Today is almost over and I haven't strangled anyone yet.  This, to quote Martha Stewart, is a good thing.

Face it; some days, this is as positive as I can get!

Couple of my co-workers came to visit me today.  It was so great to see them both and just to carry a conversion with someone.  I've been stuck in the house for almost 4 weeks since my tranplant.  Going crazy, but today was GREAT!!!

Come to think of it, nothing is funny anymore.

Nothing that I post here is intended for fact but rather for exploration into my personal thought processes.  Any slight, use of words with multiple connotations or other percieved insults are totally unintended.  I reserve my insults for private.

My daily positive for today is I slept in pretty much most of the day and now, I am feeling soooooo good, that I think I am going to BAKE, yeah, BAKE!!!   This is coming from someone who only eats frozen dinners or does take-out but, tomorrow our church is having our monthly fellowship dinner and I think I am going to go out and get ingredients to make this recipe for lemon cookies, that G-Ma (Ann) sent to me, thank you very much, Ann.   The recipe sounds sooooo easy, that is the ONLY reason, I am even going to attempt to make it!    Wish me luck!   :clap;
