		<title>Welcome Back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had intended to end this blog late last year, and even created a "That's All Folks" post to say goodbye - but I never quite really ended it. In fact, I have more to post and will be updating this blog with some of my writing from the intervening months.]]></description>

		<title>Sudo Get Me A Xanax</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, ended up back at the ER for chest pain, yesterday. They put me back in the hospital just like they did on 5/30 and just like on 5/30 I wanted out, out, out &#8212; but this time I made it through, thanks to some Xanax. Got my stress test and the doc said my [...]]]></description>

		<title>Changes Are Taking The Pace I&#8217;m Going Through</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Started my period yesterday and am expecting to feel a lot better because of it. My periods stopped being 28 days apart 3 or 4 cycles ago. Lately they&#8217;ve been 3 weeks apart, 2 weeks apart, 25 days apart, and very heavy. I suspect this is perimenopause because of my age (44), and I wonder [...]]]></description>

		<title>It’s Gnawed So Bad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love my house. Love my husband, my marriage, my dogs and cats. I love my familiarity with this city, and the cache of living here. I love that we make enough money to get by. Love my parents and that my grandmother (whom I also love) is still alive at 90 years old. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sudo Get Me A Heart Attack</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sitting on the back porch. I love this place. We both do. We&#8217;ve done a ton of demolition here. More than a ton, actually. We finally have things growing in our backyard, and this table on this porch is one of my favorite places to be. I bought 15 plants on Saturday &#8212; 5 Black [...]]]></description>

		<title>Puppy Love</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been nearly a year since we adopted Faith, our newest furry family member. It all began with grief. As soon as we lost Crunch Tator, my trusty old Wheaton Terrier, I started hanging out at the Town Lake Animal Center, our local animal shelter. I would highly recommend this type of therapy to anyone [...]]]></description>

		<title>First (and last) Lenovo Posto</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I purchased a schnazzy Lenovo S10-3t computer from Amazon.com, day before yesterday. I got it today and set it up tonight. I think it&#8217;s going to work great for posting to blogs, and for writing. But I am crazy nervous about the expense. It cost $524, with the RAM upgrade (it max&#8217;s out at 2GB) [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Triangle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The stopping medication thing is falling apart, bit by bit. First off I got the flu (or whatever it was) that didn&#8217;t respond to anything other than Hydromet. Insomnia set in&#8230; and then my asthma took a turn for the worse. So, more albuterol than normal plus the occasional, desperate puff of Symbicort. Then the [...]]]></description>

		<title>AfflictionUpdateHer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll make this quick, since my shift ends in 10 minutes and I don&#8217;t have my own computer at home, anymore. That&#8217;s right. I sold my computer for $950 to help cover some of the money we lost by my being out sick without sick leave for 8 days. In bullet form, here&#8217;s where I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Household Surgery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Blogs are strange things to me. I was resistant to home computing for so many years (despite a career in technology that goes back to the mid-1980&#8242;s) that I didn&#8217;t even know what a blog was until my mother explained it to me a few years ago. And then I was suspicious of blogs &#8211; [...]]]></description>
