Victory. 365/365 Project 365 is now closed. Its purpose was to keep me distracted during the toughest part of the treatment protocol for Lyme disease. But it did more than that. It kept my sense of wonder about the world around me alive. Those with Lyme disease know just how hard it is to stay […]
"A little FIR for my furs is just what the doctor ordered." - 361/365
Up in the Grill 362/365 Friday I went for my first IV IG infusion treatment. Since it's a blood product and risky, the nurse has to monitor the patient's vitals and symptoms every 30 minutes. It's about 4-6 hour drip depending on how the patient tolerates it.

355/365 Crossfit ain't got nothin' on a cracker's core power! The other day, he took care of his business (#2) while balancing on only one front paw. Sorry Internet, I had no camera to catch the action. You'll just have to take my word for it. He happened to choose a spot with a bunch of […]
"My name is Juno. Hear me ROAR!" (In a barely audible whisper: "roar.") Juno rarely barks. When she does, we giggle.

The only things that should fear her are buttered baguettes, live chickens and moles. […]
