Random stuff

I am behind on stuff again . . . I will do a post about my birthday and trip to see the Schneiders soon :).

In the meantime, I have to record some words that B has picked up in the last week. She says, very clearly, "bathroom", "fresh", and "bicycle". At not even 22 mos, it is absolutely hillarious to hear such big words coming from someone so small.

Oh, and a quote for the day - one that Craig the political scientist likes a lot - from Winston Churchill. "Democracy is the worst form of government. Except for all others"

She turned me into a newt! A newt? . . . . . . . I got better . . .

A really funny quote from Monty Python. For some reason I relate to that a lot with my random illness. I still have no idea what is going on, and U of W has had my CT for over a month now. Not real impressed. But the good news is that despite the fact that no one can tell me what is wrong with me, I am improving. Probably 1 in 3 temperature reads are normal, and my energy level is slowly but surely increasing. There has been a lot of progress in the last month. And really, getting adequate sleep (according to what I need - not the "average" number most ppl do just fine with) is do-able. I have to plan around it and budget my energy, and it's annoying but, in the grand scheme of things its really nothing to complain about. So here's to improvement and hoping for more improvement! And no longer being a newt :).
