Friday, February 6, 2026 I started Mounjaro today for my diabetes. I did not know it costs $1100/month. I was completely freaked out. Keith said my health was worth it. I am not sure. That is SO MUCH. I have a month’s worth to use, so I will do three more shots into my tummy. […]
Thursday, February 5, 2026 Donna, Nancy, and I spent the day visiting in the blue chairs. We could have done something, but I don’t know what that would have been. We went to dinner at Old Southern BBQ and Donna’s brisket on her salad was so fatty it was aaauuughgh. We went to see Keith
Wednesday, February 4, 2026 It’s my birthday! I am 63, born in 1963. It’s my golden year birthday! If that isn’t a thing, it is now. I did not realize it – the sisters told me. I went to teach algebra today and took many, many pounds of tootsie rolls and airheads to share a

Thursday, January 29, 2026 I was inexplicably not tired today. Three days of doing nothing must fill up the reserves. I woke up a couple minutes before my 6am alarm and everything. Keith was already awake. It was weird. It felt good to be at work – normal. Unfortunately, I had jerky kids all day
Wednesday, January 28, 2026 I woke up to Keith saying our flight was delayed 90 minutes. Uh oh. Will we make our connection in Dallas?Yes. Our plane from Dallas to Minneapolis is the same plane as the one we are taking from LA to Dallas. It can’t leave without us. We are so lucky. Keith
