My cuddle bug

Yeah, my life is about cuddling my cats. Peaches is the most photogenic, so she'll be the one used the most.

My health has been having its ups and downs. My liver numbers have improved on my new medication. This is a treatment, not a cure. The hope is to extend the life of my sick liver in order to avoid a transplant as long as possible. Once they start swapping out body parts, you have to start taking a lot of medications to avoid rejection. This increases risk of infection, blah, blah, blah.

The big problem of the moment is my eyes. My eyes are extremely dry, which is affecting my vision. In addition, my vision can no longer be corrected to 20/20. So I'm on the road to legal blindness (although I'm not there yet). I'm writing in my spare time when I can. It will get easier once I get my new glasses. We are stalling to see if the drops and eye ointments I'm taking can improve things a bit.

My eye problems are a combo of aging (don't get older, it's a trap) and my liver disease.

The best news is that I'm in far less pain. I'm convinced the abdominal pain I was in was caused by my out-of-control liver disease. Knock wood that this trend continues.

I'm hoping to go to Chicago later this spring to see the museums. It's one of my favorite things to do. Last time I went, I stared at Monets until I couldn't take it anymore. I find it one of the best ways to relax and be inspired.

I still check the Flickrs of people I follow. So many of you are doing amazing things. So if I give a fave or a comment, yes, it's really me. No, I haven't been hacked. Lol

Although I'm no longer involved with Attention SL magazine, I'm kept informed, and there's some exciting news coming up in the future. So, stay tuned.

Anyway, that's what is going on with me. Health is mostly better. Vision sucks. Family is great. My cats are all spoiled.

Much love ❤️
