Merry Christmas

Just a quick note to spread some season's greetings and try out this new app... So far, so good. Real post tomorrow!

Magic Legs

Yesterday I had a procedure/surgery done on my left leg to collapse/obliterate my varicose veins. I got there at 945 and was out by noon. It took much longer to numb my leg than to actually kill the vein (with lasers, haha). Dr. Featherston and Matt, the vein tech, were great. I'm feeling really sore and want nothing more than to peel these compression sock (thigh high) off. 24 more hours until that can happen, though. After a series of injections that I will get in Jan and Feb my left leg will be like new. It is going to be fantastic to wear shorts and skirts this spring and summer without being embarrassed by my veins.

The right leg will be more complicated. I'm nervous because if the procedure for the right leg isn't approved by the new year then I am going to have to go through the WHOLE insurance approval process again. That is 3 ultrasounds, various prescriptions, other multiple visits to the doctor... so on and so forth. It's a major headache and a huge inconvenience. It's looking like that's what's going to happen, though. Yup. Fantastic.

Now it's all about recovery and getting the left leg totally tended to.

I'm just glad that the ball is finally rolling.

Welcome

I've finally decided to get my blog back on.

This blog is exactly what it says it is- random. I plan on purging all kidns of daily frustrations, thoughts, annoyances, celebrations and tons of other cool things here. Recipe sharing, pictures of awesome people and things, and updates on life as I know it.

Nothing spectacular, but perhaps it will help keep me level out in this big, bad world.

Let's get this show on the road...
