Hello readers out there in internet land! Since I wrote last
in August, I’ve had a few blog post beginnings that either did not capture my
attention or were too fraught to make sense of and stick with. I’ll say quickly
that a few days after coming home, life went abruptly back to normal. In-services
started for a new school year, then the year itself, and finally my two courses
at the U kicked off last week. I’ve been very, happily, busy. My energy levels
are better than I can remember, and I’m no longer cold all the time. In fact,
and I can’t remember if I mentioned this, but I sweat now. Like, a lot. And
that’s new for me. I assume that’s the price of having a lot of energy, and
I’ll take it. The kidney continues to work like a dream, my days are full, and
C and I have travel plans coming up. Life is good.
Next Friday, the 23rd, marks 100 days
post-transplant; the benchmark for being out of the high-risk woods. To
celebrate all of this wonderfulness, we’re hosting a party! I sent an email to
a few folks last week and meant to follow-up with this invite and it got away
from me. But please join us! I’m not going to post our address here - you
either know where we live already or know me well enough to ask. J We’ll have some snacks
and some beverages, and you’re welcome to bring something to share if you like.
The event is spouse, partner, friend, parent, kiddo, etc, friendly. We have
dogs as an FYI for those with allergies. We’ll get underway around 7 and
probably wrap up in the 10 – 11 range like responsible adults.
I hope to see you on the 23rd! Thanks for
reading!
