Long time, no blogging! Yikes!

Wow, I didn't realize that it had been so long since I blogged.  I think with the holidays, everything got away from me.  If I was one to make New Year's resolutions, I would say that I'll blog more, but all I can say is that I'll try. 

Where should I begin?  In October, Lee got me a remission gift and we went to see Impractical Jokers at Foxwoods Casino.  They were great and I haven't laughed that hard in a very long time!!!  We didn't know what to expect with them being live and we were pleasantly surprised to see that they are equally as funny in person.  I was literally crying from laughing so hard.  It was an awesome gift!  I do have to admit that I'm very hesitant to celebrate any milestone this time.  It always kind of feels like the bottom can fall out at any minute.  So, instead of dwelling on that, I really try to enjoy every single thing I get to do and see. 

Speaking of that, this Fall was such a gift.  Every time we were in the car and I was seeing all the trees changing colors, I took a moment to thank God!  I wasn't so sure that I would ever see that again.  That has been happening quite a bit this past year, where I will pause and be grateful, even sometimes for the shitty stuff. 

Christmas was amazing!  My original plans for not doing as much this year went in the crapper.  Lee did his great outdoor decorating and helped with the inside decorating.  I warned people that there probably wouldn't be very many cookies baked, but there were more kinds than ever.  Damn you Pinterest!!!  It took me a long time to make them all, because my energy still sucks, so I could only do one at a time.  Then I found out that my nephew, his wife and my niece, her husband and daughter and my sister were all coming for Christmas Eve and my son had off from work...I could barely contain my excitement!!!  Christmas Eve was on big time!!  We played Cards Against Humanity after dessert, which was a riot.  I really have a bunch of sickos in my family, especially the ones who married into the craziness (Andy, Caroline, Lee).

My health has been fairly steady.  The doctor had to increase my anti-rejection drug, because I reached a low level and my liver is still acting up.  Stupid liver!  My hair is a travesty!  I look like and old man without my wig on.  The sides and very back are growing and there's this lovely tuft right on the top of my head. Oh, and it's all standing straight up with the exception of the back. It's ravishing.  Then the rest of the hair is very sparse, you know, like the old guys who always where baseball caps.  They might look distinguished, but without makeup, I resemble a something out of the Star Wars bar scene!  Scary Shit!!  I'm going to Boston next week for my bimonthly check and a shot of some sort. 

I'm going to attempt to blog once a week or so...that's if I remember.  Sometimes I have shit for brains, but I'll try.
Happy New Year!

Peace Out Peeps!!
