Oh wow!

I knew it had been quite some time since I updated here but somehow I missed the entire month of September. I don't quite know how that happened. I apologize to those of you who were used to getting updates a lot more frequently.

September 8 was the one year anniversary of my surgery. My protein levels are still way too low. I have to drink some protein now. A friend gave me some Muscle Milk to try and it isn't that horrid. It isn't the best thing I have ever had to drink but I can tolerate it so I will start drinking a couple of those per day. My B-12 was low but I think I know why and that has been taken care of. My weight remains near 270 right now bouncing up and down the same 3-4 lbs. I wonder if my body is just resting and catching up with all I have put it through the last year?

I had another surgery last month. I had noticed a knot in the incision where I had the growth removed from my left leg three years ago. Asked my surgeon, thinking it was just scar tissue and he said 'no way'. So, I had a small surgical procedure to remove whatever it was. He said it appeared to be a water filled cyst. It was sent to pathology to be sure it is nothing to worry about and that's the last I heard. Hopefully, I will be notified of test results soon but I am not really worried about it at all.

Still exercising and almost enjoying it. I only manage to go once a week right now. Work has been extremely stressful and I try to tell myself to just be thankful that I have a job right now. It isn't easy but I am managing.

Mandi and Chloe still live with us and it is a rocky road most days. Mandi still does not have a job though she is looking. She had found one then had no car and we couldn't find one we could afford so she had to pass. Having a job to do money drops was a requirement of the job. Hopefully she will find something else soon.

I will try to get back here more often. I want to make time this weekend to visit all of my friend's blogs and reconnect. I feel badly that I have let this go for so long. Know that those of you who have read here for so long are never far from my thoughts. Take care and God bless!
