Sunday blog post

Last Sunday morning, 10 AM, I found myself at Hives Theater in Saint Paul for my first ever musical improv session there. It was early, but I liked it because it allowed me to still wind into the rest of the day. The session was filled with glittery, giggly laughter 😄, and somehow that made us feel closer as a group as we explored the music and scenes together.

Earlier this week, I had an upper endoscopy, and while the results were inconclusive, I finally feel like I have a better handle on what’s going on. I think allergies or asthma have been triggering reactions because I started reading up on how gerd can initiate asthma and breathing issues, I started nedi pots and it helped, this could also explain why eating certain foods has been so challenging lately as my throat will completely close up (or at least the feeeling of it)  A short round of Prednisone 💊 seems to be helping, and I’m slowly stepping out of that months-long period of discomfort.

On the health front, I also met with my orthopedic doctor, and we’re moving forward with reinstating my disability parking sticker 🅿️. Somehow, my old one had disappeared, so it feels like a nice little bonus to get it back.

Minnesota has been buried in snow lately ❄️, but surprisingly, I didn’t run into too many issues. Well… except for a classic Minnesota road rage moment 😬. Apparently, if you drive even slightly slower than someone’s ideal 50 mph on snowy roads, they’ll find a way around you, often crossing two yellow lines, just to fishtail past.

As the week winds down, I’ve been diving into some new reads 📚. I picked up Booked for Murder, part of the Juniper series, which reminded me of How to Solve Your Own Murder with its clever, slow-burn mystery and humor. I’ve also been exploring TJ Nelson’s mischievous mysteries, and revisiting The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, which is sardonic and energetic and continues to be captivating.

  6. My mom was supposed to have a colonoscopy and and upper endoscopy a while back and she did all the horrible prep you have to do, but then when she got to the doctor's office they wouldn't do the procedure because her blood pressure was too high. So now she's refusing to do any of that prep again to have it done. Which means she just keeps suffering in some ways I guess. We had our first snowy day a week ago and when they released us from school early, I just drove slowly home, it's not worth having an accident to me, but like you had some people driving crazy, there were those on the road here too. I hope you've had a good week! Mine has been crazy, so sorry to just be getting back to check out your post!
