Meryl's Notes Blog

The October issue of the notes newsletter is out. The intro, of course, mentions Halloween. The neighborhood party starts soon, but I think I’m going to miss out on the fun as the endoscopy (have one every two years because of Barrett’s Esophagus) has taken more out of me than I expected… it probably doesn’t help that it’s cloudy and rained. I think it’s Mom’s fault!

I went to sleep when I came home from the procedure and Mom woke me at 10 because she wanted me to eat something. Kidding, kidding. No, the story is true, but I am kidding about blaming her. That tells you how all together I am today, eh? So I have the dangerous job of handing out candy. After all, if I fail — I’ll be tricked! Oh my, I’m ignoring the doctor’s instructions which say not to operate machinery or do anything dangerous.
