Cutter Ants?

Nov6

I took a photo of them while walking my granddaughter home from school. They are busy carrying leaves that are much larger than themselves.

Yesterday was a long day at the hospital. They removed my picc line. Which makes me feel more normal. But they started me on maintenance chemo, which will make me feel bad again. I have to take 2 pills per day for a year, unless I feel so sick to my stomach and they’ll cut it back. I’m trying to get the 10 pills I normally take first thing down, then will take the chemo pill.

I took my first one last night and am getting ready to take the second one this morning. It’s fun and foggy this morning. More like a Halloween day. 🙂

I’m off to work!

Hope you have a brilliant day!

Boy and Chipmunk

Oct29

We have tons of squirrels, no chipmunks!

Well, it turned cold. 42 this morning, and only a high of 67. I know that’s high for some, but for us, that’s cold. Last night, we walked through a haunted Halloween trail. That was fun. My 8-year-old granddaughter wanted to walk it again. My 4-year-old grandson said it was too spooky, so I sat with him during the second walkthrough. But we walked from my home, so I got plenty of exercise.

Back to edits on Wolfish. It won’t be ready for Halloween. *sigh*

Hope your week is going great!

Carolina Anole in Transition

Sep19

I have never seen them in transition before. I thought it was really cool. Hope you like it too.

Off to more appointments. Have a great day!

The Woodpecker and the Cardinal

Sep12

Usually they don’t stand their ground, but these two did over the seeds in the feeder.

More appointments today, then free for 3 days. Yay!

I’m at the halfway point on Wolfish!

Hope your day is the best it can be!

A Sparrow and Female Cardinal

Sep11

They are both going after the seeds that were scattered by other birds on the feeder.

Well, the good news is that we have another 3-day weekend from drs appts.

The bad news is I went to reorder a pill they want me to take. For a 28-day supply, it was $13,760. So I need to ask them about that tomorrow at my appt.

The good news is that my CT scan for my lungs came out clear. I just have some scarring from the pneumonia in my left lung.

I managed to write 3,000 words yesterday also. Almost to the halfway point on Wolfish!

We’re off today, forgot to put out the trash. I’m off to write some more.

Have a wonderful day!

Cardinal Eating

Sep10

I only got 1,000 words written on Wolfish, but I had great medical news.

For the first time in over two years, my white blood cell count is normal! Platelets are normal! And Neutrophils are normal.

Red blood cells are slower to recover so they’re still low and can cause fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath. Which I have. It makes me feel better knowing what the problem is that I feel these things when walking. Also hemoglobin is low. It will take time for the red blood cells to build back up.

Oh, and the bone marrow biopsy came back normal! So no new cancer cells! Still waiting on the DNA results.

We’re off to a CT scan this morning to see how my lungs are after having pneumonia and other doctor appointments.

Hope you all have a great day!

Blue Jay Drinking at the Fountain

Sep9

When the fountain wasn’t working, I was so disappointed. All the birds flock to it.

I reached 9,000 on Wolfish! I hope to make the novella about 30K.

Today and tomorrow, and Friday I have drs appointments. It looks like Thurs we have off and hopefully the weekend.

Hope your day is going fine!

Replaced My Ceramic Bird Bath

Sep8

With a plastic one after a raccoon destroyed my ceramic one. It works great and I’m happy to have it. I put the remnants of the ceramic one in the flowerbeds to look like broken shards in a Roman garden. 🙂

I’m not feeling well today, nauseous and couldn’t sleep at all last night. I’m taking a nausea pill before breakfast to hopefully help me keep down my meal. One of the pills I’m taking twice a day causes nausea. Or it could be from Graft Host Disease due to the transplant.

Otherwise, I’m nearly to 6,000 words on Wolfish, the Halloween novella. I plan on about 30,000 words. So a nice start. Both Wolf Heir and Tashama are with my beta readers.

Hope you are feeling bright and chipper. My daughter and granddaughter are sick so it’s a good thing my son is here. I can’t be around anyone who is sick.

Missing the Birds

Sep7

No food, no water, no birdsong.

I had been gone for 5 weeks, and my fountain wasn’t working when we had a power outage while I was in the hospital. I hadn’t been filling the bird feeders. It sounded quiet and sad.

Then I returned home to be with my son for the month, and he fixed my water fountain, and I began feeding the birds. They’ve flocked back to the yard and filled it with birdsong. I love it!

Hope birds singing fills your days!

Tashama Cover Reveal

Working on final edits, then off to my beta readers. I wrote this book about 10 years ago, so glad to finally update it and get it ready for publication. 🙂
