been a while

The last two weeks I've been to London, Scotland, Norway, London, Brighten, back to Arizona. Been walking, on the metro, bus, train, plane, car, more walking. Great to be with the kids. Good times, little bit of grouchiness, more good times. I had trouble keeping up the pace. Last time in London I was healthier with the hep-c then now. Or maybe its a tossup. But I was going at my own speed last time and this time keeping up with my daughter who is Speedy Gonzalez. My son is somewhere in the middle and he did fall back with me from time to time. My back hurt. Am I whining enough?
Easter was nice. Got to Church early. My kids wanted to see a museum across the street. I sat down in the chapel and a girl brings me a cupcake and says Happy Easter. The choir was rehearsing. The cupcake was coconut. It was delicious and the music beautiful. The kids came in as Church as beginning. I enjoyed all the quiet moments of the trip. I'm not as tolerant of noise and crowds as I use to be.
I saw nomad friends. Very nice day. I saw Hepkitty for a quick drink that turned into many drinks (soda) and nice walk to the park. Also looked in some shops. Missed Fishy. Hopefully next time.

Brrr

Had a good day. I sleep well the last two nights and woke early. Did some grocery shopping. Trying to get a three month emergency supply of food. Been making plans for London. Also for Norway and Scotland. Went to the Easter pageant last night. I took a Mexican family. This night it was in Spanish. I had a head set that translated it into English. It was really good. I think 200 people performing in this pageant. Very professional with spotlights, music, dancing. It was outdoors on this huge set. It was also cold to me. I had a jacket and a blanket over me. The wind kicked up. I kept wondering how I"m going to feel in Norway. Brrrr.

Want to keep posting

I have a headache tonight. Very bad. Almost nauseous. I'm going to sleep it off. I've been doing lots of cleaning of paper work. I think my bad eyesight triggered this headache. Its not yet as it was pre tx. I get stressed doing this anyway. Its bill paying, its getting papers for taxes. I am trying to be more grateful for things. For my children, my home, my health. I saw Natalie Cole on Larry King. She feels she has kidney failure from hcv tx. She is looking for a kidney doner. Many things could have gone wrong with tx. Just grateful I came through without serious consequences. Yes my head hurts but tomorrow should be much better after a good nights sleep.

Happy April Fools Day

My cousin told us on face book he had wreaked his motorcycle. After 22 posts he told us April Fools. I had a feeling this was a joke. Fell for it.
I miss the days my kids were little and we'd play jokes on each other. Maybe by next year I'll get my old sparkle back.
