but hey, she had fun!   (And, yes, she has her own Bayer's Plumbing onsies! ).

As for me?
Well, not so good.  Luckily, my surgeon is giving me pain pills.  I'm not abusing them by any sense.  It's a Norco, and I take maybe 1-3 a day.  But, yes, I'm still taking daily pain pills, my bowel frequency has let up a tad, but not nearly enough.  The steroids still make me feel horrible, but I'm hanging in there, I guess.  I did have a REALLY bad night last night.  Something I ate I guess.. but it triggered me and wow... I even needed to to take a Phenergan because I become so completely nauseated.  Well, it also made me sleep REALLY well...

All that aside, I'm just struggling to stay afloat.  Between work and taking care of Addy, life is just simply "tough" right now.  I'm completely overwhelmed again, but it's just because I've been sick for over 5 months and still no true relief.  I'm having to do whatever I can to just take care of me, Addy, and work.  But, I'm making it work...somehow..someway....

We leave this coming Sunday to get infusion #2 on Monday.  Wish us a safe drive there and back...lots of deer this time of year!
