Long Over-due Update

Here is what is happening in our simple little lives. For my 50th birthday, I decided to spend a few days in the hospital. I ended up with Viral Meningitis. As if that wasn't enough, I have been home, unable to drive for the past two weeks fighting the insurance company! Can I just say how much I HATE insurance. You can't be without it but ....... I saw a Neurologist in the hospital. I liked him. He ordered my meds for seizures, brain scans, etc. Of course, now, I can't see him because he isn't a "Provider". My doctor doesn't want me to see the only neurologist in Southern Indiana that is a "Provider." I will be playing Russian Roulette with a Neurologist. BLAH!~~

Larry is working his first full week of the year. That is both good and bad. Good because we need the money, bad because that leaves me home alone all week and most evenings. Next week should be better...... Plus~ Amanda and her kids are coming to keep me company this weekend. YEAH!!

Each day I feel a little better, clean a little, nap a little, watch too much TV, and check my email.

The guys are coming today to put in the new pool liner. I am not sure I will be able to swim this year, depending on how long I am on seizure meds. We are also having some yard work done but they are slower than me!!

So, all is back to normal in the Porter household for now. Spring is here, and I am putting in some strawberry plants!!! and a garden~!

I am glad you continue to improve each day. I am surprised you are putting in a garden because I thought your neighborhood didn't allow one. You will have to post some pictures! Enjoy the visit with Amanda's family.
