More Home Improvement
The internets say that the average lifespan of wallpaper paste is ten years.
My question is who is the contractor that sold his freaking soul to the devil to get the wallpaper paste on my bathroom wall??? This crap is like rhino snot! Seriously, I can tell that it's been on the wall for at least 20 years and it's still stuck on there like a nun's panties.

New Meds
Before you get an antibiotic for a UTI, urine has to be tested.
Before you get antibiotics for an infection, your blood is tested to see what meds will work on that specific infection.
But what kind of test is done for anti-depressants? What would happen if Alan, who doesn't need anti-depressants, takes Prozac?
I went to the doctor yesterday for a backache and while there I expressed concern that Celexa wasn't working for me the way it used to. I was perscribed Pristiq and was told that it has the seritonine reuptake inhibators like Celexa, as well as norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. But what does that mean in layman's terms?
I just want to feel better. I want to not take 2 hour naps everyday. And I want to WANT to do dishes and fold laundry and take care of the house and my family like I used to. I want to WANT to leave the house and meet new people and do new things.
It seems that more people than ever take some kind of anti-depressant, but how do the doctors decide that someone needs to be on something like that and how do they know which drug to prescribe and how much to prescribe?
I also had a million vials of blood drawn to find out why my hair is falling out. I'll let you know what's going on with that when I find out.
Right side:
Left Side: My hair is growing back in whispy little bits; not like it was before.
On a positive note, because of these pictures I've decided not to dye my hair anymore. It's kind of a pretty color, isn't it? heh.

Lilly's baby sweater
Made this one for Carroll's little girl. Of course in TX she may grow out of it before she can wear it!
Chunky Cable Sweater
This is the baby sweater I finished for my Aunt Jeannie. Fun little pattern from the book Adorable Knits for Tots by Zoe Mellor.
And Then You Had a Duh Moment....
Of all the germy things in and around us, soap dispensers are the least of my worries. I mean, what's ALWAYS the next thing you do after touching the germy soap dispenser? You lick your fingers! Wrong, you wash your hands. Duh. Duh. Duh.
What a money-making gimmick.

Missing the James Family Already
We just had our 1st Memphis visitors!
Cortland's honorary cousins just left and it feels too quite already. We had so much fun playing and hanging out. And I swear Shauna's husband, Cullen, and Alan are twins separated at birth. It was such a great visit.
Left to Right: Tori, Cortland, Sarah and Gabriel
Shauna may kill me for posting her 3AM picture. One minute it was 10PM and the next thing I know it's three in the morning.
